Problems solved by technology

However, the addition of a large amount of ion-conducting polymer electrolytes (such as Nafion (Du pont), which is currently widely used in PEMFC and SPE to electrolyze water for hydrogen production) increases the manufacturing cost of membrane electrodes on the one hand, and on the other hand will inevitably affect the catalytic layer. Electron conductivity, and increase the transfer resistance of reactants and products in the catalytic layer, reducing the utilization of the inner electrocatalyst

Abstract

This is a membrance electrode process method for fuel cell or eletrolysis. The membrance electrode includes a structure of three-layer or five-layer. The three-layer structure is composed by cathode catalytic layer-polymer electrolyte membrance-anode catalytic layer. The process method is as: loading cathode and anode catalytic ink to the two sides of the polymer electrolyte membrance and dry in AC field. The five-layer structure is composed by cathode diffusing layer-cathode catalytic layer-polymer electrolyte membrance-anode catalytic layer-anode diffusing layer. The process method is as: loading cathode and anode catalytic ink to cathode and anode diffusing layer separately and dry in AC field; heat compressing the cathode and anode to the polymer electrolyte membrance.
