Synthesis and characterization of ion exchange capacity controlled and self-crosslinked anion exchange membranes
Functionalized fluorinated poly (arylene ether oxadiazole) (FPAEO) based cross-linked anion exchange membranes (AEMs) with bifunctional agents were prepared via copolymerization
bromination and solution casting using a thermal cross-linking method. FPAEO-TM synthesized via copolymerization of 4
4'-isopropylidenebis (2
6-dimethylphenol) (TM-BPA) and 2
5-bis(2
3
4
5
6-pentafluorophenyl)-1
3
4- oxadiazole(FPOx) was brominated by N-bromosuccinimide (NBS)
thereby avoiding chloromethylation
which required carcinogenic reagents. 1-vinylimidazole acted as a bifunctional agent and played two roles: it served as an ion exchange functional group which provided membranes high conductivity
or as a crosslinking agent to improve the membranes' characteristics. The mambrane's conductivity is 9.02×10-2 S·cm-1 at 80℃ and methanol permeability is 1.89×10-7 cm2·s-1(20℃). Membranes had the potential to be used in alkaline fuel cell alkaline (AFC).
