The application discloses a preparation method of a novel catalyst
coated membrane (CCM) functional layer, and belongs to the technical field of membrane
electrode assemblies (MEA) of
proton exchange membrane
fuel cells (PEMFC). 2 The SiO2 with a nominal BET of 150 m 2 / g and a 20 wt%
Nafion solution are configured into a solution, and the
solvent for the solution is a mixture of
isopropyl alcohol and water, wherein the
mass ratio of
Nafion to
oxide is 1; S2, the
slurry is subjected to 14 h ball milling and 30 min ultrasonic removal of agglomeration; S3, the SiO2 /
Nafion slurry is sprayed onto the PEM
cathode /
anode surface by using an ultrasonic spraying instrument; S4, the catalyst
slurry with an I / C ratio of 0.6 is sprayed onto the PEM
cathode /
anode surface to which the reinforced functional layer has been added by using the ultrasonic spraying instrument; and S5, the conventional MPL, GDL, sealing ring, flow channel, bipolar plate, insulating plate and clamp are pressed and assembled, and no additional sealing is required. By adding the functional layer, the
water retention capacity of the membrane
electrode is significantly improved, so that the membrane
electrode can still maintain excellent
proton conduction and output high power under low-
humidity working conditions.
