Abstract

New electrode geometries with high porosities are of great interest for electrochemical processes. By using additive manufacturing design, the limitations of conventional production processes can be overcome. The presented laserless additive manufacturing method allows us to print any geometrical shape using metal and ceramic pastes. Here, the paste compounds were 70\hspace0.25emvol% nanocellulose and 30\hspace0.25emvol% metal/ceramic powder. Two different electrode geometries were printed, the disc and the gyroid. Furthermore, two different geometries of membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) were printed: a flat and a tubular MEA. Following printing, the green samples were sintered. Afterwards, the disc electrode and flat membrane electrode assembly were coated with IrO2 (anode) and Pt (cathode) catalysts. The coated samples were assembled into a polymeric MEA water electrolyzer (pMEA) and into a ceramic MEA water electrolyzer (cMEA) to evaluate their potentials.
