Abstract

The invention discloses a membrane electrode with an efficient proton transport network. The membrane electrode comprises an anode catalyst layer, a proton exchange membrane and a cathode catalyst layer; sulfonated carbon nanofibers are arranged in the cathode catalyst layer, the mass ratio of the sulfonated carbon nanofibers to a platinum-carbon catalyst is (0.1-0.4): 1, and protons are transmitted in the sulfonated carbon nanofibers. The carbon nanofibers are subjected to sulfonyl modification, so that the carbon nanofibers have a proton conduction function; and the modified nanofibers have hydrophilicity and are easy to adsorb ion resin, so that the ion resin is distributed along the fibers, the orderliness of the ion resin is enhanced, and the proton mass transfer efficiency is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of fuel cells, and in particular relates to a membrane electrode with a high-efficiency proton transport network and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Membrane electrode composed of cathode, anode and proton exchange membrane is an important part of proton exchange membrane fuel cell. The cathode catalytic layer is composed of ion resin and catalyst. Hydrogen forms protons at the anode, transports to the cathode through the proton membrane, and transports to the platinum surface in the ion resin of the cathode for reaction. Therefore, improving the transport efficiency of protons in the cathode catalytic layer can reduce the amount of ion resin used, improve battery performance, and reduce production costs. At present, the preparation of the catalytic layer of the proton exchange membrane fuel cell usually uses the method of mechanically mixing the ion resin and the catalyst, and t...
