Description This thesis focuses on optimizing the fabrication process of electrodes and membranes for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFC) and proton exchange membrane electrolyzers (PEMEL) using an automated Doctor Blade system. The research emphasizes analyzing key parameters such as drying times, solvent selection, and ink viscosity. The primary objective is to enhance electrochemical efficiency, durability, and scalability of the components, with particular attention to cost reduction and the integration of advanced technologies. The study relies on an experimental approach to identify and optimize critical process variables, proposing innovative strategies to improve overall performance.
