Polymers were synthesized by polymerization of 4-vinylbenzyl chloride with three kinds of aromatic monomers, respectively. Quaternization of these polymers with triethylamine were performed to fabricate associated anion exchange membranes (AEMs) possessing different pendants. The obtained AEMs showed excellent stability in alkaline solutions at elevated temperature and exhibited conductivities of 32.6-39.5 mS cm(-1) in water at 80 degrees C. In particular, the AEM having a pendant of p-ethyl phenol could maintain the initial conductivity of 89% after immersed in 1 M KOH at 80 degrees C for 1000 h. Even soaked in 8 M KOH solution at 80 degrees C for 24 h, this AEM still exhibited a conductivity of 26.4 mS at 80 degrees C, about 80% of its original conductivity was remained. However, the rest of prepared AEMs showed significant decline in conductivity. We studied the tolerance of the prepared AEMs to 8 M KOH at 80 degrees C in the presence of p-ethyl phenol with a concentration of 0.025 M. It is found that the stability of all the AEMs was obviously enhanced, about 70-90% of the initial conductivity was retained. This result suggests an effective strategy to improve the alkaline stability of the AEMs.
