Permethyl Cobaltocenium (Cp*2Co+) as an Ultra-Stable Cation for Polymer Hydroxide-Exchange Membranes
Hydroxide (OH(-))-exchange membranes (HEMs) are important polymer electrolytes enabling the use of affordable and earth-abundant electrocatalysts for electrochemical energy-conversion devices such as HEM fuel cells, HEM electrolyzers, and HEM solar hydrogen generators. Many HEM cations exist, featuring desirable properties, but new cations are still needed to increase chemical stability at elev...
متن کاملSelf-crosslinking for dimensionally stable and solvent-resistant quaternary phosphonium based hydroxide exchange membranes.
A simple self-crosslinking strategy, without the needs of a separate crosslinker or a catalyst, is reported here. The crosslinking drastically lowers the water swelling ratio (e.g., 5-10 folds reduction) and provides excellent solvent-resistance. The self-crosslinked membrane (DCL: 5.3%) shows the highest IEC-normalized hydroxide conductivity among all crosslinked HEMs reported.
متن کاملWater transport in cation exchange membranes
The time variation in emf caused by pressure differences has been used to find transference coefficients of water as well as water permeabilities in ion exchange membranes. Previous experimental methods have been corrected and facilitated. The cation exchange membrane CR61 AZL 386 was investigated. Equilibrium solutions contained 10-4 kmol_m-3 < CKC~ < 10-1 kmol_m-3, or constant concentration o...
متن کاملAnion- or Cation-Exchange Membranes for NaBH4/H2O2 Fuel Cells?
Direct borohydride fuel cells (DBFC), which operate on sodium borohydride (NaBH4) as the fuel, and hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) as the oxidant, are receiving increasing attention. This is due to their promising use as power sources for space and underwater applications, where air is not available and gas storage poses obvious problems. One key factor to improve the performance of DBFCs concerns the...
متن کاملUltra-thin Graphene/Polymer Layered Composite Membranes for NEMS applications
Single layer chemical vapor deposited (CVD) graphene has shown great promise in enabling Micro and Nanoelectromechanical Systems (MEMS/NEMS) that can outperform current silicon-based state of the art. However, current methods in forming single layer graphene MEMS devices result in low yields due to capillary effects acting on the suspended material during the graphene transfer process. In addit...
