Description
TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] The alkaline water electrolysis hydrogen production electrolytic cell adopts a structure in which the polar plate and the electrode are separated, the bipolar plate is usually made of carbon steel, nickel or stainless steel material with a surface nickel plating treatment, and the structural design of the polar plate also affects the electrode resistance of the alkaline water hydrogen production electrolytic cell. On the one hand, the more the contact points between the polar plate and the electrode, the better the current transmission effect; on the other hand, the spherical convex-spherical concave type structure curved surface constitutes the cavity and the circulation channel inside the electrolytic unit, so that the electrolyte cannot directly flow upward when entering the polar plate flow channel of the electrolytic unit, increasing the disturbance of the electrolyte in the electrolytic cell, increasing the mass transfer and heat transfer of the electrolyte in the electrolytic cell, and in the electrolysis process, hydrogen and oxygen sides will continuously have gas bubbles precipitated from the electrode surface, which will form large gas bubbles, which will cause the resistance in the electrolyte to increase, the porous structure between the polar plate and the electrode will reduce the probability of forming large bubbles in the electrolyte, reduce the influence of the three-phase interface resistance, and weaken the influence of the bubbles on the current density. In the related art, the traditional metal polar frame has the disadvantages of being heavy, having large resistance at the welded connection, and being troublesome to process in batches, and the non-metallic polar frame is attracting more and more attention due to its lightweight, no need for insulation treatment, and convenience for unified batch production, but the local stress concentration caused by bolt fastening during overall assembly may cause the non-metallic polar frame to crack during use, and the coordination connection between the non-metallic polar frame and the polar plate is usually in the form of adhesion or the addition of a sealing gasket. In this assembly mode, the sealing property between the polar plate and the polar frame is poor during the electrolysis process, and there may be mutual penetration of gas and liquid on both sides.

