Methanol crossover and selectivity of nafion/heteropolyacid/montmorillonite nanocomposite proton exchange membranes for DMFC applications
In this work, we prepared the nafion/montmorillonite/heteropolyacid nanocomposite membranes for direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). The analyses such as X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM) were conducted to characterize the filler dispersion and membrane structure in prepared nanocomposite membranes. XRD patterns of nafion-CsPW-MMT ...
متن کاملIonic Conductivity of an Extruded Nafion 1100 EW Series of Membranes
The proton conductivity of a series of extruded Nafion membranes @of equivalent weight ~EW! of 1100 and nominal dry thickness of 51, 89, 127, and 178 mm# has been studied. Measurements were made in 1 M H2SO4 at 298 K using a four-electrode, dc technique. The membrane area resistance increases with thickness, as expected, from 0.07 to 0.16 V cm for Nafion 112 and Nafion 117, respectively. Howeve...
متن کاملModified CNTs/Nafion composite: The role of sulfonate groups on the performance of prepared proton exchange methanol fuel cell’s membrane
A novel Nafion®-based nanocomposite membrane was synthesized to be applied as direct methanol fuel cells (DMFCs). Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) were coated with a layer of silica and then reacted by chlorosulfonic acid to produce sulfonate-functionalized silicon dioxide coated carbon nanotubes (CNT@SiO2-SO3H). The functionalized CNTs were then introduced to Nafion®, and subsequently, methanol permeab...
متن کاملPhase Equilibrium of NaNO3/KNO3 in Glycerol + H2O Mixed Solvent System at 288.15 K and 298.15 K
“Salting out effect” means that the addition of an organic solvent to an aqueous solution of a salt will reduce the solubility of salts and thus induce its precipitation.1 Therefore, the investigations of the physicochemical properties of inorganic salts in organic solvents – water, such as solubility data together with density, refractive index and so on, are of great scientific importance. Va...
