“…Poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK), poly(ether sulfone) (PES), polyimides, polybenzimidazoles and organic-inorganic composites cation-exchange membranes were reported in the literature (Hickner et al, 2004;Tripathi and Shahi, 2008;Saxena et al, 2007aSaxena et al, , 2007b. Aromatic based PEMs were prepared either by sulfonation of super-engineering plastics or copolymerization of aromatic monomers containing sulfonic acid groups (Chen et al, 2007).…”
