Catalyst Ink Preparation for Fuel Cell MEAs

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
Catalyst ink was prepared by mixing water, 5 wt.% Nafion solution (DuPont) and isopropyl alcohol (IPA) (Aldrich) with the catalyst. 40 wt.% Pt/C (Johnson Matthey) was used for the cathode catalyst inks. The prepared catalyst ink was blended by ultrasonic treatment and sprayed onto the cathode side of bare Nafion 212 membrane to fabricate MEAs. The catalyst loadings were equally 0.2 mg cm−2 in the cathodes of the MEAs. These catalyst-coated membranes (CCMs) were dried at room temperature for more than 12 hours. After the process of stretching out the CCMs, the prepared catalyst ink was sprayed onto the anode side with 0.2 mg cm−2 catalyst loading. Then, gas diffusion layers (GDLs, SGL 35 BC), Teflon type gaskets and one channel serpentine-type (Fig. S9) were put onto the anode and cathode without a hot-press process.

Silica Nanoparticle Dispersion Preparation

Check if the same lab product or an alternative is used in the 5 most similar protocols
2.1 Materials: Ludox AS40 silica nanoparticles (NPs) were obtained from Sigma-Aldrich (UK) as a 40 wt% particle dispersion in water.

About PubCompare

Our mission is to provide scientists with the largest repository of trustworthy protocols and intelligent analytical tools, thereby offering them extensive information to design robust protocols aimed at minimizing the risk of failures.

We believe that the most crucial aspect is to grant scientists access to a wide range of reliable sources and new useful tools that surpass human capabilities.

However, we trust in allowing scientists to determine how to construct their own protocols based on this information, as they are the experts in their field.
