Synthesis and Characterization of Poly(phenylene)-Based Anion Exchange Membranes for Alkaline Fuel Cells

Hibbs, Michael R., Fujimoto, Cy H., Cornelius, Christopher J.·2009·Macromolecules

Abstract

Cationic polymer membranes that conduct free anions comprise an enabling area of research for alkaline membrane fuel cells and other solid-state electrochemical devices that operate at high pH. The synthesis of anion exchange membranes based on a poly(phenylene) backbone prepared by a Diels−Alder reaction is demonstrated. The poly(phenylene)s have benzylic methyl groups that are converted to bromomethyl groups by a radical reaction. Cationic polymers result from conversion of the bromomethyl groups to ionic moieties by quaternization with trimethylamine in the solid state. The conversion to benzyltrimethylammonium groups is incomplete as evidenced by the differences between the IEC values measured by titration and the theoretical IECs based on 1 H NMR measurements. The anion exchange membranes formed from these polymers have hydroxide ion conductivities as high as 50 mS/cm in liquid water, and they are stable under highly basic conditions at elevated temperatures.

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.
