Embodiment 1

[0061] Ethylcellulose powder (Dow Inc., ETHOCELTM, substituted with 48-49.5% ethyl) was dispersed in DMSO, and the cellulose was dissociated (decompose) by processing several times in solution using a microfluidizer. ) to form nanofibers. The thus prepared ethylcellulose nanofibers have a diameter of 10-100 nm and a length of 1-10 μm.

[0062] 0.2 parts by weight of the cellulose nanofiber and 99.8 parts by weight of sulfonated polyetheretherketone were added to 2,000 parts by weight of DMSO as a solvent, followed by uniform dissolution. The above solution was coated on a substrate by solution casting using a film applicator to form a film with a thickness of 20 μm, the temperature was slowly raised to 80° C., the film was dried for about 24 hours, and then dried at 120° C. for 24 hours, Proton exchange was performed using sulfonic acid treatment to produce the final polymer electrolyte membrane.

[0063] Dissolve the carbon-supported platinum catalyst (platinum-supported ca...

Abstract

The present invention relates to a macromolecular electrolyte membrane for a fuel cell, and to a membrane electrode binder material and a fuel cell comprising the same, and provides a macromolecular electrolyte membrane for a fuel cell comprising a cation exchange resin based on a hydrogen-ion-conducting hydrocarbon and comprising fibrous nanoparticles having a hydrophilic group. By using fibrous nanoparticles having a hydrophilic group in a mixture with a cation exchange resin based on a hydrogen-ion-conducting hydrocarbon, the present invention can provide a macromolecular electrolyte membrane having improved gas-screening properties and long-term durability without reducing the performance of the fuel cell, and can provide a fuel cell which comprises the macromolecular electrolyte membrane.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a polymer electrolyte membrane used for fuel cells to improve the mechanical properties of the electrolyte membrane. More specifically, the present invention relates to a polymer electrolyte membrane for a fuel cell comprising fibrous nanoparticles having at least one hydrophilic group, thereby improving its mechanical properties, and to a polymer electrolyte membrane comprising the polymer Electrolyte membranes for membrane electrode assemblies and fuel cells. Background technique [0002] Recently, the projected depletion of conventional energy sources such as petroleum and coal has drawn increasing attention to alternative energy sources. In particular, fuel cells are attracting a lot of attention as an energy storage system because they are highly efficient, do not emit pollutants such as NOx and SOx, and use abundant fuel. [0003] A fuel cell is a power generation system that converts energy from a chemical reaction of ...
