Disclosed are a catalyst complex and a method of manufacturing the same. The catalyst complex may be manufactured by uniformly depositing metal catalyst particles on pretreated support particles through an atomic layer deposition process using a fluidized-bed reactor, which may be then uniformly dispersed throughout the ionomer solution. As such, manufacturing costs may be reduced due to the use of a small amount of metal catalyst particles and the durability of an electrolyte membrane and OCV may increase. Further disclosed are a method of manufacturing the catalyst complex, an electrolyte membrane including the catalyst complex, and a method of manufacturing the electrolyte membrane.

Catalyst complex for fuel cell, method of manufacturing the catalyst complex, electrolyte membrane including the catalyst complex and method of manufacturing the electrolyte membrane

Disclosed are an electrolyte membrane of a membrane-electrode assembly including an electronic insulation layer, which greatly improves the durability of the electrolyte membrane, and a method of preparing the same. The electrolyte membrane includes an ion exchange layer and an electronic insulation layer provided on the ion exchange layer, and the electronic insulation layer includes one or more catalyst complexes, and a second ionomer Particularly, each of the one or more catalyst complex includes a catalyst particle and a first ionomer coated on the entirety or a portion of the surface of the catalyst particle, and the one or more catalyst complexes are dispersed the second ionomer.

Electrolyte membrane of membrane-electrode assembly including electronic insulation layer and preparation method thereof

Disclosed are a highly durable electrolyte membrane having improved ion conductivity and a method of producing the same. The electrolyte membrane may include an ionomer having hydrogen ion conductivity and a complex dispersed in the ionomer. The complex may include: a support; a primary antioxidant loaded on the support and having radical scavenging ability; and a secondary antioxidant loaded on the support and having peroxide decomposition activity.

Highly durable electrolyte membrane having improved ion conductivity and production method therefor

The present disclosure relates to an electrolyte membrane for fuel cells having improved chemical durability and a method of manufacturing the same. Specifically, the method includes preparing a polymer film, depositing catalyst metal on one surface or opposite surfaces of the polymer film to obtain a reinforcement layer, and impregnating the reinforcement layer with an ionomer to obtain an electrolyte membrane.
