Resumen de: AU2025202787A1

Abstract 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.
