Abstract

Summary: Branched/crosslinked sulfonated polyimide membranes incorporating superior mechanical properties, high proton conductivity, and excellent fuel cell performance were successfully developed. The resulting polymer electrolytes displayed conductivity values of about 0.2 S · cm^βˆ’1^ at 120 °C and 100% relative humidity. In a single H~2~/O~2~ fuel cell system at 90 °C, they exhibited reasonably high fuel cell performances comparable to that of Nafion 112.

The structure of the branched/crosslinked sulfonated polyimide membranes studied here.

A new, milder sulfonation process was used to produce ion-exchange polymers from a commercial polysulfone (PSU). Membranes obtained from the sulfonated polysulfone are potential substitutes for perfluorosulfonic acid membranes used now in polymer electrolyte fuel cells. Sulfonation levels from 20 to
