Embodiment 1

[0033] Example 1: Cut a piece of 10×11cm 2 Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) porous membrane with a thickness of 30 μm (SEM scanning electron micrographs are shown in the attached figure 1 ), soak in ethanol solution to remove organic matter on the surface. Then spread the PTFE porous membrane on a flat glass, Nafion (R) The solution was mixed with DMSO at a ratio of 1:8 (volume), and 17.6 g of the solution was dropped onto the surface of the porous membrane. Put it on a 50°C hot stage, and after 1 hour, the temperature is raised to 75°C, and after 1 hour, the temperature is raised to 120°C. Take it off the hot table, put it in a vacuum oven at 100°C for 12 hours, cool it down to room temperature and take it out to get Nafion (R) / PTFE composite membrane (film thickness 45μm). Put it into double distilled water, take out the membrane, and save it in deionized water for later use.

Abstract

The method includes following steps. The porous membrane of high polymer is dipped in ethanol solution in order to remove the organic matter on the surface. The organic solvent with high boiling point is added to the porous membrane, which is then put to the vacuum oven heating to obtain the composite proton exchange membrane of perfluorosulfuric acid. The thickness of the membrane is 10-100 micron m. The invention possessesthe advantages of easy to control the thickness of the composite membrane and the immersion quantity of the perfluoro resin, providing the membrane with the proporties of airtight and good intensity. It is safe to be used in the fuel cell.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a proton exchange membrane composite membrane for a fuel cell, in particular to a method using perfluorosulfonic acid resin and high temperature. Background technique [0002] Proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC) has the advantages of high power density, high energy conversion efficiency, low temperature start-up, and environmental friendliness. It will be widely used in aerospace, military, energy and transportation and other fields. The electrode of PEMFC is a porous gas diffusion electrode, and pure Pt, Pt / C or Pt-Ru / C are used as electrocatalysts, and the electrolyte is a solid polymer proton exchange membrane. Proton exchange membrane (PEM) is one of the core components of PEMFC. It is very different from the diaphragm used in general chemical power sources. First of all, it is not only a diaphragm material, but also an electrolyte (proton transfer) and electrode active material ( Electrocatal...
