Title:
METHOD FOR LAMINATING COMPOSITE SHEET USING RELEASE FILM, LAMINATE OBTAINED BY THE METHOD, AND RELEASE FILM FOR USE IN THE METHOD
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2012/002579
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
A carbon black (CB)/PTFE composite porous sheet which can be used as the gas diffusion layer of a polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cell or of an electrochemical device for electrolysis or for an application which is accompanied by an electrochemical reaction, such as a gas sensor, is difficult to handle because the porous sheet is flexible and hence is apt to wrinkle or crease. Provided is a method for easily handling the sheet while preventing the sheet from wrinkling or creasing. The method is for laminating a composite sheet comprising functional particles and polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) to a membrane electrode assembly (MEA) and comprises: preparing the MEA; preparing the composite sheet; preparing a release film; superposing the composite sheet on the release film and pressing the stack at ordinary temperature; superposing the composite sheet which has been pressed against the release film at ordinary temperature, on the MEA and hot-pressing the resultant stack; and peeling the release film from the composite sheet.
