Latest Patents
Peter Po-Jen Chu holds a patent for "Sulfonated polyether ether ketone ketone, film utilizing the same, and method for manufacturing the same." This invention involves a series of crosslinkable sulfonated poly(ether ketone)s containing cycloalkenyl groups synthesized through aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction. To reduce the swelling of fuel cell membranes, crosslinking of these polymers by radical polymerization has been explored. The resulting polymeric films demonstrate excellent thermal and oxidative stability, as well as good dimensional stability in hot water. Notably, the proton conductivity of one example at room temperature is 7.52*10-2 S/cm. The findings indicate that these materials containing cycloalkenyl groups are potential inexpensive candidates for proton exchange membranes in fuel cell applications.
