Description
Technical Field
The present invention relates to a method for preparing a multi-step electrode slurry for improving the dispersibility of additives and ionomers in an electrode, and an electrode for a polymer electrolyte fuel cell. More particularly, it relates to a method of preparing an electrode, in which a pretreatment step of an antioxidant and an ionomer is added to increase the dispersibility of the antioxidant in the electrode and exist adjacent to the ionomer in order to increase the anti-deterioration effect of the nanoparticle antioxidant in the electrode.
Background
In general, a Fuel Cell (Fuel Cell) is a power generation technology that generates electric energy by an electrochemical reaction between hydrogen and oxygen, and continuously generates electricity by supplying hydrogen and oxygen to a positive electrode (anode) and a negative electrode (cathode), respectively.
A fuel cell includes a Membrane Electrode Assembly (MEA) having a positive electrode catalyst layer and a negative electrode catalyst layer on both sides of an electrolyte membrane.
Such a catalyst layer may be formed by, after a process of mixing and dispersing a catalyst slurry containing a catalyst and conductive adhesive particles, coating the catalyst slurry on a substrate and transferring to an electrolyte membrane in a dried state.
In order to achieve excellent performance of the membrane electrode assembly, it is important that the catalyst slurry is mixed and dispersed. When the coating step is performed after the dispersion process, the distribution of the catalyst and the pore structure are determined by acting together with the step of transferring the catalyst layer to the electrolyte membrane after that, and thus the path of water generated from the hydrogen ions, electrons, and the anode layer is determined.
Such a path affects the performance of the fuel cell.
In contrast, in the case where the mixing and dispersion state of the catalyst slurry is uneven and the catalyst and the conductive adhesive particles are agglomerated, it is difficult to improve the performance of the fuel cell, and therefore, it is important to solve such a problem in the production process of the membrane electrode assembly and to produce the catalyst slurry maintaining an appropriate mixing and dispersion state.
In order for each additive to function properly in the electrode for a fuel cell, the additive must be present at a target location in the electrode.
In the case where an antioxidant, a reverse voltage inhibitor, and an additive for electrode pore formation and quality improvement are mixed with a structural substance of an electrode at the same time, since each component is not at a desired optimum position but is present at random positions, or each component is not uniformly dispersed, it becomes a resistance factor for degrading performance in a membrane electrode assembly.
Therefore, there is an increasing need for a method of preparing an electrode paste that can solve such a problem.

Disclosure of Invention
Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-mentioned problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a multi-step electrode slurry preparation method and an electrode for a polymer electrolyte fuel cell, which improve dispersibility of additives and ionomers in the electrode.
Specifically, the present invention proposes a method for preparing an electrode, which improves the dispersibility of an antioxidant in an electrode and enables the antioxidant to exist at a position adjacent to an ionomer by adding a pretreatment step of the antioxidant and the ionomer, so as to improve the anti-degradation effect of a nanoparticle antioxidant in the electrode, thereby solving the existing problems.
The electrode for a fuel cell prepared by the method of the present invention can improve the anti-degradation effect while minimizing the content of the antioxidant, and can improve the high current performance of the membrane electrode assembly.
Also, when the process is applied by applying the nano-scale oxide and the metal material other than the nano-particle antioxidant according to the present invention, water generated in the high current region can be easily discharged by securing the air holes in the electrode.
According to the present invention, the antioxidant in the electrode is added for the purpose of preventing the deterioration of the ionomer caused by the radical, and therefore, it is intended to dispose the antioxidant in the vicinity of the ionomer.
And, even though the nanoparticle antioxidant is a nanoscale particle, due to the characteristics of the nanomaterial, it exists in the form of agglomerations of several micrometers or more, and thus it is intended to break up the agglomerated particles into small particles and increase the active area of the antioxidant by applying a strong physical force through a pre-dispersion process.
