Technical Field

Background
In the measurement of the conductivity of the proton exchange membrane of the fuel cell in the thickness direction, a linearly changing direct current voltage is applied to the membrane, the current passing through the proton exchange membrane is measured, and the conductivity of the membrane is calculated by ohm's law. The phenomenon of double layer polarization of the electrode and the film has a large effect on the resistance of the film in a direct current test, and the problem of polarization is complex, not only related to the applied direct current voltage, but also related to the electrode material, shape and flatness. That is, for a solid electrolyte such as a proton exchange membrane, if an electric field voltage is applied, the internal protons H + will move to the cathode to form a current in the proton exchange membrane, but at the same time, the anions in the proton exchange membrane, such as SO32 ", are fixed on the polymer chains of the proton exchange membrane and cannot move, and at the same time, no protons are supplemented, SO that a reverse potential, i.e., a polarization potential, is formed inside the proton exchange membrane, which will cause the ammeter to decay rapidly. Therefore, the measurement of the resistivity of the proton exchange membrane in the membrane thickness direction is difficult, the conductivity of the membrane is difficult to measure under certain precision through the traditional ohm's law, the preparation method of the sample to be measured is complicated, and the batch verification of the conductivity of the proton conduction membrane of the fuel cell in the membrane thickness direction is difficult to realize in the production process.
