Microstructure formation mechanism of catalyst layer and its effect on fuel cell performance: Effect of dispersion medium composition

Hong Ren et al.

Summary: The solvent evaporation process during ink drying in the catalyst layer significantly impacts the microstructure and performance of proton exchange membrane fuel cells. Increasing the alcohol content in the catalyst ink improves the ionomer network and pore structure, enhancing proton conduction capability. For complex fuel cell operating conditions, a catalyst ink formulation with 50 wt% alcohol content provides satisfactory performance.

Summary: This study investigates the effects of ink formulation on the performance of PtCo/HSC cathode electrocatalysts, finding that water content in the ink has little impact on ionomer coverage, and water-rich inks lead to smaller aggregates that improve oxygen transport. State-of-the-art membrane electrode assemblies with Pt loadings of 0.03/0.08 mgPt/cm(2) were produced, demonstrating excellent performance under various conditions.

Coarse-Grained Molecular Dynamics Simulation of Perfluorosulfonic Acid Polymer in Water-Ethanol Mixtures

An-Tsung Kuo et al.

Summary: The study found that PFSA ionomers in water-ethanol mixtures form cylindrical-like particles or random coil conformations, depending on the ethanol concentration. The formation of cylindrical structures at low ethanol concentrations is attributed to strong electrostatic interactions among charged groups, while higher ethanol concentrations result in greater polymer/solvent interfacial attraction and conformational entropy.

Ionomer network of catalyst layers for proton exchange membrane fuel cell

Hong Ren et al.

Summary: This study investigates the performance and internal mechanism of SSC PFSA ionomers in proton exchange membrane fuel cells, revealing the correlation between the distribution of different EW ionomers in CL and their performance. By increasing IEC and reducing ionomer adsorption on Pt/C, the formation of Pt/C-ionomer connection network is facilitated, leading to a more uniform ionomer proton conduction network in the CL.

Development of high-performance roll-to-roll-coated gas-diffusion-electrode-based fuel cells

Scott A. Mauger et al.

Summary: This study focuses on determining fabrication conditions to create high-performance roll-to-roll-coated gas-diffusion electrodes for proton-exchange-membrane fuel cells. It was found that using a higher drying rate can promote the formation of an ionomer-rich surface in the electrode. The R2R-coated GDEs have a higher surface ionomer concentration than spray-coated GDEs, eliminating the need for an additional ionomer overlayer and reducing processing steps and manufacturing costs.

Probing Ionomer Interactions with Electrocatalyst Particles in Solution

Sarah A. Berlinger et al.

Summary: The interaction between ionomer and catalyst particles in porous electrodes of electrochemical-energy-conversion devices is crucial for performance, with ionomer adsorption being influenced mainly by entropic interactions with the carbon surface. Solvents with higher water content promote ionomer adsorption, and ionomer dispersions change with time, leading to dynamic binding interactions.
