Description

Non-fluorine polymer enhanced membrane electrode and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and particularly relates to a non-fluoropolymer reinforced membrane electrode and a preparation method thereof.
Background
A fuel cell is an electrochemical power generation device that can directly convert chemical energy of a fuel and an oxidant into electrical energy through an electrode reaction. Compared with the traditional power generation mode, the energy conversion of the fuel cell is direct, and the link of heat energy conversion is not needed, so the power generation efficiency is higher. The power generation principle is the same as that of other chemical power sources, the catalytic oxidation reaction of fuel occurs at the anode of the battery, and the catalytic reduction reaction of oxidant occurs at the cathode. The electrolyte separates the anode and the cathode and provides a proton transfer channel, and the electrons drive the load to do work through an external circuit, so that a battery load loop is formed. When the cell is in operation, fuel and oxidant are continuously fed to the cell and the electrochemical reaction is followed by the removal of reaction products and a portion of unreacted fuel and oxidant with the concomitant generation of heat.
The membrane electrode assembly is a core component of electrochemical reaction and consists of a cathode catalyst layer, an anode catalyst layer and a polymer electrolyte membrane. The membrane electrode is the main site for electrochemical reaction between fuel and oxygen, and the performance of the membrane electrode directly determines the function and efficiency of the fuel cell. One of the most directly effective ways to improve the performance of membrane electrodes today is to reduce the membrane thickness. First, a reduction in film thickness directly reduces the ohmic resistance of the fuel cell, thereby reducing ohmic polarization; secondly, the film thickness is reduced, so that the back diffusion of the water generated by the cathode is easy, and the self-humidification requirement of the membrane electrode can be met in a low-humidity environment; third, under high current operating conditions of the fuel cell, back diffusion of cathode-generated water due to reduced membrane thickness also reduces the cathode drainage pressure, thereby reducing voltage loss due to flooding. However, the reduction in film thickness has two major effects on the preparation and use of the film electrode. Firstly, the reduction of the membrane thickness makes the traditional membrane electrode preparation method difficult to implement, for example, GDE method and CCM method, and new process needs to be explored to meet the preparation of ultrathin membrane electrode; secondly, the reduction of the film thickness increases hydrogen permeation current and internal short circuit, which affects the battery life, and the introduction of the enhancement layer is needed to limit membrane swelling and reduce hydrogen permeation.
At present, fluorinated polymers, such as polytetrafluoroethylene, are mostly used as materials of the reinforcing layer of the reinforced polymer electrolyte in the membrane electrode. However, the development of fuel cells is limited by the disadvantages of high cost, low glass transition temperature and difficult processing of fluorinated polymers. Meanwhile, non-fluorine polymers, such as polyetherketone, polyethersulfone, polyimide, etc., are gradually becoming the substitute material for fluorine polymers due to the advantages of easily available raw materials, low cost, high heat-resistant temperature, etc. The main difficulties of using aromatic polymer as the material of the polymer electrolyte reinforced layer at present are: the aromatic polymer and the perfluorinated sulfonic acid resin have incompatibility in structure; due to technical problems, the ultra-thin cellular aromatic polymer reinforced layer is difficult to prepare. Therefore, a membrane electrode in which a non-fluoropolymer is used as a reinforcing layer has not been used.
