The core component of the fuel cell is a membrane electrode, and currently, the preparation of the membrane electrode can be divided into three methods: transfer method (decal transfer method), CCM (catalyst-coated membrane) method, and GDL method. The transfer printing method generally comprises the steps of coating catalyst slurry on a transfer printing substrate, drying to form a catalytic layer, combining the catalytic layer with a proton exchange membrane through hot pressing, and removing the transfer printing substrate to transfer the catalytic layer from the transfer printing substrate to the proton exchange membrane. The transfer printing method generally comprises two processes of plate transfer printing and roll transfer printing, the thickness of the CCM of the hydrogen fuel cell is generally only tens of micrometers, and the thickness is too thin, and when the CCM is prepared by using the plate transfer printing method, the pressure uniformity of the CCM is generally ensured by adopting an air pressure mode on an upper pressing plate. But is limited by the reasons such as gasbag material, the pressure is lower in the transfer printing process, can only guarantee the transfer printing effect through extension heating time, and the dull and stereotyped transfer printing method is only applicable to the sheet material transfer printing simultaneously, therefore whole process inefficiency is not applicable to batch production operation. The pressure is generally controlled through an oil cylinder or an electric cylinder in the rolling transfer printing process, the higher pressure can be realized in the transfer printing process, and the transfer printing effect can be ensured by short-time hot pressing. Meanwhile, the roll transfer printing is not only suitable for sheet materials, but also suitable for coil materials, and continuous production can be realized when the coil materials are used for transfer printing, so that the requirement of batch production is met. But roll transfer gives poor consistency in the product when transferring non-rectangular coatings.
The inventors found that: when the non-rectangular coating 7 is subjected to roll transfer, as shown in fig. 1, the contact areas of the press roller 411 and the non-rectangular coating 7 are continuously changed, and as analysis shows that three areas of the non-rectangular coating 7, which are in contact with the press roller 411 during the roll transfer, are respectively a first contact area E1, a second contact area E2 and a third contact area E3, the areas s1+.s2+.s3 of the first contact area E1, the second contact area E2 and the third contact area E3, the pressure exerted by the press roller 411 on the non-rectangular coating 7 is the same, and the pressures of the first contact area E1, the second contact area E2 and the third contact area E3 are respectively the pressures F of p1=411/the first contact area E1, the pressure F2 area S2 of the second contact area E2 and the pressure F3 area S3 of p3=411, so that the pressure changes at the moment on the non-rectangular coating 7 during the roll transfer, the pressure changes at the moment on the non-rectangular coating 7, and the non-rectangular coating 7 are different in thickness, and thus the non-rectangular coating 7 are different in thickness, and the non-rectangular coating is caused.
To solve the problem of poor product uniformity when transferring non-rectangular coating 7 by roll transfer, the inventors have intended to reduce the magnitude of pressure variation on non-rectangular coating 7 during roll transfer by providing shims 8 around non-rectangular coating 7 to receive the pressure of press roll 411 in conjunction with non-rectangular coating 7.
As shown in fig. 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a transfer printing method of a non-rectangular coating 7, the method including:
s1, obtaining a non-rectangular coating 7, wherein the non-rectangular coating 7 comprises a transfer printing substrate 71 and a coating body 72 attached to the transfer printing substrate 71, and the contact area between the coating body 72 and a press roller 411 is different when passing through the press roller 411 of the roll transfer printing along the roll transfer printing direction;
the non-rectangular coating 7 refers to a coating having a non-uniform coating length in the extending direction of the pressing roller 411. Since the contact width of the pressing roller 411 and the coating layer is the same, the contact area of the pressing roller 411 and the coating layer is different due to the non-uniform length thereof, and thus the pressure variation is caused.
