Hydrocarbon-based fuel cell membranes: Sulfonated crosslinked poly(1,3-cyclohexadiene) membranes for high temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cells

Abstract: a b s t r a c tHigh temperature fuel cell membranes based on poly(1,3-cyclohexadiene) were prepared by a Polymerization-Crosslinking-Sulfonation (PCS) approach, and a broad range of membrane compositions were achieved using various sulfonating reagents and reaction conditions. Membranes were characterized for their proton conductivity and thermal degradation behavior. Some of the membranes showed up to a 68% increase in proton conductivity as compared to Nafion under the same conditions (100% relative humidity… Show more

“…However, they have some demerits, such as poor conductivity at high temperature (> 80 °C) and high methanol permeability, as well as high preparation cost . Hydrocarbon‐based PEMs have been developed to replace these perfluorinated ionomers . However, they also still have severe limitations, including poor chemical stability after long‐term use.…”

“…One of the most promising alternative power source have been the PEMFC (Proton exchange membrane fuel cell) for operating in lower temperatures (80ºC/ 90ºC) and easy scale-up, which are attractive features for use in automotive vehicles. Furthermore, they can also be used in portable and stationary power generation [4,5].…”

“…[37,38] Recently, we reported the first aliphatic proton exchange membrane material based on poly (1,3-cyclohexadiene) (PCHD). [39,40]Chemical durability of hydrocarbon membranes poses an issue due to the aliphatic hydrogens being susceptible to attack by peroxy and hydroperoxy radicals generated during fuel cell operation. [38,41]Recognizing that chemical durability is a serious issue, these are considered as limited model systems that nonetheless have a number of variables which can be manipulated to optimize other properties.…”
