Description

Conducing composite material
Technical field
The invention relates to the preparation of polymer composite, refer in particular to copolymer or the copolymer of styrene-divinylbenzene and the conducing composite material that conductive filler is made of a kind of copolymer that utilizes terminal ethene to modify rubber-styrene-divinylbenzene, terminal ethene modification rubber-styrene, it can be used as the electrode in the electrochemical reaction, be applied to fuel cell, so that the systematic electricity source to be provided more.
Background technology
Please refer to shown in Figure 1, Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells 10 (proton exchange membrane fuelcell is hereinafter to be referred as PEMFC) by a proton exchange membrane 1 be sandwiched in two catalyst layers 2, diffusion layer 3, bipolar plates 4 (bipolar plate), collector plate 5 (current collector), and end plate 6 (endplate) between institute form.The both sides that mea is separated are adhered to anode (hydrogen or reorganization gas) and negative electrode (oxygen or air) separately.Anode carries out oxidation reaction, negative electrode carries out reduction reaction, when the hydrogen of anode touches the catalyst layer 2 (be generally platinum or platinum alloy) adjacent with proton exchange membrane 1, hydrogen molecule can dissociate becomes hydrogen ion and electronics, wherein electronics can be via being connected anode and the electric bridge of negative electrode, the device that is connected in series with electric bridge, from the past negative electrode of anode trip, hydrogen ion then directly passes through mea from anode and arrives negative electrode, ben is that this mea is to contain moist film, only allow that hydrogen ion follows hydrone to pass through, and other gas molecule can't pass through all.Cathode terminal is under the effect of catalyst, and the electronics and the oxygen that arrive via electric bridge are combined into oxonium ion, combines with the hydrogen ion that passes through proton exchange membrane 1 to form hydrone, Here it is electrochemical oxidation and reduction reaction.
Applied Electrochemistry reaction makes the PEMFC electricity generation system have efficient height, pollution-free, characteristic such as reaction is fast, and can improve bridge voltage or increase the electrode reaction area by series connection to improve the magnitude of current, particularly under hydrogen and oxygen (using air usually) are endlessly supplied with, the sustainable demand that power supply device is provided.Under such characteristics, PEMFC also can be designed to large power plant, distributed power and packaged type electric power except can be used as mini-system electric power.
