Problems solved by technology

[0008] Purpose of the invention: The present invention provides a method for preparing a membrane electrode of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell to solve the problems in the prior art that it is difficult to satisfy the entry of reactants and the elimination of products in the membrane electrode of a fuel cell by using a single membrane electrode preparation process. Problem: Since the performance of the membrane electrode prepared by the screen printing process is not high, the performance of the membrane electrode prepared by the ultrasonic spraying process decays quickly, the utilization rate of the catalyst is low, and the energy consumption of the preparation process is large, so the present invention combines the two processes to overcome Problems arising from the separate preparation of membrane electrodes for each process

Abstract

The invention discloses a production method of a proton exchange membrane fuel cell membrane electrode. A screen printing technology and an ultrasonic spraying technology which are two production technologies of membrane electrodes are adopted, an electrocatalyst slurry I undergoes the screen printing technology, an electrocatalyst slurry II undergoes the ultrasonic spraying technology and then is directly or indirectly supported on a proton exchange membrane, and the produced membrane electrode has a catalyst layer with a gradient network structure. The membrane electrode with high performance, long life, multiple layers and gradient network structure is produced by using different contents of an adhesive in different electrocatalyst slurries; and the compact structure of the catalyst layer in a thin layer electrode and an ultrasonic sprayed loose three-dimensional network structure make the interface resistivity of the catalyst layer lower than the that of the three-dimensional network structure, and the area of the introduced thin layer electrode is greater than the spray area when the effective area of the catalyst layer is ensured, so the contact part of a bipolar plate and the thin layer electrode can well facilitate electron conduction in the cell assembling process.
