Preparation and Properties of Composite Proton Exchange Membranes Based on SPES/SiO2 Hybrid Nanofiber
Sulfonated poly(ether sulfone) (SPES)/Silica (SiO2) nanofibers were prepared by solution blowing process
and impregnated to Nafion matrix to prepare SPES/SiO2/Nafion composite proton exchange membranes (PEMs).The characteristics of the composite membrane
such as morphology
thermal stability
proton conductivity and performance of membrane as PEMs
were investigated.The results showed that the introduction of solution-blown nanofibers to composite membranes significantly improved properties of Nafion.The TG results showed all the composite membranes had better thermal stability than pure Nafion.Swelling ratios of all the composite membranes were lower than that of pure Nafion
and those of SPES/SiO2/Nafion-5
SPES/SiO2/Nafion-15 and SPES/SiO2/Nafion-25 were 14.9%
15.84% and 17.2% at 80 ℃
respectively.However
the swelling ratios of composite membranes increased with the increase of SiO2 content in nanofiber.Proton conductivity of the composite membranes increased first and then decreased with the increase of SiO2 content
and the membrane containing 15% SiO2could get 0.154 S/cm at 80 ℃ and 100% humidity.Besides
the methanol resistance was also greatly improved
methanol permeability of the composite membrane containing 25% SiO2decreased by 55.3% compared to that of Nafion.Therefore
the composite membrane containing hybrid SPES/SiO2 nanofibers can be considered as a promising PEM for fuel cell applications.