[0044] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are illustrated in the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and intended to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0045] The integrated pole frame plate of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. For example... Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the integrated electrode frame plate according to an embodiment of the present invention includes an electrode plate 1, a buffer layer and an electrode frame 2.
[0046] The thickness direction of electrode 1 is the first direction. Electrode 1 is divided into an electrolytic section 11 and an annular connecting section 12 in the inner and outer directions. The connecting section 12 is arranged around the periphery of the electrolytic section 11. The electrolytic section 11 has outwardly protruding nipple structures 111 on both sides in the first direction. Specifically, the nipple structure 11 is a spherical protrusion and is adapted to contact the electrode.
[0047] A buffer layer covers the outer surface of the connecting portion 12, and the volume of the buffer layer can be compressed. For example, the buffer layer is made of a flexible or elastic material.
[0048] The electrode frame 2 is made of engineering plastic and is annular. It is injection molded onto the outside of the buffer layer (and connecting portion 12) so that the buffer layer is located between the electrode frame 2 and the connecting portion 12. The thickness direction of the electrode frame 2 is a first direction, meaning the thickness direction of the electrode frame 2 is consistent with the thickness direction of the electrode plate 1. The electrode frame 2 has an inlet channel 33, a first outlet channel 34, and a second outlet channel 35 extending through it along the first direction. The inner annular surface of the electrode frame 2 forms an anode chamber 31 and a cathode chamber 32 with two sides of the electrolysis section 11 in the first direction, respectively. The anode chamber 31 communicates with the inlet channel 33 and the first outlet channel 34, and the cathode chamber 32 communicates with the inlet channel 33 and the second outlet channel 35. Specifically, the anode chamber 31 and the cathode chamber 32 are located on both sides of the electrolysis section 11 in the first direction. After multiple integral electrode frame plates are stacked in the first direction, a seal, an electrode, and a diaphragm are disposed between adjacent integral electrode frame plates. The electrodes are located within the anode chamber 31 and the cathode chamber 32. After the liquid enters the anode chamber 31 and the cathode chamber 32 through the inlet channel 33, the water in the anode chamber 31 and the cathode chamber 32 is electrolyzed. The oxygen and liquid generated by the electrolysis of the water in the anode chamber 31 can be discharged from the first outlet channel 34, and the hydrogen and liquid generated by the electrolysis of the water in the anode chamber 31 can be discharged from the second outlet channel 35.
[0049] According to the integrated polar frame polar plate of the embodiment of the present application, the polar frame 2 is made of engineering plastic, and the polar frame 2 is injection molded on the outside of the buffer layer, so that, in the process of the shrinkage of the molded polar frame 2, the pressure of the polar frame 2 on the buffer layer makes the volume of the buffer layer compressed and smaller, and the buffer layer can reduce the pressure of the polar frame 2 on the polar plate 1, thereby reducing the deformation of the polar plate 1, so that, after the polar frame 2 is molded, the deformation of the polar plate 1 is smaller, and the flatness of the polar plate 1 is higher. The high flatness of the polar plate 1 can make the contact effect between the designed conductive points (the points of the papillary structure 11) and the electrode better after the electrode and the diaphragm are assembled, and the clamping effect of the papillary structures 11 of the adjacent polar plates 1 on the electrode and the diaphragm is better, thereby making the electrical conduction better. If the polar plate is not flat, some convex points cannot contact the electrode, the number of conductive points is reduced, and the electrochemical performance of the electrolytic cell is directly reduced.
[0050] According to the integrated polar frame polar plate of the embodiment of the present application, the polar frame 2 is made of engineering plastic, and the polar frame 2 is injection molded on the outside of the buffer layer, so that, in the process of the shrinkage of the molded polar frame 2, the pressure of the polar frame 2 on the buffer layer makes the volume of the buffer layer compressed and smaller, and the buffer layer can reduce the pressure of the polar frame 2 on the polar plate 1, thereby reducing the deformation of the polar plate 1, so that, after the polar frame 2 is molded, the deformation of the polar plate 1 is smaller, and the flatness of the polar plate 1 is higher. The high flatness of the polar plate 1 can make the contact effect between the designed conductive points (the points of the papillary structure 11) and the electrode better after the electrode and the diaphragm are assembled, and the clamping effect of the papillary structures 11 of the adjacent polar plates 1 on the electrode and the diaphragm is better, thereby making the electrical conduction better. If the polar plate is not flat, some convex points cannot contact the electrode, the number of conductive points is reduced, and the electrochemical performance of the electrolytic cell is directly reduced.
[0051] Therefore, the integrated polar frame polar plate according to the embodiment of the present application has the advantage of high flatness of the polar plate 1.
[0052] The present application also provides a preparation process of the integrated polar frame polar plate, and the preparation process of the integrated polar frame polar plate according to the embodiment of the present application comprises the following steps:

