High temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cell is a promising energy conversion device with the advantages of toxicity resistance and good stability. In this report, the multilayered catalytic structure was designed to improve anode electrode catalytic activity of fuel cell. Poly vinylidene fluoride co-hexafluoropropylene(PVDF-HFP) and polybenzimidazoles(PBI) are used as electrode binders to adjust the wettability of the diffusion electrode interface. The surface morphology and wettability of the electrode catalyst have been characterized. It was found that the porosity and roughness of the electrode layer were improved. The wettability distinction between layers(contact angles:149° for PVDF-HFP and 19° for PBI) was conducive to produce more stable three-phase reaction interfaces. The catalytic performance of fuel cells shows that the peak power density is enhanced by about 22%, and it has retained 82.1% and 71.4% in H₂ fuel containing CO at the concentrations of 10000 mg/m³ and 30000 mg/m³, respectively. It is concluded that the catalytic layer with such structure could increase the catalyst utilization and still maintain good toxic resistance to CO impurity inside fuel gas.
