## Abstract Proton exchange membranes were prepared by simultaneous radiation grafting of styrene onto polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) films at room temperature and subsequent sulfonation by chlorosulfonic acid. A series of grafted films with degree of grafting ranging from 0.947% to 35.4% were obta

## Abstract The cost of polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) components is crucial to the commercial viability of the technology. Proton exchange membranes fabricated __via__ the method of radiation grafting offer a cost‐competitive option, because starting materials are inexpensive commodity produ
## Abstract The durability testing of membranes for use in a polymer electrolyte fuel cell (PEFC) has been studied in situ by a combination of galvanostatic steady‐state and impedance measurements. The PEFC measurements, which are time consuming, have been compared to fast ex situ testing in 3% H~2
## Abstract A series of cross‐linked sulphonated poly(sulphide sulphone) (SPSSF) membranes have been prepared __via__ a polyphosphoric‐acid‐catalysed condensation reaction at 180 °C for a period of time (1.5–5.0 h) and the resulting cross‐linking bonds are the highly stable sulphonyl groups. The cr
Structural investigations of PTFE-g-polystyrene sulfonic acid membranes prepared by radiation grafting of styrene onto PTFE were conducted by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). The analyzed materials included original PTFE film as a reference material, grafted film, and sulfonated membrane samp
