Trends Sulfonated poly(arylene ether sulfone) copolymers for PEMs

Here novel biphenol-based wholly aromatic poly(arylene ether sulfone)s containing up to two pendant sulfonate groups per repeat unit were prepared by direct aromatic nucleophilic substitution polycondensation of disodium 3,3'disulfonate-4,4'-dichlorodiphenylsulfone, 4,4'dichlorodiphenylsulfone and 4,4'-biphenol.

Copolymerization proceeded to high molecular weight in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone at 190°C. Tough membranes were successfully cast using N,N-dimethylactamide. An increase in sulfonate groups in the copolymer resulted in increased glass transition temperature, and enhanced membrane hydrophilicity and intrinsic viscosity. The new copolymers are candidates as new polymeric electrolyte materials for PEMFCs.

## Abstract Long‐term deterioration in the performance of PEFCs is attributed largely to reduction in active area of the platinum catalyst at cathode, usually caused by carbon‐support corrosion. It is found that the use of graphitic carbon as cathode‐catalyst support enhances its long‐term stabilit

## Abstract Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were shortened from 5 to 15 μm to ca. 200 nm using ball milling with ethanol as the milling aid agent, and a platinum catalyst with these shortened carbon nanotubes (SCNTs) as the support was prepared by a high‐pressure colloidal method. It was found that this ca
