Description

Composite alkaline polymer electrolyte membrane and preparation and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of alkaline polymer electrolyte exchange membranes; the invention also relates to a preparation method of the alkaline polymer electrolyte exchange membrane with higher conductivity and good mechanical property.
Background
In recent years, with the shortage of energy and the increasing prominence of environmental issues, new green and environmentally-friendly energy is gradually a hot spot of global research. Electrochemical energy devices (such as alkaline anion exchange membrane fuel cells, water electrolysis cells, flow batteries, metal air batteries and the like) which adopt alkaline polymer electrolyte exchange membranes (APEMs) as solid electrolytes have the advantages of high specific power density, low cost, cleanness, environmental protection and the like, and become the focus of attention of researchers. However, the performance of the APEMs at present can not meet the requirements of the application environment of the electrochemical device. In the working environment, the existence of strong base, high temperature, strong electric field and magnetic field makes the stability, conductivity and mechanical property of the APEMs face a great challenge, how to balance the contradiction between the conductivity and mechanical property of the APEMs, and the improvement of the chemical stability in the high-temperature alkaline environment becomes the research focus in the field of the APEMs.
Much work has been done by researchers to increase the conductivity of APEMs. Guiver et al prepared block copolymer APEMs with polysulfone as the main chain, and the membrane not only has high conductivity, but also keeps lower liquid absorption and swelling, and has certain advantages in performance. The conductivity of APEMs with long side chains prepared by Linanwen et al by click chemistry under water saturation conditions can reach 62mS cm-1. The research on the improvement of the conductivity is highlighted by the subject group of the Zhulin teacher at Wuhan university, who prepares polysulfone-type APEMs with good micro-phase separation structure through molecular structure design. They form continuous and obvious micro-phase separation structure for APEMs by grafting long hydrophobic side chain onto main chain far away from functional group, and construct structure beneficial to OH-The channels of transport, thereby effectively increasing the conductivity of APEMs, which exceeds that of commercial products at 80 ℃

The conductivity of the membrane.
At present, although the performance of the APEMs can meet the requirements of an electrochemical system, the main chain of the APEMs commonly used contains ether bonds, which causes the stability of the main chain of the APEMs to have certain hidden troubles in the working environment of an electrochemical device. Because of the strong nucleophile OH in the alkaline environment-Attack the C-O bond in the backbone, which can hydrolyze and break the bond, resulting in the fragmentation of the membrane as a whole (PNAS, February 12,2013, vol.110). Researches show that the polystyrene-based main chain has better chemical stability in a high-temperature alkaline environment. However, polystyrene as a hard material, the mechanical properties of APEMs prepared by functionalizing it are still very challenging (especially for preparing ultrathin films, this problem is more prominent). Therefore, the key point for promoting the development and application of the APEMs is to improve the mechanical property of the polystyrene by utilizing the advantage of the chemical stability of the hydrocarbon main chain. Chemical crosslinking and composite reinforcement are the commonly used methods for enhancing the mechanical property of the membrane at present, although the two methods can improve the mechanical strength of the membrane, reduce the swelling of the membrane and enhance the ruler of the membrane to a certain extentDimensional stability, but both methods still have certain disadvantages. Wherein, the IEC value of the membrane is reduced by adopting a chemical crosslinking method, so that the conductivity of the membrane is reduced; because the ion conducting part and the reinforcing part of the membrane prepared by adopting the composite reinforcing membrane method of the base membrane lack chemical action, the polymer conducting ions can be removed from the base membrane along with the prolonging of the working time, so that the membrane loses the capability of conducting ions; membranes made by blending (especially two or more charged polymers) can suffer from macroscopic phase separation due to poor compatibility of the two polymers, resulting in poor or no ionic conductivity, or even failure to make uniform membranes.
