A Polymer Membrane for Water Electrolysis in Alkaline Solutions
Asian Journal of Chemistry,
Vol. 26 No. 2 (2014): Vol 26 Issue 2
Abstract
A kind of linear polymer containing crown ether group was synthesized and the membrane was made of the polymer. A special process treatment made the membrane can transport the ion and can be used for the water electrolysis in alkaline solutions. The characterization of the membrane such as the tensile strength test, SEM and XRD was examined and the performance of the electrolysis cell was also tested. The resistance of the membrane is 0.23 W cm2; the cell voltage is lower than 2.0 V (25 ºC, 5 mol/L KOH, 200 mA/cm2).
