“…This shortcoming can be overcome by converting polyimides into sulfonated polyimides with the introduction of sulfonic acid groups, which makes polymer chains hydrophilic. 25 By the introduction of hydrophilic sulfonate groups into the PI main chain, improved hydrophilicity resulted in higher absorption of water and better ion exchange properties. The hydrophilic sulfonic acid group, an anionic functional group, exhibits strong affinity toward heavy metal ions.…”

“…Over the past few decades, hundreds of low-cost sulfonated polymers, such as sulfonated polyether-ether-ketone [15][16][17][18][19][20], sulfonated polyether sulfone [21][22][23][24][25][26][27][28][29][30][31], and sulfonated polynaphthylimides with different chemical structures, have been synthesized for PEMFCs applications [28,29,32]. Among them, sulfonated polynaphthylimides (SPIs) have attracted considerable attention because of their low cost, excellent physical properties, high methanol gas barrier ability, high thermal stability, and easy-to-adjust chemical structure [33][34][35][36]. However, the unsatisfied stability of SPI membrane in a fuel cell under high temperature and high humidity conditions cannot be ignored [37][38][39].…”

“…However, one of the major drawbacks of polyimides are the lack of proton conductivity. This shortcoming can be overcome by converting polyimide into sulfonated polyimides with the introduction sulfonic acid group, which not only promotes proton conduction, but also makes the polymer chain hydrophilic [16]. However, the hydrolytic stability of these sulfonated polyimides, which is associated with its mechanical stability in a strongly swelled state and its robustness in fuel cell conditions, is compromised due to the presence of a sulfonic acid group.…”
