Definitions
- the invention relates to a method for manufacturing a proton conductive membrane.
- proton conductive membranes are made by wet polymerization. They are integrated in proton exchange membranes via a hot pressing step or via spraying / jet techniques.
- the membranes were synthesized by plasma polymerization of triflic acid and styrene or 1 -3 butadiene.
- the membranes obtained present strong mechanical limitations for being integrated in proton exchange membranes for fuel cells. Indeed, the precursors used in this prior art documents have short and strongly cross-linked fluoro-carbonated chains, so poor mechanical properties of the obtained membranes being associated. Indeed, the membranes used for proton conductive materials must present very good mechanical properties.
- FR2909013 proposes to manufacture proton conductive layers by plasma assisted chemical vapour deposition of water with a fluorocarbon precursor.
- the layers which are thus deposited are functionalised by carboxylic acid functions.
- Carboxylic acids have pKa much higher than sulfonic acids. Consequently, to obtain high proton conductivities with carboxylic functions, a high concentration of carboxylic functions is required. This is responsible for the low mechanical properties of the obtained layers.
- FR2928227 proposes to manufacture a proton conductive membrane using a chemical deposition by plasma vaporization.
- Two precursors are polymerized, each containing at least one polymerizable group or one ionic group.
- the precursors are chosen among phosphonyl ester, acyl ester, sulfonyl ester, carbonyl ester and thionyl halide. Because the precursors are plasma vaporized, there is a huge risk to damage the chemical structure of the precursors during this vaporization step. Taking into account the very low stability of the persilylated compounds, these latters can hardly be considered as viable precursors for a commercial application.
- the invention aims to palliate these drawbacks of the prior art proton conductive membranes.
- the invention proposes a method for depositing a proton conductive membrane on the surface of a substrate comprising the following steps:
- - A is P or S
- - R is a Ci-C 25 , saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, alkyl chain optionally comprising a cyclic or aromatic group, and
- the substrate temperature is comprised between 5 and 40°C, preferably is 20°C.
- the polymerisation initiator is a radical initiator, preferably ter-butyl peroxide, or ter-amyl peroxide.
- the polymerisation initiator in step a) is a photo-polymerisation initiator, preferably benzophenone or 2,20-azobiz (2- methylpropane).
- step b) preferably comprises the following steps: bl) immersing the substrate covered with layer of polymer obtained in step a) in a basic solution having a pH > 7, preferably > 10, and
- step bl immersing the substrate covered with layer obtained in step bl) in an acid solution having a pH ⁇ 7, preferably ⁇ 5.
- step b) can also comprise the following steps:
- step b'O peeling off the layer obtained in step a) from the substrate, b'l) immersing the layer in a basic solution having a pH > 7, preferably > 10, and
- step b'2 immersing the substrate covered with layer obtained in step bl) in an acid solution having a pH ⁇ 7, preferably ⁇ 5.
- the basic solution in step bl) or b'l) comprises a polar aprotic solvent, preferably chosen among dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, or hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) and mixtures thereof.
- a polar aprotic solvent preferably chosen among dimethyl sulfoxide, dimethylformamide, dimethylacetamide, N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone, or hexamethylphosphoramide (HMPA) and mixtures thereof.
- the gaseous mixture in step a) further comprises at least one monomer having a formula different from formula I, preferably ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA).
- EGDMA ethylene glycol dimethacrylate
- the temperature of the wire (filament) is between 260 and 360°C, preferably 280°C.
- the surface of the substrate on which the proton conductive membrane is preferably made of ceramic, glass, silica or silicon.
- the surface of the substrate on which the layer of polymer is deposited has a root mean square (RMS) higher than 5 nm, preferably higher than 500 nm, and preferably lower than 1 nm.
- RMS root mean square
- the RMS is the mean value of the average geometric difference, as compared to the average line of the roughness.
- a particularly preferred monomer of formula I used in the process of the invention is perfluoro(4-methyl-3,6-dioxaoct-7ene) sulfonylfluoride and the polymerisation initiator preferably is a radical initiator, preferably tert-butyl peroxide (TBO).
- TBO tert-butyl peroxide
- the invention proposes to manufacture a proton conductive membrane by depositing sulfonyl and/or phosphonyl halide precursors via a hot wire CVD mechanism on the surface of a substrate.
- the temperature of the substrate is preferably comprised between 5 and 40°C. More preferably, the temperature of the substrate is 20°C.
- the method of the invention then comprises the chemical transformation of the sulfonyl/phosphonyl halides of the obtained layer into the corresponding sulfonic/phosphonic acid forms.
- the deposition of the polymer layer is made by a hot wire (filament)
- initiated CVD will be used.
- the layer is deposited using at least two monomers having the following formula I:
- - A is P or S
- - R is a CrC 25 , saturated or unsaturated, linear or branched, alkyl chain optionally comprising a cyclic or aromatic group.
- each monomer at least one vinyl or fluorovinyl group is present.

- the layer is deposited on the surface of the substrate having a roughness higher than 500 nm, preferably higher than 500 nm RMS and preferably lower than 1 nm in order to improve the adhesion of the layer on the substrate.
- the surface of the substrate on which the layer of polymer is deposited may be patterned. It may be made of ceramic such as alumina (A1 2 0 3 ), zirconium (Zr0 2 ) and titanium oxide (Ti0 2 ), glass, silica or silicon.
- ceramic such as alumina (A1 2 0 3 ), zirconium (Zr0 2 ) and titanium oxide (Ti0 2 ), glass, silica or silicon.
- the gaseous flow containing the monomer precursors and the polymerisation initiator may also contain monomers different from the monomers precursors of formula I to modulate the properties of the layer of polymer which is deposited.
- molecules with specific groups such as aromatic groups, may be added to improve the mechanical resistance of the deposited layer.
- Monomers with long linear chain may be also added to obtain a better elasticity of the larger of polymer which is deposited.
- a radical polymerisation cross-linker such as ethylene glycol dimethacrylate (EGDMA) may be added to the flow to modulate the coating cross-linking, more particularly for improving the coating cross-linking.

- the layer of polymer, or more preferably the substrate covered of the layer is immerged in an acid solution having a pH ⁇ 7, preferably ⁇ 5 such as a solution of HN0 3 or H 2 S0 4 , for acidifying the layer which is necessary for membranes for fuel cells.

- Perfluoro(4-methyl-3,6-dioxaoct-7ene) sulfonylfluoride is liquid. It is vaporized in the vacuum chamber with an initiator, TBPO, and nitrogen.
- the filament (wire) of the CVD apparatus is heated at 280°C and the substrate is maintained at 20°C.
- the NiCr filament of the CVD apparatus is heated by DC power supply of 36W (current 2 A at 18V) and the substrate holder is at 20 mm from the filament.
- the substrate holder is cooled down at 20°C.
- the monomer flow rate is 2 seem, TBPO and nitrogen are introduced at 2 and 1 seem respectively, and the total pressure is 2 torr during 1 h to obtain a thickness of membrane of 240 nm.
