Phosphonium-Functionalized Polyethylene: A New Class of Base-Stable Alkaline Anion Exchange Membranes
摘要:
A tetrakis(dialkylamino)phosphonium cation was evaluated as a functional group for alkaline anion exchange membranes (AAEMs). The base stability of [P(N(Me)Cy)(4)](+) was directly compared to that of [BnNMe3](+) in 1 M NaOD/CD3OD. The high base stability of [P(N(Me)Cy)(4)](+) relative to [BnNMe3](+) inspired the preparation of AAEM materials composed of phosphonium units attached to polyethylene. The AAEMs (hydroxide conductivity of 22 +/- 1 mS cm(-1) at 22 degrees C) were prepared using ring-opening metathesis polymerization, and their stabilities were evaluated in 15 M KOH at 22 degrees C and in 1 M KOH at 80 degrees C.

membranes in electrochemical devices, especially those requiring high alkalinestability. Using the same polymer backbone and NHC ligand, membranes are prepared using low oxophilicity metals such as Cu, Zn, Ni and Au, and their relative alkalinestabilities are compared. The Au(III) metallopolymer demonstrates unparalleled alkalinestability and good ion-conductivity.

Chemically inert, mechanically tough, cationic metallo-polyelectrolytes designed as durable anion-exchange membranes (AEMs) via ring-opening metathesis polymerization (ROMP) of cobaltocenium-containing cyclooctene with triazole as the only linker group, followed by backbone hydrogenation to provide a new class of AEMs with a polyethylene-like framework and alkaline-stable cobaltocenium cation for ion transport, which exhibit excellent thermal, chemical and mechanical stability, as well as high ion conductivity.

Cations are crucial components in emerging functional polyelectrolytes for a myriad of applications. Rapid development in this area necessitates the exploration of new cations with advanced properties. Herein we describe a combination of computational and experimental design of cobaltocene metallo-cations that have distinct electronic and redox properties. One of the direct outcomes on the first synthesis of a complete set of cation derivatives is to discover highly stable cations, which are further integrated to construct metallo-polyelectrolytes as anion-exchange membranes in solid-state alkaline fuel cells. The device performance of these polyelectrolytes under highly basic and oxidative environments is competitive with many organo-polyelectrolytes.
