Relative Chemical Stability of Imidazolium-Based Alkaline Anion Exchange Polymerized Ionic Liquids

Ye, Yuesheng, Elabd, Yossef A.·2011·Macromolecules

Abstract

We thoroughly investigate and quantify the chemical stability of an imidazolium-based alkaline anion exchange polymerized ionic liquid (PIL), poly(1-[(2-methacryloyloxy)ethyl]-3-butylimidazolium hydroxide) (poly(MEBIm-OH), over a broad range of humidities, temperatures, and alkaline concentrations using the combined techniques of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. High chemical stability was observed under dry conditions (10% RH) at 30 °C, humid and saturated conditions up to 80 °C, and even in mild alkaline conditions ([KOH] < 1 M) at 25 °C. Degradation was only observed under more vigorous conditions: dry conditions (10% RH) at 80 °C or at higher alkaline concentrations ([KOH] > 1 M). Under these conditions, we suggest an imidazolium ring-opening mechanism as the primary degradation pathway, based on a detailed analysis of the 1 H NMR spectra. Similar to poly(MEBIm-OH), other alkaline anion (carbonate (CO 3 2– ) and bicarbonate (HCO 3 – )) exchange PILs were also synthesized in this study via salt metathesis of the PIL precursor, poly(1-[(2-methacryloyloxy)ethyl]-3-butylimidazolium bromide) (poly(MEBIm-Br)). The thermal and ion conductive properties of each PIL in this study were characterized. The ionic conductivity of the hydroxide conducting PIL, poly(MEBIm-OH), was the highest of these PILs investigated at 9.6 mS cm –1 at 90% RH and 30 °C with an Arrhenius activation energy of 17.1 kJ mol –1 at 90% RH.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
