An rGo protection layer fabricated on lithium metal anodes formed mosaic patterns, in which the interconnected gaps serve as the passage for uniform lithium plating/stripping. Excellent electrochemical performance was achieved even under high lithium influx and a limited Li supply.
A series of novel organic-inorganic hybrid membranes assembled by side-chain type sulfonated poly(arylene ether ketone sulfone) with amino groups (Am-SPAEKS-DBS) and ZIF-67 were prepared. Am-SPAEKS-DBS containing double bonds was synthesized by condensation polymerization, and the AMPS was grafted onto the main chain by post sulfonation. ZIF-67 was prepared by an ordinary solvent method. The structures of ZIF-67, Am-SPAEKS-DBS, and hybrid membranes were analyzed by proton nuclear magnetic resonance ( 1 H NMR), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), powder X-ray diffraction (PXRD) and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR). All hybrid membranes had good dimensional stability and excellent oxidation stability. In addition, the swelling ratios of all hybrid membranes were low (<17.46%) at even 100 C, and the oxidative stability was higher than 92%. The proton conductivities of this series of membranes were much higher (0.0540.069 S cm À1 at 30 C, 0.088-0.116 S cm À1 at 80 C) than pure membrane (0.038 S cm À1 at 30 C, 0.076 S cm À1 at 80 C).The experimental results exhibited that the comprehensive properties of hybrid membranes are good, and hybrid membranes had substantially possible as proton exchange membranes.
Highlights• Metal-organic frameworks were anchored on side-chain type organic polymer backbone.• The hybrid PEMs showed good dimensional stability and excellent oxidation stability.• The imidazole as a ligand in ZIF-67 contributes a part of the dissociated protons.
