Disclosure of Invention
The present invention is based on the discovery and recognition by the inventors of the following facts and problems: the proton transmission channel in the PEM is one of the important factors for improving the proton transmission efficiency, and for the research on the proton transmission channel in the PEM, three models, namely a cluster-network model, a short rod model and a parallel column model, of the proton transmission channel are common, and the cluster-network model proposed by Gierke is most widely recognized among the three models. Hydrophilic sulfonic acid groups in Nafion after water absorption and water molecules form ion clusters with the diameter of about 4nm together, each ion cluster is composed of a certain amount of reverse micelle structures which cover water molecules in sulfonic acid groups, and water channels between the clusters are communicated with each other to form a cluster-network structure for proton transmission. Furthermore, eisenberg proposed a classical ion cluster-cluster (phase) model for ion exchange resins in the non-hygroscopic state: i.e., below a certain "low critical ion content", individual sulfonate ionic groups are present in combination with the counter salt ion as isolated ion pairs; when the ion content exceeds the "low critical ion content", a plurality of isolated ion pairs are aggregated into ion clusters, and when the ion content is further increased to a certain "high critical ion content", the ion clusters are aggregated into a cluster phase for the second time.
For the application of ion exchange resins to proton exchange membranes, hydrophilic single sulfonic acid groups or sulfonic acid-hydrate groups (in this case H) + /H 3 O + As counter-ion) exists as a stand-alone ion pair, with ion content (i.e., ion exchange capacity)) The plurality of isolated ion pairs are gathered and/or the isolated ion pairs absorb water and then are gathered to form ion clusters; the ion clusters further aggregate into cluster phases as the ion content increases; the plurality of cluster phases and the hydrophobic C-F main chain form a cluster-network structure to construct a good proton transmission channel. But the current report of research on reducing the critical ion content to form a cluster phase structure with higher concentration is relatively lacked.
