Die Erfindung befasst sich mit dem Beschichten von Anionenaustauschmembranen (AEM) mit katalytisch aktiven Material. Die so erhaltenen CCM werden in elektrochemischen Zellen eingesetzt, insbesondere zur alkalischen Wasserelektrolyse. Der Erfindung lag die Aufgabe zu Grunde, ein Verfahren zur Herstellung einer CCM durch Direktbeschichtung anzugeben, welches die notwendige Ebenheit der AEM erhält und möglichst ohne die Verwendung von verlorenen Folien und ohne CMR-Stoffe auskommt. Weiter soll die Quellung minimiert werden. Auch soll das Verfahren mit fluorfreien lonomeren durchführbar sein. Die Erfindung beruht auf der Erkenntnis, dass die Zugabe bestimmter organischer Substanzen dazu führt, dass die AEM nicht oder lediglich geringfügig quillt (Antiquellmittel). Überraschenderweise hat sich herausgestellt, dass sich als Antiquellmittel geeignete Substanzen anhand ihres Löslichkeits-verhaltens identifizieren lassen, genauer gesagt, anhand ihrer Hansen-Parameter.

The invention relates to the coating of anion exchange membranes (AEM) with catalytically active substances. The CCM thus obtained are used in electrochemical cells, especially for alkaline water electrolysis. It was an object of the invention to specify a process for producing a CCM by direct 5 coating which maintains the necessary planarity of the AEM and ideally avoids the use of lost films and eschews CMR substances. Swelling shall also be minimized. The process shall also be performable with fluorine-free ionomers. The invention is based on the finding that the addition of certain organic substances has the result that the AEM swells only to a small extent, if at all (antiswelling agent). It has surprisingly been found that substances suitable as antiswelling agents 10 are identifiable by their solubility behaviour, more particularly by their Hansen parameters.
