Description

Method for preparing polybenzimidazole-based porous polymer ion exchange membrane by adopting gas-phase induced phase conversion method and application thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of alkaline water electrolyzers, and particularly relates to a method for preparing a polybenzimidazole-based porous polymer ion exchange membrane by adopting a gas-phase induced phase conversion method and application thereof.
Background
Electrochemical energy storage technology (i.e. the electrochemical decomposition of water to store the surplus electrical energy of renewable energy in the form of hydrogen) is currently receiving increasing attention (IEEE,2012,100,410). Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) systems based on perfluorosulfonic acid membranes can produce high-purity hydrogen when operated at high current densities, but are limited by electrode materials and catalysts in acidic environments, so that large-scale application of the PEM systems is prevented, people begin to turn into the traditional alkaline water electrolyzer technology, and oxidation-reduction reactions which are relatively easy to occur under alkaline conditions promote selection of abundant and cheap materials and catalysts, which is an important aspect of large-scale implementation. Conventional alkaline water electrolysers are durable and robust systems that have been marketed for a long time, but the conventional systems have high internal resistance. Therefore, shortening the inter-electrode distance should be a key strategy to develop cost-effective, superior performance advanced alkaline water electrolysers (j. electrochem. soc.,2016,163, F3197).
A hot approach to achieve this goal is to replace the porous membrane with an anion exchange membrane. This makes possible cell designs with electrode spacings of less than 100mm, i.e. direct contact of gas diffusion electrodes with the membrane (j. hydrogen energy, 2011,36,15089), and therefore anion exchange membranes based on quaternary ammonium salt functionalized polymers have recently received much attention, but improving the polymer backbone structure to improve long term stability and the anion exchange moiety in the hydroxide ionomer form remains a formidable challenge.
Another alternative is to build an electrolytic cell around the ion-solvating electrolyte membrane system formed by the porous polymer with heterocyclic rings doped with alkali solution, the conjugated structure in the polymer with heterocyclic rings has basicity, so that these types of polymers can transport protons or OH after doping with acid or alkali-The mechanical stability and air tightness of the polymer and the conductivity of the alkaline aqueous salt solution are combined to form a ternary system. The system was first investigated by Xing and Savadogo, showing that its ionic conductivity is within the practical range (electrochem. commun.,2000,2, 697). Research has been conducted on technical applications as hydrogen electrolytes in electrode binders, alcohols, fuel cells and supercapacitors.
Porous membranes are prepared by a number of methods including phase inversion, coating, template impregnation, track etching, and the like. Among them, the phase inversion method is most commonly used, such as vapor phase precipitation, thermal precipitation, immersion precipitation, etc. The gas-phase induced phase transformation can enable the phase transformation process to be carried out under the condition close to a steady state, and the prepared porous membrane has uniform aperture and thinner skin layer. The membrane is doped with alkali liquor, so that the conductivity and the liquid holding capacity of hydroxide ions of the membrane can be increased, and the membrane has a good prospect when being applied to an alkaline water electrolyzer.
