Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of composite diaphragms for hydrogen production by water electrolysis, and particularly relates to a high-toughness composite diaphragm for hydrogen production by water electrolysis in alkaline and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] Hydrogen production by water electrolysis in alkaline has higher efficiency, lower cost and better safety. However, traditional diaphragms often have challenges in stability and mechanical performance under working conditions, so new materials and structures are needed to meet the requirements of actual working conditions. Therefore, researchers have begun to explore new materials, such as special polymers, inorganic nanomaterials or composite materials, for the preparation of composite diaphragms with high ion transport performance and good mechanical strength. The design of diaphragm structure and process optimization are also the focus of related technology development, by adjusting the pore structure, thickness and surface properties of the diaphragm, etc., to achieve efficient preparation and stable performance. The development of this technology will provide reliable technical support for hydrogen production by water electrolysis in alkaline, promote the development of hydrogen energy industry, and make greater contributions to the field of clean energy.
[0003] For example, the existing Chinese patent CN115161702A discloses a preparation method of a high-toughness cross-linked organic-inorganic composite alkaline water electrolysis diaphragm. The invention uses a polyphenylene sulfide net as a support body, and a polysulfone-pore-forming agent-hydrophilic inorganic particles-peroxide cross-linking agent as a casting solution for the composite diaphragm. The casting solution is formed into a film by the immersion precipitation phase inversion method, and after film formation, cross-linking reaction occurs through high-temperature hot pressing operation, forming a spatial network structure inside the film. The three-dimensional pore structure can effectively organize the permeation of gas molecules, ensuring the purity of the gas. In addition, the zirconium porosity can improve the overall porosity of the modified diaphragm, thereby reducing its surface resistance. However, this scheme has the following defects: The diaphragm is prone to rupture under certain mechanical forces, has poor toughness, and the bubble point of the diaphragm is prone to decrease during use, the hydrogen concentration in oxygen increases, and the safety decreases; The nanoparticles are prone to agglomeration in the polymer matrix, causing stress concentration and reducing the toughness of the diaphragm. SUMMARY
[0004] The purpose of the present application is to provide a high-toughness composite diaphragm for hydrogen production by water electrolysis in alkaline and a preparation method thereof, which aims to solve the above problems.
[0005] The present application is mainly realized by the following technical solutions: The application discloses a high-toughness alkaline electrolytic water hydrogen production composite diaphragm, which comprises, in percentage by mass, 10wt%-30wt% of polysulfone, 1wt%-20wt% of soft chain segment monomer, 0.001wt%-0.1wt% of catalyst, 1wt%-5wt% of pore former and 70wt%-90wt% of inorganic nano-oxide particles modified by a silane coupling agent, the mass ratio of the polysulfone to the inorganic nano-oxide particles modified by the silane coupling agent being 1:3-8, the soft chain segment monomer comprising a long alkyl chain segment, an ether bond and an ester group, and the inorganic nano-oxide particles being any one or more of silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide and zirconium dioxide and having a median particle size of D50=0.2-1um.
[0006] In order to better realize the application, further, the polysulfone is any one or more of polysulfone, sulfonated polysulfone, polyether sulfone, polyarylene ether sulfone, tertiary aminated polysulfone and chloromethyl polysulfone.
[0007] In order to better realize the application, further, the soft chain segment monomer is any one or more of methyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, ethylene pyrrolidone, ethylene glycol diacrylate and trimethylolpropane triacrylate.
[0008] In order to better realize the application, further, the catalyst is azobisdimethyl valeronitrile or dibenzoyl peroxide, and the pore former is polyvinyl pyrrolidone and / or polyvinyl alcohol.
[0009] In order to better realize the application, further, the silane coupling agent is any one or more of acryloyloxy triisopropyl silane, 3-(trimethoxysilyl) methyl methacrylate, vinyl triethoxysilane and vinyl trimethoxysilane.
[0010] The application is mainly realized through the following technical scheme: The application discloses a preparation method of a high-toughness alkaline electrolytic water hydrogen production composite diaphragm, which is used for preparing the high-toughness alkaline electrolytic water hydrogen production composite diaphragm and comprises the following steps: Step S1: preparing a casting solution; The inorganic nano-oxide particles modified by the silane coupling agent are dispersed in a solvent to prepare a dispersion liquid, then the soft chain segment monomer and the catalyst are added into the dispersion liquid and uniformly mixed and stirred at a rotating speed of 1500-3000r / min for 2-8h, then the polysulfone and the pore former are added into the dispersion liquid in sequence and uniformly stirred, and finally, the dispersion liquid is subjected to defoaming treatment to prepare the uniformly dispersed casting solution; Step S2: preparing a composite diaphragm; The casting solution prepared in step S1 is coated onto both sides of the polyphenylene sulfide mesh and transferred to an oven for thermally initiated polymerization. The oven temperature is 50~120℃ and the holding time is 0.5~5min. After polymerization is completed, it is immersed in a coagulation bath for phase transformation. The temperature of the coagulation bath is 10~50℃. Finally, the composite membrane is prepared.