And, -SO intended to mix the antioxidant first with the ionomer and with the Side chain (Side chain) of the PFSA fluorine-based ionomer 3 The functional groups combine to inhibit reagglomeration of the antioxidant in the slurry.
Further, when weak physical dispersion is performed after mixing of the ionomer, the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer increases, and electrostatic repulsive force due to charges of functional groups of side chains increases, so that it is intended to improve the performance of the membrane electrode assembly by improving the dispersibility of the catalyst and the ionomer in the slurry.
However, the technical problems to be solved by the present invention are not limited to the above technical problems, and other technical problems not mentioned can be clearly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains from the following description.
In order to solve the above problems, a multi-step electrode paste preparation method for improving dispersibility of an additive and an ionomer in an electrode according to an example of the present invention includes: a first step of mixing an antioxidant and a dispersion solvent; a second step of performing a first dispersion for finely dividing and uniformly dispersing the nano-sized antioxidant particles on the above mixture; a third step of mixing the first-dispersed mixture with a fluorine-based ionomer solution; a fourth step of performing a second dispersion so that the antioxidant is present in the vicinity of the ionomer by interaction of the antioxidant particles with the ionomer; a fifth step of preparing a slurry by mixing the catalyst mixed with water and the above-mentioned second-dispersed mixture; a sixth step of coating the slurry; and a seventh step of preparing an electrode by heating the coated slurry and drying, wherein the second step may be performed to improve the deterioration resistance efficiency, and the fourth step may be performed to improve the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer on the mixture by increasing the active area of the antioxidant by the physical force through the first dispersion step.
In the second step, the first dispersion may be performed by at least one of an ultrasonic generator, the ultrasonic probe, a homogenizer (homogenizer), an agitator (Stirrer), and a Magnetic Stirrer (Magnetic Stirrer).

Further, after mixing the ionomer, the second dispersion may be performed to a degree lower than that of the first dispersion, thereby improving the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer, increasing electrostatic repulsive force due to charges of functional groups of side chains, improving dispersibility of the catalyst and the ionomer in the slurry, and improving performance of the electrode-based membrane electrode assembly.
And, in the first step, the antioxidant may include cerium oxide (CeO) 2 ) Cerium zirconium oxide (CeZrO) 4 ) Tin dioxide (SnO) 2 ) Titanium dioxide (TiO) 2 ) Manganese dioxide (MnO) 2 ) Manganese carbonate (MnCO) 3 ) The dispersion solvent may include at least one of water, methanol (Ethanol), ethanol (Ethanol), n-propanol (n-propanol), isopropanol (i-propanol), butanol (Butanol), and Ethylene glycol (Ethylene glycol).
In the first step, at least one of a reverse voltage inhibitor and an additive for electrode pore formation and quality improvement may be mixed in addition to the antioxidant.
In order to improve the dispersion of the antioxidant, the particles of the dried antioxidant powder having a predetermined size or larger may be crushed by a mortar and pestle and/or a grinder before the first step, and the particles having a predetermined size or larger may be filtered by a screen (Sieve) to homogenize the size of the antioxidant powder.
In the fifth step, the catalyst mixed with water may be used in order to prevent the catalyst from being ignited when the catalyst contacts the dispersion solvent.

In order for each additive to function normally in an electrode for a fuel cell, the additive must be present at a target position in the electrode, but conventionally, when an antioxidant, a reverse voltage inhibitor, and an additive for electrode pore formation and quality improvement are mixed with a structural substance of the electrode at the same time, each component is not present at a desired optimum position but at a random position, or each component is not uniformly dispersed, and therefore, there is a problem that the additive becomes a resistance factor that reduces performance in a membrane electrode assembly.
Accordingly, the present invention can solve the above-mentioned problems by providing a human user with an electrode for a polymer electrolyte fuel cell and a method for producing the electrode.
