The present invention relates to a branched and sulphonated multi block copolymer and an electrolyte membrane using the same, more precisely, a branched and sulphonated multi block copolymer composed of the repeating unit represented by formula 1 and a preparation method thereof, a hydrogenated branched and sulphonated multi block copolymer, a branched and sulphonated multi block copolymer electrolyte membrane and a fuel cell to which the branched and sulphonated multi block copolymer electrolyte membrane is applied.
The electrolyte membrane of the present invention has high proton conductivity and excellent mechanical properties as well as chemical stability, so it can be effectively used for the production of thin film without the decrease of membrane properties according to the increase of sulfonic acid group since it enables the regulation of the distribution, the location and the number of sulfonic acid group in polymer backbone.
本发明涉及一种分枝磺化多嵌段共聚物及其电解质膜,更具体地说,涉及一种由式1所表示的重复单元组成的分枝磺化多嵌段共聚物及其制备方法,一种氢化分枝磺化多嵌段共聚物,一种分枝磺化多嵌段共聚物电解质膜以及应用该分枝磺化多嵌段共聚物电解质膜的燃料电池。本发明的电解质膜具有高质子传导性和优异的机械性能以及化学稳定性,因此可以有效地用于薄膜的制备,而不会因为磺酸基的增加而导致膜性能下降,因为它能够调节聚合物骨架中磺酸基的分布、位置和数量。
