Microphase separation morphology characterization is performed on the block anion-exchange membrane prepared in this example by using a Transmission Electron Microscope (TEM), and the result is shown in fig. 2. As can be clearly seen from fig. 2, the block anion-exchange membrane prepared in the embodiment has a clear hydrophilic-hydrophobic microphase separation morphology, and hydrophilic regions are communicated with each other to form a through hydrophilic channel, so that a smooth channel is provided for ion transmission, thereby improving the ion transmission efficiency and further improving the conductivity of the anion-exchange membrane. And the hydrophobic region provides mechanical support for the anion exchange membrane, and ensures the mechanical stability of the membrane.
The block anion exchange membrane prepared in this example has such a clear hydrophilic-hydrophobic microphase separation appearance mainly because: the film-forming polymer (functionalized polymer) prepared in this embodiment has a special structure, on one hand, one section of the film-forming polymer contains a hydrophilic pyrrolidinium salt ion functional group, and the other section of pentafluorostyrene is hydrophobic, and on the other hand, the film-forming polymer also has a soft-hard section structure, wherein the first section of the polymer is a flexible chain section, the second section of the polymer is a rigid chain section, the soft-hard section structure is favorable for micro-phase separation to form a through ion channel, and the soft-hard section structure is also favorable for the film to maintain certain mechanical strength.
The block anion exchange membrane prepared in the embodiment has the chlorine type conductivity of 5.94mS/cm at 30 ℃ and is increased to 9.84mS/cm along with the temperature increase to 60 ℃.
Tests prove that the water content of the block anion-exchange membrane prepared in the embodiment is 17.6wt% at 30 ℃, the linear swelling rate is 1.43%, and the water content and the linear swelling rate are 21.5wt% and 1.65% respectively when the temperature is raised to 60 ℃.
The block anion exchange membrane prepared in this example was subjected to a strength test as shown in fig. 3, wherein the abscissa strain shown in fig. 3 represents strain in units, and the ordinate strain represents stress in units of MPa. The mechanical strength of the dry film measured by a dynamic mechanical analyzer is 18.3MPa, and the elongation at break is 101.1%, which shows that the film has good mechanical properties and can meet the use requirements of fuel cells.
The block anion exchange membrane prepared in this example was subjected to a heat resistance stability test to obtain a thermal decomposition curve of the membrane as shown in FIG. 4, wherein the abscissa Temperature shown in FIG. 4 represents the Temperature in units and the ordinate Weight retention represents the Weight retention of the membrane in units. As shown in fig. 4, the block anion exchange membrane prepared in this embodiment starts thermal decomposition at 211 ℃, whereas the operating temperature of a general fuel cell is 60-90 ℃, and the thermal decomposition temperature of the block anion exchange membrane is much higher than the use temperature of the membrane, so the block anion exchange membrane prepared in this embodiment has higher heat-resistant stability.
