“…This is due to the presence of two types of sorption centers (acidic and basic) in the membrane, as well as due to the influence of hydration and the volume of membrane pores on the concentration and conformation of analyte ions. It is known that a change in the hydration of Nafion-type membranes, as well as the conformational transformations of polymer chains influencing on the distribution of sulfo groups inside the material and on the pore size, can be achieved by thermal treatment at the various relative humidities and the mechanical deformation of them [23,24,25,26,27,28]. Such changes are difficult at room temperature, i.e., are irreversible (“memory effect” of membranes).…”
