제목 Polyimide nonwoven fabric-reinforced, flexible phosphosilicate glass composite membranes for high-temperature/low-humidity proton exchange membrane fuel cells
초록 We demonstrate polyimide (PI) nonwoven fabric-reinforced, flexible proton-conductive phosphosilicate glass composite membrane (referred to as “PI-GC membrane”) for potential application in high-temperature/low-humidity proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The PI-GC membrane is fabricated via the impregnation of a 3-glycidyloxypropyl trimethoxysilane (GPTMS)/orthophosphoric acid (H3PO4) mixture into a PI nonwoven substrate followed by in-situ sol-gel synthesis and hydrothermal treatment. Owing to its unique structural design and integrity, the PI-GC membrane provides unprecedented improvement in the mechanical properties (notably flexibility and thickness) over typical bulk phosphosilicate glasses that are highly fragile and thick. Another notable advantage of the PI-GC membrane is higher proton conductivity at dehumidified conditions, as compared to a hydration-dependent polymer electrolyte membrane such as sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone) (SPAES).
