Background
Due to the current increasingly serious problem of energy shortage, many green renewable energy sources, such as wind energy, solar energy, geothermal energy, hydrogen energy and the like, are receiving wide attention, wherein the hydrogen energy is regarded as an important green energy source which can replace the existing fossil energy in the future. The fuel cell is a clean and efficient energy conversion device, can generate water and directly generate electric energy by the electrochemical reaction of hydrogen and air, and has the advantages of high energy conversion rate, environmental friendliness, low noise and the like. The core component of the fuel cell is a membrane electrode material, and is formed by compounding a proton exchange membrane, a catalyst and a gas diffusion layer through a hot pressing process. The proton exchange membrane is one of the core materials in the membrane electrode, the service life of the membrane directly determines the service life of the fuel cell, and in the actual use process, the dry and wet state of the proton exchange membrane directly influences the output performance and the service life of the proton exchange membrane.
Purging is needed after normal fuel cell operation is finished, and meanwhile, the dry and wet state of the proton exchange membrane needs to be controlled through purging in the prediction of the accelerated life of the electric pile, so that the actual operation process of the fuel cell is simulated. The drying/wetting rate of the proton exchange membrane is an important factor influencing the mechanical attenuation of the proton exchange membrane, so that the accurate determination of the drying/wetting rate of different proton exchange membranes is important for adjusting the shutdown and purging protocol of the fuel cell stack and designing the accelerated life test working condition of the proton exchange membrane. At present, methods and procedures for testing the drying/wetting rate of different proton exchange membranes under different purging conditions are lacking.

Wherein the sudden drop of internal resistance refers to the fact that at the initial moment of blowing the dry proton exchange membrane by using humidified gas, the internal resistance of the membrane has a sudden drop process within a short time, usually 1-3s, which is mainly caused by the fact that the membrane is in a very dry state (the water content is 1H)2O/SO3H) In the low water content region of the film (water content is 1H)2O/SO3H is increased to2H2O/SO3H) However, the internal resistances differ greatly, and therefore the influence of this process on the evaluation of the rate of wetting of the proton exchange membrane should be excluded.
Further, the preparation method of the proton exchange membrane in a dry state comprises the following steps: blowing the proton exchange membrane to be tested by dry gas until the internal resistance value is larger than the water content of the membrane and is 1H2O/SO3H corresponding to the internal resistance.
Further, the dry gas comprises inert gas, the purging temperature is 60-90 ℃, and the purging flow is 1-100 nlpm.
