Abstract：

In order to prepare proton exchange membrane electrolytic water (PEMWE) membrane electrodes assembly (MEA) with different structures and properties, two kinds of membrane electrode assemblys were prepared by electrochemical deposition and spraying.PEMWE membrane electrode assemblys were prepared by electrochemical deposition and spraying respectively. The morphology and electrochemical properties of the membrane electrode assemblys prepared by the two processes were analyzed. The results show that the Pt catalyst prepared by electrochemical deposition have a uniform sheet structure, while the Pt catalyst prepared by spraying have a circular granular shape and is uniformly distributed on the catalytic layer. The polarization curves are tested and it is found that the electrode performance of different processes is also different. Under the current density of 0.5A·cm-2, the voltage difference is 200mV, and the maximum difference is 340mV. Finally, the ink of spraying process is improved, and the membrane electrode assembly performance is steadily improved with the decrease of ionomer content.