[0056] Therefore, the integrated polar frame polar plate prepared by the preparation process of the integrated polar frame polar plate according to the embodiment of the present application has the advantage of high flatness to improve the sealing performance.
[0057] As Figures 1 to 5 shown in the following, the integrated pole frame pole plate according to the embodiments of the present application will be specifically explained in combination with the preparation process of the integrated pole frame pole plate according to the embodiments of the present application.
[0058] In step S1, the substrate is cut according to a preset shape to form the pole plate 1, and at least three outwardly protruding positioning points 124 are formed on the outer circumferential surface of the pole plate 1.
[0059] In some embodiments, the outer circumferential surface of the connecting portion body 121 is provided with at least three positioning points 124. Specifically, the outer circumferential surface of the connecting portion body 121 is provided with four positioning points 124. For example, on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting portion body 121, there are four positioning points 124, and two positioning points 124 are arranged on the outer circumferential surface between the first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123. The four positioning points 124 are arranged symmetrically in pairs.
[0060] The first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123 are located on both sides of the connecting portion body 121 in the radial direction. For example, the first clamping plate 122 is located directly below the second clamping plate 123.
[0061] In step S1, the pole plate 1 is stamped to form the papillary structure 111 protruding outward in the thickness direction of the pole plate 1. The electrolytic portion 11 is provided with a plurality of outwardly protruding papillary structures 111 on both sides in the first direction. For example, the substrate adopts carbon steel or stainless steel plate material, and first uses laser cutting to cut the outer shape of the substrate. The single die is provided with uniformly distributed protruding stamping heads inside, and the pole plate 1 can be formed by stamping process using a single die.
[0062] In some embodiments, the stamping pressure during the stamping forming process of the pole plate 1 is 1 MPa to 5 MPa. For example, the stamping pressure during the stamping forming process of the pole plate 1 is 3 MPa.
[0063] The forming time during the stamping forming process of the pole plate 1 is 20 s to 50 s; for example, the forming time during the stamping forming process of the pole plate 1 is 40 s.
[0064] The pressure maintaining time during the stamping forming process of the pole plate 1 is 1 s to 5 s; for example, the pressure maintaining time during the stamping forming process of the pole plate 1 is 4 s.
[0065] As Figures 1 to 5 shown in some embodiments, the connecting portion 12 includes a connecting portion body 121, a first clamping plate 122 and a second clamping plate 123.
[0066] The connecting portion body 121 is annular, and the connecting portion body 121 is annularly arranged on the circumferential side of the electrolytic portion 11. Specifically, the electrolytic portion 11 is a circular plate, and the connecting portion body 121 is a circular ring.
[0067] The first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123 are arranged on the outer circumferential surface of the connecting portion body 121, each of the first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123 forms an included angle with the outer circumferential surface of the connecting portion body 121, and the thickness direction of the first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123 is the first direction. Specifically, the first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123 are protruding structures at the edges of the connecting portion body 121, so that when the pole frame 2 is wrapped at the edges of the pole plate 1, the pole frame 2 is stably connected with the pole plate 1.
[0068] The liquid inlet channel 33 penetrates the first clamping plate 122, and the first outlet channel 34 and the second outlet channel 35 penetrate the second clamping plate 123. That is, the liquid inlet channel 33, the first outlet channel 34 and the second outlet channel 35 are arranged on the pole plate 1 and the pole frame 2, and the pole plate 1 can support the area of the liquid inlet channel 33, the first outlet channel 34 and the second outlet channel 35 of the pole frame 2, so as to improve the structural strength of the integrated pole frame and pole plate. For example, the edges of the first clamping plate 122 and the second clamping plate 123 away from the connecting portion body 121 are arc-shaped edges. The first clamping plate 122 provided with the liquid inlet channel 33 and the second clamping plate 123 provided with the first outlet channel 34 and the second outlet channel 35 are machined at the corresponding positions of the two radial ends of the pole plate 1.

For example, the thickness of the buffer layer is 1.5 mm.
[0070] In some embodiments, the buffer layer is made of foamed nickel. After the pole plate 1 is subjected to nickel plating treatment, the pole plate 1 edge (connecting portion 12) is wrapped with foamed nickel or other porous materials.

Specifically, the mold temperature during injection is between 150 and 210 degrees Celsius; the melt temperature during injection is between 330 and 400 degrees Celsius; the single injection time during injection is between 1 and 100 seconds, which varies with the size of the pole frame 2; the holding pressure after injection is between 85 and 98 percent of the injection pressure; and the holding time after injection is between 5 and 12 seconds. For example, the mold temperature during injection is 200 degrees Celsius; the melt temperature during injection is 350 degrees Celsius; the single injection time during injection is between 60 seconds; the holding pressure after injection is 90 percent of the injection pressure; and the holding time after injection is 10 seconds.

[0074] In some embodiments, the engineering plastic is glass fiber modified polyether ether ketone, and the pole frame 2 is made of glass fiber modified polyether ether ketone.
