METHOD OF MAKING A CATALYST INK AND CONTINUOUS CATALYST INK MIXING SYSTEM

Abstract: methods of continuously dispersing catalyst inks for use in coating processes are described. the catalyst ink is continuously mixed in a high shear mixing unit, and the mixed ink is sonicated in a sonication unit. part of the sonicated catalyst ink is returned to the high shear mixing unit. the method provides continuous mixing and sonicating of the catalyst ink. the mixed and sonicated ink can then be applied to a substrate in a defined pattern.