That is, the present invention can provide a method for preparing an electrode to a user by increasing the dispersibility of an antioxidant in an electrode and allowing the antioxidant to exist at a position adjacent to an ionomer through a pretreatment step of the antioxidant and the ionomer, so as to improve the anti-deterioration effect of a nanoparticle antioxidant in the electrode, thereby solving the existing problems.
The electrode for a fuel cell prepared in this way can improve the anti-deterioration effect while minimizing the content of the antioxidant, and has the effect of improving the high-current performance of the membrane electrode assembly.
Further, when this step is applied by applying a nano-scale oxide and a metal material other than the nano-particle antioxidant, there is an effect that water generated in the high-current region is easily discharged by securing pores in the electrode.
And, even though the nano-particle antioxidant is nano-sized particles, due to the characteristics of nano-materials, it exists in the form of agglomerations of several micrometers or more, and when strong physical force is applied through a pre-dispersion process, the agglomerated particles may be broken into small particles and increase the active area of the antioxidant.
And, when the antioxidant is first mixed with the ionomer, -SO, which may be pendant from the PFSA fluorine-based ionomer 3 The functional groups combine while inhibiting reagglomeration of the antioxidant in the slurry.
In addition, when the weak ultrasonic dispersion is performed after the mixing of the ionomer, the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer increases, and electrostatic repulsive force due to the charge of the functional group of the side chain increases, so that the performance of the membrane electrode assembly can be improved by improving the dispersibility of the catalyst and the ionomer in the slurry.
On the other hand, the effects that can be obtained from the present invention are not limited to the above-described effects, and other effects not mentioned can be clearly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains from the following description.

Multi-step electrode slurry preparation method for improving dispersibility of additives and ionomers in electrodes
Fig. 1 is a flow chart illustrating a multi-step electrode slurry preparation method of the present invention for improving the dispersibility of additives and ionomers in an electrode.
Referring to fig. 1, first, step S10 is performed to mix an antioxidant and a dispersion solvent.
In step S10, the dispersion solvent may include at least one of cerium oxide, cerium zirconium oxide, tin dioxide, titanium dioxide, manganese carbonate, and manganese dioxide.
In step S10, the dispersion solvent may include at least one of water, methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, butanol, and ethylene glycol.
In step S10, at least one of a reverse voltage inhibitor and an additive for electrode pore formation and quality improvement may be mixed in addition to the antioxidant.
After that, step S20 is performed to perform a first dispersion for finely dividing and uniformly dispersing the nano-sized antioxidant particles on the mixture.
Step S20 is performed to increase the deterioration resistance efficiency and increase the active area of the antioxidant by the physical force through the first dispersion step.
In step S20, the first dispersion may be performed by at least one of an ultrasonic generator, an ultrasonic probe, a homogenizer, a stirrer, and a magnetic stirrer.
Then, step S30 is performed to mix the first-dispersed mixture with the fluorine-based ionomer solution.
And, step S4 is performed to perform a second dispersion such that the antioxidant is present in a location adjacent to the ionomer through interaction of the antioxidant particles with the ionomer.
Step S40 is performed to increase the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer on the mixture.
In step S40, the second dispersion may be performed by at least one of an ultrasonic generator, the ultrasonic probe, the homogenizer, the stirrer, a planetary stirrer, and a magnetic stirrer.
The stirring speed and the ultrasonic intensity associated with the second dispersion may be lower than those associated with the first dispersion, and the dispersion time associated with the second dispersion may be shorter than those associated with the first dispersion.
As described above, after mixing the ionomer, the second dispersion may be performed to a degree lower than that of the first dispersion, thereby improving the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer, increasing electrostatic repulsive force due to charges of the functional groups of the side chains, improving the dispersibility of the catalyst and the ionomer in the slurry, and thus improving the performance of the electrode-based membrane electrode assembly.
And, step S50 is performed to prepare a slurry by mixing the catalyst mixed with water and the above-described second-dispersed mixture.
