Technical field
The invention belongs to field of membrane science, particularly a kind of half interpenetrating network structure proton exchange membrane and preparation method thereof.
Background technology
Proton exchange membrane is one of most critical parts of direct methanol fuel cell, the conduction not being only proton provides passage, also should stop the diffusion of methyl alcohol as much as possible, and play the effect of separate batteries anode and cathode, its performance quality directly affects the overall performance of fuel cell.The Nafion series product of DuPont are that current over-all properties is best, the commercialization proton exchange membrane be most widely used.Nafion series product have higher proton conductivity, excellent mechanical property, good chemistry and electrochemical stability and lasting work-ing life, but when it is applied to direct methanol fuel cell, there is following deficiency: a) methanol permeability is higher, cause mixed potential at negative electrode, cause battery efficiency lower; B) preparation technology's very complicated, expensive; C) fluorine in material will cause environmental pollution in fuel cell operation and removal process.Therefore, development cost cheap, one of preparation and recovery process is easy, the proton exchange membrane of excellent combination property is direct methanol fuel cell application aspect always core research direction.In recent years, non-fluorine hydro carbons sulfonic acid-based polymer, due to its low price, wide material sources, various structures, advantages of environment protection, is one of main direction of current proton exchange membrane research field.
But non-fluorine hydro carbons sulfonic acid-based polymer also also exists and problems in use, such as will reach high proton conductivity, must use the sulfonic acid-based polymer that sulfonation degree is high.Once the sulfonation degree of non-fluorine hydro carbons sulfonic acid-based polymer is too high, methanol permeability also rises thereupon, and higher water-intake rate also makes the easy swelling fracture of proton exchange membrane, affects structural stability and the work-ing life of film.
Summary of the invention
Not enough for prior art, the invention provides a kind of half interpenetrating network structure proton exchange membrane and preparation method thereof.
Sulfonic acid-based polymer, 2-acrylamide-2-methyl propane sulfonic (AMPS), Ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA), benzophenone are dissolved in polar solvent by the present invention, AMPS autohemagglutination is made to obtain PAMPS, recycling burst of ultraviolel, using benzophenone as light trigger, EGDMA is as linking agent, PAMPS is cross-linked, obtains the proton exchange membrane for fuel cell.In this film, PAMPS has network structure, formation half interpenetrating network structure blended with sulfonic acid-based polymer molecule.Because AMPS self is with sulfonate radical, adding of it has very large lifting to the specific conductivity of proton exchange membrane.Simultaneously due to the existence of cross-linking system, the half interpenetrating network structure formed in film can reduce the diffusion of methyl alcohol, and the dimensional stability of film is increased, and effectively suppresses film to raise because of water-intake rate the overplumping caused, improves the work-ing life of film.In addition, the present invention not by complete for solvent evaporate to dryness, but removes all residual solvents by the immersion of dilute sulphuric acid and water when film forming.In the film process that this is special, polar solvent residual in film and water have good intermiscibility, in film process, water spreads in film, sulfonate radical is under the induction of water molecules, motion flocks together, facilitate being separated in film, be formed with the passage being beneficial to proton conduction, residual solvent spreads and makes to produce nanometer micropore in sulfonic acid-based polymer in water simultaneously.This structure effectively can increase the content of water in film, and promote proton transport, the proton conductivity of film is further enhanced.
