Background
With the rapid development of social industrialization, the energy crisis problem facing human beings is increasingly prominent. At present, most of energy supply still comes from traditional fossil fuel, and the environmental pollution that comes with itProblems have also become a focus of social attention. In order to solve energy and environmental problems, researchers have looked at emerging clean energy sources, such as solar, wind, tidal and hydrogen. Among them, hydrogen energy (H) 2 ) The fuel has the advantages of high energy density, small molecular mass, only water as a combustion product and the like, and is considered to be an ideal carrier for future energy storage and supply. At present, the technology for preparing the elemental hydrogen mainly comprises hydrogen production by fossil energy reforming, hydrogen production by industrial byproduct gas and hydrogen production by water electrolysis. The hydrogen production by electrolyzing water has the advantages of simple raw materials, no greenhouse gas emission, high hydrogen production efficiency, high product purity and the like, and is considered as the development direction of the future energy industry.
The water electrolysis hydrogen production technology mainly comprises the steps of hydrogen production by using alkaline electrolyte (AWE), water electrolysis by using Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM), water electrolysis by using solid polymer Anion Exchange Membrane (AEM) and water electrolysis by using Solid Oxide (SOE). Among them, AWE is the earliest industrialized water electrolysis technology, has been experienced in several decades of applications and is the most mature; SOE water electrolysis technology is in a preliminary demonstration stage; AEM water electrolysis studies were just started. From the technical point of view, the PEM water electrolysis technology has the advantages of high current density, small volume of an electrolysis bath, flexible operation, contribution to quick load change, good matching with wind power and photovoltaic power (large fluctuation and randomness of power generation), and is considered as a development trend of 5-10 years in the future.
The membrane electrode is the most main reaction site in the PEM water electrolysis hydrogen production device, is the core component of the PEM water electrolysis cell, directly influences the hydrogen production efficiency of the electrolytic cell, and determines the safety and stable performance of the electrolysis reaction. The manufacturing process is classified into a GDE method and a CCM method depending on whether a gas diffusion layer is used. The former uses gas diffusion layer, after the catalyst is dried and formed, the gas diffusion layer electrode is obtained, then the membrane electrode is obtained by hot pressing with two sides of the proton exchange membrane; the latter does not use gas diffusion layer, directly and uniformly plates the prepared catalyst on the surface of proton exchange membrane to form catalyst covering layer, and drying and forming so as to obtain the membrane electrode. The membrane electrode prepared by the CCM method has higher catalyst utilization rate, and can establish a better ionomer/catalyst interface (three-phase interface), so that the CCM method is widely applied at present.
The proton exchange membrane used in the CCM method must have relatively high proton conductivity and low electron conductivity; better swelling resistance; low permeability to gases; has better chemical stability and mechanical stability under the running environment of the PEM water electrolyzer. At this stage, Nafion series proton exchange membranes manufactured by DuPont, USA, are generally used. The catalytic layer formed by the catalyst in the CCM method is the real site for reaction in the membrane electrode of the PEM water electrolyzer, namely electrochemical reaction occurs on the surface of the catalyst, so that the composition of the catalyst slurry influences the hydrogen production efficiency of the electrolyzer. In addition, the coating method of the catalyst slurry and the proton exchange membrane is a competitive development subject for scholars at home and abroad.
