Fabrication of Solid Oxide Film Fuel Cells
The fact that hydrogen will be the last energy source has become no more attractive to us. The main issue is the kind of energy conversion device that we are going to need to survive in the future. Since many researchers have highlighted solid oxide fuel cells as the next generation power source, the main obstacle for commercialization has been the high operation temperature of such cells. As the revolutionary growth of semiconductor fabrication processes have been reported, thin film deposition methods may be applicable to many scientific fields. Recently, thin film processes for oxides and metal deposition, such as physical vapor deposition (PVD) and chemical vapor deposition (CVD), have been widely adapted to fabricate solid oxide fuel cells (SOFCs). And the best choice for spraying SOFC is ultrasonic spraying equipment.
Cheersonic has developed coating processes that prvide excellent results with durable, pinhole-free coatings.And because the equipment has the advantage of extremely high liquid utilization, it can greatly reduce research and production costs. UAM4000L is a tabletop system often used in R&D or low volume production for coating Proton Exchange Membrances (PEMs) or other electrolyte materials with metal catalyst inks. These ultra thin materials require several layers of coating to achieve necessary weight gain of inks without deformation of the delicate membranes.
The advantages of Cheersonic’s ultrasonic equipment include：
1.Very high Platinum utilization proven in MEA fabrication; as high as 90%.
2.Non-clogging
3.Low-flow spray reduces spillage and air pollution.
4.Continuous or intermittent operation possible
5.Highly porous coatings are extremely durable, preventing cracking or peeling of catalyst layer.
6.No moving parts to wear out
7.Minimal maintenance and downtime.
8.Robust design and materials resist corrosion.
9.Ultrasonic energy disperses the agglomerated particles, producing a homogeneous coating.
