Description

This paper presents the preparation of PEM, based on commercial block copolymer of the styrene-butadiene. The copolymer was structurally changed by sulfonation followed by crosslinking, in order to obtain a Proton Exchange Membrane for Fuel Cells. The membranes were structurally tested by FTIR Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy. The Ionic Exchange Capacity (IEC) and thermal behavior were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). The proton conductivity was measured too. (authors)
