Polymers, polymer precursors, and other materials are described, having at least one heterocycle and being useful for fabrication of proton-exchange membranes (PEMs). In representative examples, the heterocycle is a fluorinated imidazole ring. The heterocycle can be chosen to have a low value of pKa, and may be a triazole ring, other nitrogen-containing heterocycle, or derivative thereof. Polymers and composites were prepared having excellent proton conductivity. Applications of these materials include fuel cells and other ion-conducting applications.
本文描述了至少含有一个杂环的聚合物、聚合物前体和其他材料,可用于制造质子交换膜(PEMs)。在代表性示例中,杂环是一种氟代咪唑环。可以选择具有低pKa值的杂环,并且可能是三唑环、其他含氮杂环或其衍生物。制备了具有优异质子传导性的聚合物和复合材料。这些材料的应用包括燃料电池和其他离子导电应用。
