Electrode is where electricity is generated. Its quality is important to the entire battery performance. In this study, we are going to establish a stable and automatic process for making electrodes as well as required equipment. By this way, the instability in the electrode process can be improved.
Electrospray technology is developed to spray the catalyst and reduce the agglomeration. It is shown that the electrode performance is 37% better than before after electrospray is adopted for producing catalyst layer. If we check the catalyst grains by AFM and TEM, we can find that the electrospray does scatter the polymers containing Nafion effectively. Under SEM, the catalyst grains are small and well proportioned on the carbon cloth. Obviously, catalysts are better utilized. All of the above can be used to explain the performance boost.
