1. INTRODUCTION
PEM Material of Choice for H2/Air Fuel Cell at 80oC is
Nafion
What is Needed:
A membrane with a high proton conductivity at T120oC and
25% RH
A membrane that operates without water at elevated T
The Problems with Nafion
Nafion dehydrates at T>80oC and RH < 100%.
Expensive
Introduce the tetrazole group to the aromatic polymer backbone for
high proton conductivity and thermal stability
2.EXPERIMENTAL
Synthesize -CN containing Poly(aryl ether )
K2CO3, DMAc
170oC
NaN3,ZnCl2
NMP
2.EXPERIMENT
Phosphoric acid doping process
-Cast the membrane in DMAc solvent
-Wash up and dry in vacuum oven for 24 hours to completely remove salt
-Prepare the samples ( size 1x4 cm)
-Dip samples in Phosphoric acid solution 85% wt
-Measure the weight uptake every 2 hours
