摘要
A series of triple-layer membranes were prepared based on a sulfonated polyimide (SPI) and a traditional sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) polymer matrix. Compared with the single-component membranes (pure SPI and SPEEK), the multicomponent membranes exhibited better comprehensive performance. Interestingly, the triple-layer membranes possessed improved mechanical properties, lower water uptake, and swelling ratio than those of the corresponding blend membranes. When the contents of SPI were 30 and 40%, the triple-layer membranes even had lower methanol permeability (3.42 and 2.61x10(-7)cm(2)s(-1), respectively) than that of the pure SPI membrane (3.51x10(-7)cm(2)s(-1)). The proton conductivity of the triple-layer membranes was in the range of 0.117-0.149Scm(-1) at 100 degrees C. All the results suggest that the triple-layer membranes have sufficiently excellent performance to be applied in fuel cells.
