Abstract
Disclosed are a gas diffusion layer and a method for preparing the same. In the preparation method, a conductive material is fed to a carbon fiber suspension slurry to obtain a carbon fiber substrate. The carbon fiber substrate is processed to obtain a conductive porous substrate. A hydrophobic layer is formed on the conductive porous substrate to obtain a hydrophobic-conductive porous substrate. Then a microporous layer is formed on the hydrophobic-conductive porous substrate to obtain the gas diffusion layer.
