摘要:
为进一步提升阴离子交换膜(AEMs)在高浓度热碱性环境下的综合性能,本研究将疏水亲水双功能侧链“并联”引入无吸电子CO基聚芳醚主链,构建新型结构阴离子交换膜。无吸电子CO基聚芳醚可有效避免主链降解,疏水亲水双功能侧链可协同优化离子传输通道并提供空间保护作用,二者协同提升膜的综合性能。研究表明亲疏水侧链长度均为6个碳时,膜PEAMQC6H6的综合性能最佳。此时,膜的溶胀率为9.0%(80 ℃),拉伸强度为38.9 MPa,80 ℃时OH-离子电导率高达140.3 mS/cm,且在4 mol/L KOH、80 ℃条件下浸泡1 500 h后,电导率保持率达92.4%。此外,PEAMQC6H6组装的单电池功率密度高达1.18 W/cm2(80 ℃)。该研究为开发高性能阴离子交换膜提供了新思路。
 
To enhance the overall performance of anion exchange membranes (AEMs) under harsh, hot alkaline conditions, a novel membrane architecture was designed by integrating hydrophobic-hydrophilic dual-functional side chains in a parallel configuration onto a CO-free poly(arylene ether) backbone. The CO-free backbone was employed to mitigate alkaline-induced backbone degradation, while the dual-functional side chains were intended to synergistically facilitate the formation of efficient ion-conducting pathways and provide steric protection for the cationic groups. AEMs with varying side chain lengths were synthesized and characterized. The membrane incorporating hexyl chains for both functionalities (PEAM-QC6H6) demonstrated the most balanced property profile. It exhibited a low swelling ratio of 9.0% at 80 ℃, a tensile strength of 38.9 MPa, and a high hydroxide conductivity of 140.3 mS/cm at 80 ℃. Remarkably, it retained 92.4% of its initial conductivity after being immersed in 4 mol/L KOH at 80 ℃ for 1 500 hours. Furthermore, a H2/O2 fuel cell assembled with the PEAMQC6H6 membrane achieved a peak power density of 1.18 W/cm2 at 80 ℃. This work provides a promising strategy for the molecular design of durable, high-performance AEMs.
