“Novel proton exchange membrane based on polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane(POSS)-poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)-b-sulfonated polystyrene(PS)”发表在ECS杂志上
Proton exchange membrane(PEM)plays an important
role in transportation of proton between anode and cathode
and isolation of electrons and fuel, thus is regarded as the
core component in proton exchange membrane fuel cells.
Among the many types of matrix of PEM, Nafion still
dominate the research and market in this field due to its
higher conductivity below 90℃ and excellent chemical
stability
[1]
. However, a high cost and a sharp decline of
proton conductivity due to loss of water content are the two
main limitations for further development ofNafion. A kind
of proton exchange membrane with higher tolerance of
higher temperature and lower humidity will be a promising
PEM material.