S2, arranging a gasket 8 on a substrate layer 9, and placing the non-rectangular coating 7 on the substrate layer 9, so that the gasket 8 and the non-rectangular coating 7 are combined to obtain a to-be-pressed assembly to reduce pressure difference born by the coating body 72 when passing through the pressing roller 411; in some embodiments, the substrate layer 9 may be a proton membrane.
As shown in fig. 4 to 7, the combination of the gasket 8 and the non-rectangular coating 7 to obtain the assembly to be pressed to bear pressure together can be realized by adopting a single gasket 8 or can be realized by adopting a gasket 8 group formed by a plurality of gaskets 8.
In some embodiments, the maximum contact area S of the coating body 72 with the press roller 411 is the same as the press roller 411 Maximum 1 Minimum contact area S of the coating body 72 with the press roller 411 Very small 1 Maximum contact area S of the component to be pressed with the pressing roller 411 Maximum 2 And the minimum contact area S of the component to be pressed and the pressing roller 411 Very small 2 The following relationship is satisfied: s is S Maximum 2 -S Very small 2 <S Maximum 1 -S Very small 1
The maximum contact area of the coating body 72 with the pressing roller 411 means an area where the pressing roller 411 contacts with the maximum length area of the coating body 72 in the extending direction of the pressing roller 411. The minimum contact area of the coating body 72 with the pressing roller 411 means an area where the pressing roller 411 contacts with a minimum length region of the coating body 72 in the extending direction of the pressing roller 411. The maximum contact area of the component to be pressed with the pressing roller 411 means the contact area of the pressing roller 411 and the maximum length area of the component to be pressed along the extending direction of the pressing roller 411. The minimum contact area of the component to be pressed with the pressing roller 411 means an area where the pressing roller 411 contacts with a minimum length region of the component to be pressed along the extending direction of the pressing roller 411. Wherein the length of the component to be pressed refers to the sum of the length of the coating body 72 and the length of the gasket 8.
By making the maximum difference between the contact area of the pad 8 and the non-rectangular coating 7 and the contact area of the pressing roller 411 when passing through the pressing roller 411 smaller than the maximum difference between the contact area of the coating body 72 and the contact area of the pressing roller 411 when passing through the pressing roller 411, the reduction of the pressure difference born by the coating body 72 when passing through the pressing roller 411 is realized, and the problem of poor product consistency when transferring the non-rectangular coating 7 by adopting rolling transfer is further improved.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 8 and 9, the thickness H1 of the spacer 8 is not less than the thickness H2 of the non-rectangular coating 7. The thickness of the non-rectangular coating 7 refers to the sum of the thicknesses of the transfer substrate 71 and the coating body 72. By controlling the thickness of the gasket 8 to be not smaller than the thickness of the non-rectangular coating 7, the press roller 411 can be firstly contacted with the gasket 8 when pressure is applied, and then contacted with the non-rectangular coating 7 after the gasket 8 is pressed down, so that the gasket 8 and the non-rectangular coating 7 are pressed down together, the gasket 8 participates in bearing pressure together in the pressing down process of the non-rectangular coating 7, and the consistency of products when the non-rectangular coating 7 is transferred by adopting the rolling transfer printing is further improved.
Further, the relation between the thickness H1 of the spacer 8 and the thickness H2 of the non-rectangular coating 7 satisfies: h1—h2=2 to 5 μm. The thickness of the gasket 8 is controlled to be 2-5 mu m larger than the thickness of the non-rectangular coating 7, so that the precision requirement of the thickness in the process of preparing the gasket 8 can be reduced to a certain extent, the thickness of the gasket 8 can be easily realized to be larger than the thickness of the non-rectangular coating 7, and the gasket 8 and the non-rectangular coating 7 can bear pressure together in the whole rolling process. And meanwhile, the material consumption of the gasket 8 can be reduced, and the material waste is reduced.
In some embodiments, the relationship of the compression Δh1 of the gasket 8, the compression Δh2 of the non-rectangular coating 7, the thickness H1 of the gasket 8, and the thickness H2 of the non-rectangular coating 7, at the same pressure, satisfies: ΔH2+ (H1-H2) with ΔH2.
