- Abstract
Photocurable electrolytes were prepared by mixing proton conductive polymer sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (SPEEK), cross-linking monomer divinyl sulfone (DVS), photoinitiator phenylbis(2,4,6-trimethylbenzoyl)phosphineoxide (PI), dimethylacetamide (DMA), and ethanol. To investigate the proton transport property, a series of photocurable electrolytes with various PI content ratios were prepared to form photocured membranes. Water uptake, ion exchange capacity (IEC), proton conductivity, and water-resistance of the photocured membranes were investigated. Water-resistant photocured membrane is easy to prepare, which gives relatively high proton conductivity (28 mS cm^<-1> under 70 ℃ and relative humidity of 90 %). Patterning of micro-structure on the photocured membrane was also demonstrated by using the property of the photocurable electrolytes., identifier:https://dspace.jaist.ac.jp/dspace/handle/10119/10628
