SOFCs Spray Coatings

SOFCs Spray Coatings – Ultrasonic Spray Coating System – Cheersonic

Fuel cell technologies have become, in recent years, an important subject of research and innovation. Among different types of fuel cells, the solid oxide fuel cells(SOFCs) have attracted significant attention due to high efficiency,fuel flexibility and silent operation. SOFCs are solid-state devices that utilize electrochemical reactions to generate electricity. Fuel is supplied to the anode where it accepts O2 delivered by the electrolyte in the process of fuel oxidation.The function of the electrolyte is to transport O2 from the cathode to the anode under a gradient of oxygen chemical potentials. The by-products of this reaction are water and heat. The electrons, required for the electrode reactions, are released by the anode and arrive at the cathode via an external load.

Cheersonic’s ultrasonic equipment is suitable for spraying catalyst solutions containing carbon black ink suspension, platinum slurry and other precious metal solutions. From R&D to production, our non-clogging technology results in greater control of coating attributes, significant reduction in materials usage, and reduced maintenance and downtime. It can prepare fuel cell proton exchange membrane with excellent performance. It integrates multiple systems such as ultrasonic, dispersion, carrier gas, liquid, heating station, vacuum adsorption, and exhaust emission control.

The advantages of Cheersonic’s ultrasonic equipment include the following：

1.Capable of coating PEMs with very small liquid sample sizes (only 10ml of catalyst solution necessary to coat multiple PEMs). Ideal for R&D phase.
2.Ultra-low flow rate capabilities
3.The spray beam is highly controllable for reliable and consistent results.
4.Significantly reduced machine downtime for maintenance
5.Spraying proton exchange membrane with high uniformity and good adhesion
6.Heating plate, vacuum plate or combination of heating plate and vacuum plate
7.Non-clogging atomized spray that does not deviate.
