Synthesis and characterization of poly(vinyl alcohol) proton exchange membranes modified with 4,4-diaminodiphenylether-2,2-disulfonic acid

Abstract: Abstract.A proton-exchange membrane for a direct methanol fuel cell was prepared by modifying the chemical structure of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) by means of sulfonation. We report the synthesis of a new proton-conducting polymer membrane with poly (vinyl alcohol) and diamine-containing organic molecules immobilized to PVA. The sulfonation was carried out by using 4,4-diaminodiphenyl ether-2,2-disulfonic acid (ODADS). A sulfonated diamine monomer, ODADS, was successfully synthesized by direct sulfonation of a … Show more

“…A typical high molecular weight polyvinyl alcohol by itself is usually not soluble in DMSO below 80 °C . As described by Nakamura, a lower reaction temperature is thermodynamically favorable for the exothermic ketalization of PVAl.…”

“…Afterwards, samples of membranes were immersed in de‐ionized water for 24 h; then, these samples were carefully wiped with a filter paper in order to remove the water excess. They were weighed and thereafter, each membrane sample was dried in an oven at 40 °C for 7 h. The water uptake was calculated using the following equation: Water0.0ex0.0ex0.2emuptake=WwetWdryWwet×100 where W wet is the mass of the fully hydrated membrane (g) and W dry the mass of the dried membrane (g).…”

“…Membranes, conceived by immobilizing 4,4-diaminodiphenylether-2,2-disulfonic acid (ODADS) onto PVA (MW = 72 kDa, Hy = 99.5%), were evaluated in proton exchange for direct methanol fuel cell (DMFC) [30] . It was claimed that ODADS was indeed part of the PVA matrix without indicating how.…”
