The resulting copolymers displayed good solubility in common organic solvents. Flexible, transparent, tough membranes were obtained via solution casting. All the films showed high thermal stability with desulfonation temperature over 300℃. They exhibited prominent mechanical properties with Young's modulus around 2.0 GPa. High proton conductivity (0.23 S/cm at 100% RH) was also observed. More importantly, the new materials exhibited low water uptake (30 wt%-75 wt% at 80℃) and improved water stability, which were attributed to the acid-base interaction between sulfonic acid and pyridine functional groups.展开更多

Flexible, transparent and tough membranes with high thermal stability and good mechanical properties were obtained. They exhibited good stability in boiling water and Fenton's reagent at 80 ℃. More interestingly, a nonlinear relationship between proton conductivities of the resulting membranes and the degree of sulfonation (DS) was observed. The membrane with 50% DS exhibited the maximum proton conductivity, which was due to the combinational contributions of sulfonic acid and N-pheny-1,2,4-triazole groups. Thus, the N-phenyl-l,2,4- triazole moiety in this study not only can depress water absorption but also increase proton conductivity, especially at low DS.展开更多

Photosensitive chalcone moiety was introduced to the main chain of copolymers, and the photocrosslinking of resulting copolymer in aqueous electrolyte was attempted. A series of sulfonated copolyimide precursors containing chalcone functional groups in the main chain were prepared with different sulfonation degrees by controlling the molar ratio of SODA, 6FDA and 3DAC. The polymer membranes were prepared from these sulfonated aromatic precursors by solution casting and subsequent thermal imidization. The crosslinking with UV irradiation was attempted in the presence or absence of distilled water. The characterizations of the resulting membrane such as the ion-exchange capacity, water absorption and ionic conductivity were performed with respect to the copolymer compositions and the photocrosslinking conditions.展开更多
A novel sulfonated diamine monomer, 1,2-dihydro-2-(3-sulfonic-4-aminophenyl)-4-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)-phenyl]phthalazin-1-one (S-DHPZDA), was successfully synthesized by direct sulfonation of diamine 1,2-dihydro-2-(4-ami...A novel sulfonated diamine monomer, 1,2-dihydro-2-(3-sulfonic-4-aminophenyl)-4-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)-phenyl]phthalazin-1-one (S-DHPZDA), was successfully synthesized by direct sulfonation of diamine 1,2-dihydro-2-(4-aminophenyl)-4-[4-(4-aminophenoxy)-phenyl]-phthalazin-1-one (DHPZDA). A series of sulfonated polyimides (SPIs), which can be used as the material of the proton exchange membrane (PEM) for the proton exchange membrane fuel cell (PEMFC), were prepared from 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (NTDA), S-DHPZDA, and nonsulfonated diamines DHPZDA. The structure of the monomer and polymers were characterized by FT-IR and 1H NMR. The solubility of the S-DHPZDA-based SPIs has been improved due to the induction of the phthalazione moiety. The SPIs membranes have high thermo-stability, predominant swelling resistance with high ion exchange capacity.展开更多

A series of sulfonated polyimide copolymers was prepared from BAPNS, 1,4,5,8-naphthalenetetracarboxylic dianhydride(NTDA) and nonsulfonated diamine 4,4'-diaminodiphenyl ether(ODA). Flexible, transparent, and mechanically strong membranes were obtained. The novel sulfonated polyimide(SPI) membranes show higher conductivity, for example, SPI-100 shows a conductivity of 0.0698 S/cm at 80℃(SPI-X: Xrefers to molar fraction of BAPNS). The membranes exhibit the permeability of methanol from 2.18×10^-7 cm2/s to 2.57×10^-7 cm2/s, which is much lower than that of Nafion(2.00×10 6 cm^2/s). The copolymers were thermally stable up to 330℃. The sulfonated polyimide copolymers also show reasonable mechanical strength; for example, the maximum tensile strength at break of the sulfonated polyimide copolymer with 100%(molar fraction) BAPNS is 1.35 GPa under high moisture condi- tions. The optimum concentration of BAPNS was found to be 100%(molar fraction) from the view point of proton conductivity, methanol permeability, and membrane stability.展开更多
