摘要

The synthesis and thermal as well as proton conducting properties of complex polymer electrolytes based on poly(2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid) PAMPS and poly(1-vinyl-1,2,4-triazole) PVTri were investigated. The materials were produced by complexation of PAMPS with PVTri at various compositions to get PVTriP(AMPS) (x) where x is the molar ratio of the polymer repeating units and varied from 0.25 to 4. The structure of the materials was confirmed by FT-IR spectroscopy. The TGA results verified that the polymer electrolytes are thermally stable up to approximately 200 A degrees C. The DSC and SEM results demonstrated the homogeneity of the materials. The electrochemical stability of the materials was studied by cyclic voltammeter (CV). Proton conductivity, activation energy, and water/methanol uptake of these membranes were also measured. After humidification (RH = 50%), PVTriP(AMPS)(2) and PVTriP(AMPS)(4) showed proton conductivities of 0.30 and 0.06 S/cm at 100 A degrees C, respectively.