[0011] To better realize the present invention, further, in step S1, the preparation of silane coupling agent modified inorganic nano-oxide particles includes the following steps: Step A1: Disperse the inorganic nano-oxide particles in a solvent and stir evenly at a speed of 1500~2500 r / min for 1~5 h to ensure thorough dispersion; the mass ratio of the inorganic nano-oxide to the solvent is 1:0.8~1.5. Step A2: Add silane coupling agent to carry out modification reaction, and the reaction temperature is 50~100℃, and the reaction time is 2~8h.
[0012] To better realize the present invention, further, in step A1, the solvent is any one or more of N,N-dimethylformamide, N,N-dimethylacetamide, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethyl sulfoxide, ethanol, and water.
[0013] To better realize the present invention, in step S2, the coagulation bath is water and / or ethanol.
[0014] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: (1) This invention first modifies inorganic nano-oxide particles in a solvent using a silane coupling agent with double bonds. After modification, the nanoparticles are less prone to agglomeration in the polymer matrix, thus improving the membrane toughness. Then, a monomer with soft segments and polysulfone is added, along with an initiator and a pore-forming agent to prepare a slurry. This slurry is coated onto the surface of a PPS mesh and subjected to thermally initiated free radical polymerization of the soft segments and double bonds. The membrane is then prepared by non-solvent-induced phase separation. In this process, the inorganic nano-oxide particles are more uniformly dispersed after modification. The process simultaneously achieves the grafting of soft segments and the preparation of the membrane. The introduction of soft segments into the matrix significantly improves the toughness of the membrane. The formation of an interpenetrating network structure reduces the rigidity of the polysulfone polymer, resulting in a membrane with good toughness in the dry state. The process is simple and easy to industrialize.
[0015] (2) The soft-chain monomer mainly contains long alkyl segments, ether bonds, and ester groups. The main chain of the polysulfone contains benzene rings, which are brittle and prone to cracking under impact. By introducing the soft-chain polymer as a stress concentration point and a "trigger" for initiating crazes, and utilizing the rigidity of the polysulfone itself to terminate crazes, support deformation, and absorb a large amount of energy, synergistic toughening is achieved. The soft segments improve the compatibility of inorganic materials by bonding with inorganic nanoparticles. The organic and inorganic phases effectively transfer stress, forming an interconnected network structure to achieve the toughening effect.
[0016] (3) The diaphragm prepared by grafting soft segments is less prone to breakage under certain mechanical forces, and its toughness is improved, thus improving the durability and safety of the diaphragm during use. This invention constructs an interpenetrating network structure by grafting soft segments within the system, thereby significantly improving the toughness of the diaphragm and enabling it to maintain its anti-brittle fracture performance even in the extreme low temperature environment of liquid nitrogen, providing a potential solution for the application of diaphragms in cold regions.

[0040] As shown in Table 4, the bending resistance of Examples 1 to 9 is superior to that of Comparative Examples 1 to 4. Comparative analysis shows that the toughness of the membrane is significantly improved after the grafting reaction of the soft-chain monomers. Comparing Examples 1 to 9, it was found that Examples 1, 3, 7, and 9 have better bending resistance. The principle behind this is that, firstly, the inorganic nanoparticles, after modification with a silane coupling agent, have improved compatibility with the organic system and better dispersibility. Zirconia is uniformly dispersed in the membrane, such as... Figure 1 As shown, (a) is a surface scanning electron microscope (SEM) image of the composite membrane prepared in Example 1; (b) is a cross-sectional SEM image of the composite membrane prepared in Example 1. It can be seen that the added soft-chain monomers, after free radical polymerization to form long-chain polymers, form an interpenetrating network structure. The soft material itself can bridge the craters, and its own deformation can passivate the tips of the craters, preventing further expansion. The high-modulus polysulfone matrix can effectively constrain the size of the craters, preventing them from expanding indefinitely. The craters can only be confined to the area between particles. Ultimately, through the synergistic mechanism of "soft-chain polymer initiating multiple craters" and "polysulfone matrix supporting and terminating craters," the toughness of the material is significantly improved.