The compression amount Δh1 of the gasket 8 refers to the deformation amount of the gasket 8 under a certain pressure. The compression amount Δh2 of the non-rectangular coating 7 refers to the deformation amount of the non-rectangular coating 7 under a certain pressure.
By controlling the relation of the compression amount Δh1 of the spacer 8, the compression amount Δh2 of the non-rectangular coating 7, the thickness H1 of the spacer 8, and the thickness H2 of the non-rectangular coating 7, it is satisfied that: ΔH2+ (H1-H2) such that when the non-rectangular coating 7 is compressed to a target thickness, the gasket 8 still has a compression margin, thereby reducing the compression effect of the gasket 8 on the non-rectangular coating 7.
Further, the relationship of the compression amount Δh1 of the gasket 8, the compression amount Δh2 of the non-rectangular coating 7, the thickness H1 of the gasket 8, and the thickness H2 of the non-rectangular coating 7 satisfies: Δh1=Δh2+ (h1—h2) +2μm.
In some embodiments, the outer contour of the spacer 8 is rectangular, and the spacer 8 is provided with a receiving cavity 81 for receiving the non-rectangular coating 7. The gasket 8 with the rectangular outer contour can enable the contact area between the gasket 8 and the to-be-pressed component formed by the non-rectangular coating 7 and the pressing roller 411 to be unchanged when the to-be-pressed component passes through the pressing roller 411, and can further improve the consistency of products when the non-rectangular coating 7 is transferred by adopting rolling transfer printing.
In some embodiments, as shown in fig. 4 to 6, the shape of the receiving cavity 81 matches the shape of the non-rectangular coating 7; matching means that the shape of the receiving cavity 81 is the same as the shape of the non-rectangular coating 7, e.g. the shape of the non-rectangular coating 7 is circular, the shape of the receiving cavity 81 is also circular. By matching the shape of the receiving cavity 81 with the shape of the non-rectangular coating 7, it is easier to achieve a substantially constant relative position of the gasket 8 and the non-rectangular coating 7 when they are placed, thereby improving the consistency between the final products. It will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that in other embodiments, as shown in fig. 7, the shape of the receiving cavity 81 may not match the shape of the non-rectangular coating 7.
In some embodiments, the receiving cavity 81 may be through-going.
Further, the cross-sectional area of the receiving cavity 81 is larger than the cross-sectional area of the non-rectangular coating 7 to facilitate placement of the non-rectangular coating 7. The cross-sectional area of the accommodating cavity 81 is larger than that of the non-rectangular coating 7, which means that when the non-rectangular coating 7 is placed in the accommodating cavity 81 and the central axes of the non-rectangular coating 7 and the non-rectangular coating are coincident, a gap exists between the edge of the non-rectangular coating 7 and the edge of the accommodating cavity 81. By making the cross-sectional area of the accommodating chamber 81 larger than that of the non-rectangular coating 7, the convenience of placing the non-rectangular coating 7 in the accommodating chamber 81 is effectively increased.

Example 1
In the embodiment, the gasket with the rectangular outer contour and the matched accommodating cavity and the non-rectangular coating is adopted, the pressure sensitive paper replaces the coating body (the catalytic layer) of the non-rectangular coating, and the pressure sensitive paper and the transfer film are sequentially placed into the accommodating cavity of the gasket and then pass through the roller to see the color developing consistency after being pressed. The relevant parameters are as follows:
transfer film thickness 100 μm, regular triangle with side length 100mm
The thickness of the pressure sensitive paper is 150 mu m, and the side length of the pressure sensitive paper is 100mm in a regular triangle shape
The thickness of the gasket (strip) is 252-255 mu m, the outer contour width is 150mm, and the accommodating cavity is a regular triangle with a side length of 102mm
