Definitions
- the present invention relates to a membrane electrode assembly and a water electrolysis device.
- MEA membrane electrode assembly
- a cell used in a fuel cell or a water electrolyzer generally has a channel-forming member for circulating water or gas.
- the channel-forming member may be a separator having grooves formed therein, or may be a porous member disposed within the electrode.
- a net-like metal member such as a metal mesh or an expanded metal is used in order to provide a channel for circulating water, which is a raw material, and oxygen gas and hydrogen gas generated by electrolysis in the electrode. is known (see Patent Documents 1 and 2, for example).
- a carbon porous layer, a titanium fiber sintered layer, and a titanium powder sintered portion are provided as porous substrates between a mesh-like metal member such as a metal mesh or expanded metal and an electrolyte membrane. It is
- the electrolyte membrane constituting the membrane electrode assembly tends to deteriorate when the flow channel forming member is arranged in the cell.
- an object of the present invention is to provide a membrane electrode assembly in which deterioration of the electrolyte membrane is suppressed and durability is improved.
- the inventors of the present invention have found that the above-described problems in the prior art are caused by the fact that relatively large pressure is locally applied to the electrolyte membrane due to the uneven surface shape of the flow path forming member, and have completed the present invention. reached.
- the present invention provides a membrane electrode assembly comprising an anode electrode on one side of an electrolyte membrane and a cathode electrode on the other side, wherein the anode electrode includes a porous substrate (A), and the cathode electrode contains a porous substrate (B), and the total thickness of the porous substrate (A) and the porous substrate (B) exceeds 1,000 ⁇ m. .
- the present invention is also a water electrolysis device using the membrane electrode assembly of the present invention.
- the present invention since a large pressure is not locally applied to the electrolyte membrane, deterioration of the electrolyte membrane is suppressed, and a membrane electrode assembly with improved durability can be provided.
- BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram in one form of the membrane electrode assembly of this invention.
- BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram in one form of the membrane electrode assembly of this invention.
- BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram in one form of the membrane electrode assembly of this invention.
- BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS It is a cross-sectional schematic diagram in one form of the membrane electrode assembly of this invention.
- FIG. 4 is a schematic plan view for explaining the number of meshes of expanded metal;
- a membrane electrode assembly includes an anode electrode on one surface of an electrolyte membrane and a cathode electrode on the other surface, the anode electrode including a porous substrate (A), and the cathode electrode comprising a porous substrate (A).
- a porous substrate (B) is included, and the total thickness of the porous substrate (A) and the porous substrate (B) exceeds 1,000 ⁇ m.
- a relatively thick porous base material is used, so local application of a large pressure to the electrolyte membrane is suppressed, and as a result, degradation of the electrolyte membrane is prevented. considered to be suppressed.

Description
多孔質基材(A)の厚みは、電解質膜の劣化を抑制するという観点から、400μmを超えることが好ましく、500μmを超えることがより好ましく、600μmを超えることがさらに好ましく、700μmを超えることが特に好ましい。また、上記厚みは、良好な導電性を維持するという観点から、2,000μm以下が好ましく、1,700μm以下がより好ましく、1,300μm以下が特に好ましい。
多孔質基材(B)の厚みは、電解質膜の劣化を抑制するという観点から、500μmを超えることが好ましく、600μmを超えることがより好ましく、750μmを超えることがさらに好ましく、1,000μmを超えることがさらに好ましく、1,100μmを超えることがさらに好ましい。また、上記厚みは、良好な導電性を維持するという観点から、2,500μm以下が好ましく、2,000μm以下がより好ましく、1,700μm以下が特に好ましい。
網状部材は導電性を有することが好ましく、その材質としては金属が好ましい。また、網状部材は、耐久性および水・ガス流路の確保の観点からも、金属で構成されていることが好ましい。すなわち、網状部材としては網状金属部材が好ましい。
メッシュ数=25.4/(目開き+線径)。
非網状多孔質部材の材質は、特に限定されないが、導電性および流路形成の観点から金属が好ましい。すなわち、非網状多孔質部材としては、非網状多孔質金属部材が好ましい。以下、非網状多孔質部材の代表例として非網状多孔質金属部材を例に挙げて説明するが、本発明はこれらに限定されない。
膜電極接合体に用いられる電解質膜としては、特に限定されず、当該技術分野で公知の電解質膜を用いることができる。中でも高分子電解質膜が好ましい。高分子電解質としては、例えば、炭化水素系高分子電解質、フッ素系高分子電解質が挙げられる。水電解装置では、電解質膜の水素バリア性が高いこと、水電解性能が高いこと、が好ましく、その観点から炭化水素系高分子電解質が好ましく用いられる。これらの高分子電解質は、スルホン酸基、スルホンイミド基、硫酸基、ホスホン酸基などのイオン性基を含有する。
本発明の実施の形態に係る膜電極接合体は、アノード電極を構成する多孔質基材(A)と電解質膜との間にアノード触媒層を有していてもよく、また、カソード電極を構成する多孔質基材(B)と電解質膜との間にカソード触媒層を有していてもよい。これらの触媒層は、多孔質基材(A)および多孔質基材(B)にそれぞれ積層されていてもよいし、電解質膜に積層されていてもよい。触媒層が電解質膜に積層されたものは、触媒層付き電解質膜(CCM)と称される。
本発明の膜電極接合体は、例えば、電気化学用途に適用することができる。電気化学用途としては、例えば、燃料電池、レドックスフロー電池、水電解装置、電気化学式水素圧縮装置等が挙げられる。これらの中でも水電解装置に適用されることが好ましく、水電解式水素発生装置に適用されることが最も好ましい。
実施例および比較例で作製した膜電極接合体を下記のセパレータ1または2で挟み込み、JARI標準セル(英和(株)製“Ex-1”、電極面積25cm2)にセットし、CCMにかかる平均圧力が4MPaとなるようセルを締結し、セル温度を80℃とした。カソード電極とアノード電極の双方に電気伝導度1μS/cm以下の脱イオン水を大気圧で0.2L/minの流量にて供給し、2A/cm2の電流を印加して水電解反応により水素ガスと酸素ガスを製造した。このときのセルへの初期印加電圧を水電解性能とした。上記印加電圧が低いほど、水電解性能に優れる。また、2A/cm2の電流を200時間印加し続けたときの、初期からの電圧上昇分を水電解耐久性とした。初期からの電圧上昇分が小さいほど、水電解耐久性に優れる。
