“…Indeed, a high methanol permeability is the common drawback of all the membranes used nowadays in DMFCs, i.e. perfluorosulfonated ionomers (PFSI), such as Nafion ® , sulfonated polyaromatics, including polysulfone (PSUs) [2,3], polyetheretherketone (SPEEK) [4,5] and polyphenylene oxide (SPPO) [6], and polybenzimidazole [7,8]. The main strategy used until now toovercome this problem consists in dispersing inorganic fillers, such as silica [9], heteropolyacid [10,11], and zirconium phosphate [12] within the polymer.…”
