초록
고분자전해질 수소연료전지는 수소와 산소의 전기화학적 반응을 이용하여 전기를 자발적으로 생산하며, 높은 전류밀도와 비교적 낮은 구동온도의 장점을 가져 화석연료를 대체할 미래 친환경 화학에너지 변환 장치이다. 현재 연료전지는 수소전기차를 중심으로 가정용 연료전지, 수소연료전지 발전소 등 다양한 산업에서 활용 중에 있다. 하지만 연료전지 산업의 지속적인 성장을 위해서는 여러 기술적인 문제가 보완되어야 하며, 그 중에서도 연료전지 각 구성요소의 장기 내구성을 필수적으로 확보해야 한다. 특히 연료전지의 연료극과 공기극에서 사용되는 탄소담지 백금촉매는 연료전지 운전조건에 따라 다양한 기작을 통하여 성능 감소가 일어난다. 이에 연료전지용 촉매의 내구성 파악을 위한 가속테스트법이 다양하게 제시되고 있다. 본 논문에서는 연료전지용 백금 기반 촉매의 성능 감소 기작을 설명하고, 지금까지 제시된 가속스트레스 시험을 통한 내구성 평가 방법에 대해 비교하고자 한다.
Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) generate electricity by electrochemical reactions of hydrogen and oxygen. PEMFCs are expected to alternate electric power generator using fossil fuels with various advantages of high power density, low operating temperature, and environmental-friendly products. PEMFCs have widely been used in a number of applications such as fuel cell vehicles (FCVs) and stationary fuel cell systems. However, there are remaining technical issues, particularly the long-term durability of each part of fuel cells. Degradation of a carbon supported-platinum catalyst in the anode and cathode follows various mechanistic origins in different fuel cell operating conditions, and thus accelerated stress test (AST) is suggested to evaluate the durability of electrocatalyst. In this article, comparable protocols of the AST durability test are intensively explained.
