摘要: 廉价的铁-氮-碳(Fe-N-C)催化剂被视为质子交换膜燃料电池(PEMFCs)中铂族金属(PGM)催化剂的有前景的替代品。尽管在旋转圆盘电极(RDEs)上表现出稳健的活性,但它们在膜电极组件(MEAs)中的性能往往受到限制,如氧气(O2)扩散减少、过氧化氢(H2O2)生成量高、质子传导性低以及电子转移数较低。本研究通过调整阴极催化剂层(CCL)的组成,对包括质子传输、电子传导和空气呼吸式PEMFCs中的气体扩散在内的关键因素进行了研究。实验结果表明,当CCL中Fe-N-C催化剂的负载量为1 mg∙cm−2且Nafion含量为0.15 mg∙cm−2时,可获得峰值功率密度。研究发现,为增强疏水性而添加聚四氟乙烯(PTFE)对PEMFC性能有负面影响。此外,将不同种类的碳纳米管(CNTs)掺入CCL中,可使峰值功率密度显著提高30%以上,这归因于气体扩散和质子传导性的增强。本研究突出显示了气体传输和质子传导性在基于Fe-N-C的CCL中的关键作用。这些发现有助于推进经济型PEMFCs的合理设计原则,为推动高效且经济的技术发展提供了宝贵见解。
