Developing high-performance and low-cost high temperature polymer exchange membranes (HT-PEMs) is a huge challenge to fuel cells. Here, two poly(arylene pyridine)s (PTAP and PBAP) are synthesized through a simple one-step Friedel-Crafts polymerization of 4-acetylpyridine and para-terphenyl/biphenyl. Both PTAP and PBAP exhibit superior organic solubility and excellent thermal stability. Owing to pyridine groups, PBAP and PTAP membranes display excellent phosphoric acid (PA) absorption capability. The PTAP membrane achieves a PA uptake of 220% after immersing in 85 wt% PA solution at 100 °C, and a high conductivity of 0.102 S cm-1 at 180 °C. Specially, PBAP and PTAP also possess remarkable chem. stability. After 450 h Fenton test, the PTAP membrane still exhibits a high PA uptake of 200% and high conductivity of 0.086 S cm-1. A single H2-O2 cell based on the PTAP/220% membrane shows a peak power d. of 743 mW cm-2 at 180 °C without any back pressure, which also displays excellent durability under 200 mA cm-2 and 400 mA cm-2 at 160 °C. Thus, this work develops a facile, cost effective and up-scalable synthetic route of alternative HT-PEM under mild conditions, comparing with the state-of-the-art polybenzimidazole (PBI) membrane.4-Acetylpyridine(cas: 1122-54-9Synthetic Route of C7H7NO) was used in this study.
4-Acetylpyridine(cas: 1122-54-9) belongs to pyridine. Pyridine derivatives lend themselves to many roles in the spirited field of supramolecular chemistry – whether as the ligand backbone of metal-organic polymers or presiding over the key electronic stations of nanodevices. In biochemistry, pyridine-containing cofactors are necessary nutrients on which our lives depend. Synthetic Route of C7H7NO