First, the antioxidant particles and the ionomer are mixed through step S40, and then a slurry is prepared in step S50, SO that-SO at the side chain with PFSA fluorine-based ionomer can be obtained 3 The functional groups combine while inhibiting reagglomeration of the antioxidant in the slurry.
In step S50, the preparation of the slurry may be performed by at least one of an ultrasonic generator, the ultrasonic probe, a homogenizer, a stirrer, and a magnetic stirrer.
Then, step S60 and step S70 are performed, and in step S60, the slurry is applied, and in step S70, the applied slurry is heated and dried, thereby preparing an electrode.
In step S60, the coating of the slurry may be performed by at least one of a spray coater, a bar coater, and a slot die coater.
On the other hand, fig. 2 and 3 are diagrams for explaining steps further performed on the basis of the method of fig. 1.
Referring to fig. 2, in order to improve the dispersion of the antioxidant, a step S5 of pulverizing the dried antioxidant powder to a predetermined size or more by a mortar and pestle and/or a grinder, and filtering the particles of the predetermined size or more by a mesh screen to homogenize the size of the antioxidant powder may be added before the step S10.
Also, referring to fig. 3, before step S50, step S100 may be additionally performed to mix water and the catalyst in order to prevent the catalyst from being ignited when it comes into contact with the dispersion solvent.
Step S100 is performed independently of each of steps S10 to S40.
The method comprises the following steps:
step S10: mixing antioxidant with dispersing solvent
-an antioxidant: ceria, zirconia cerium, tin dioxide, titania, manganese carbonate, manganese dioxide and the like
Additives which can be used in addition to antioxidants as reverse voltage inhibitors (reverse voltage inhibitors, electrode quality improvers, performance improvers, etc.)
To enhance the dispersion of the antioxidant, the dried powder may be crushed into large particles by a pestle/mortar, mill or the like, and filtered through a screen to homogenize the powder size prior to mixing with the solvent
-dispersing solvent: using water, alcohols (methanol, ethanol, n-propanol, isopropanol, butanol, ethylene glycol, etc.) as single solvent or mixed solvent
Step S20: first dispersion
-the purpose is: improving anti-degradation efficiency by finely dividing and uniformly dispersing nanoscale antioxidant particles
-a dispersing device: ultrasonic generator, ultrasonic probe, homogenizer, high-pressure homogenizer, high-speed stirrer, and magnetic stirrer
Step S30: mixed fluorine-based ionomer solution
Step S40: second dispersion
-the purpose is: increasing the degree of freedom of the ionomer polymer such that the antioxidant is present adjacent to the ionomer by the interaction of the antioxidant particles with the ionomer
-a dispersing device: ultrasonic generator, ultrasonic probe, homogenizer, high-pressure homogenizer, high-speed stirrer, planetary stirrer, and magnetic stirrer
The dispersion intensity of the second dispersion is lower than that of the first dispersion (stirring speed or ultrasonic intensity or dispersion time)
Additional independent step S100: mixed catalyst+Water
Because the catalyst is ignited when contacted with an alcoholic solvent, the catalyst is wetted with water to prevent this
Step S50: preparation of slurry by mixing the solution of the second dispersion into the catalyst in step S100
-slurry mixing method: ultrasonic generator, ultrasonic probe, homogenizer, high-pressure homogenizer, and high-speed stirrer
Step S60: slurry coating method for preparing electrode
-spray coater, bar coater, slot die coater
Step S70: preparation of electrodes
-preparing an electrode by drying by heating the coated slurry

Effects of the invention
In order for each additive to function normally in an electrode for a fuel cell, the additive must be present at a target position in the electrode, but conventionally, when an antioxidant, a reverse voltage inhibitor, and an additive for electrode pore formation and quality improvement are mixed with a structural substance of the electrode at the same time, since each component is not present at a desired optimum position but at a random position, or each component is not uniformly dispersed, there is a problem that the additive becomes a resistance factor that adversely reduces performance in a membrane electrode assembly.
