Block Copolymer Directed Nanocomposites for Fuel Cell Applications

Dermis T., Mayavan S., Dutta N.K., Choudhury N.R., Holdcroft S., University of South Australia, AU

Block copolymers [1,2] and ionomers comprising fluoro/non-fluoro segments have significant potential applications in the field of fuel cell. However, they are very difficult to synthesize; because fluoro monomers are not amenable to living ionic polymerization [...]

Hydroxyapatite-imidazole-polymer composite films as a proton conductor under no humidified condition

Tsutsumi H., Hisha Y., Yamaguchi University, JP

We prepared the proton conduction system, hydroxyapatite (HAp)-imidazole (Im)-polymer composite films and investigated their structure, conduction behavior and mechanical properties. HAp particles used in our investigation were prepared with two different ways, a-HAp and n-HAp. [...]

Determination of Pore Size Distribution of Nafion/Sulfated beta-Cyclodextrin

Jeon J-D, Lee B.H., Kwak S-Y, Seoul National Univesity, KR

Direct methanol fuel cells are promising candidates for portable power sources and transport applications. One of the critical problems hindering the commercialization of DMFCs is high methanol permeation rate across proton-exchange membranes. In this study, [...]

Dynamics of Water in Nafion Fuel Cell Membranes: the Effects of

Moilanen D.E., Piletic I.R., Fayer M.D., Stanford University, US

The complex environment experienced by water molecules in the hydrophilic channels of Nafion membranes is studied by ultrafast infrared pump-probe spectroscopy. A wavelength dependent study of the vibrational lifetime of the O-D stretch of dilute [...]
