Abstract
Phosphotungstic acid (HPW) can retain water in proton exchange membranes to increase proton conductivity; however, its water-soluble nature limits further application. In this work, we combined HPW and graphitic carbon nitride (g-C3N4) via sintering to prepare water-insoluble hybrids (HWN), where HPW was chemically linked to g-C3N4 to fix HPW. Then, HWN fillers were added to a sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) matrix to prepare composite membranes. The conductivity of the composite membrane with 10 wt% HWN is up to 0.066 S cm-1 at room temperature, which is 53% higher than that of the SPEEK control membrane (0.043 S cm-1). The composite membrane also showed stable proton conductivity after being immersed in water for 2000 h. Therefore, our study demonstrates that preparing water-insoluble nanofillers containing HPW components through sintering is a promising approach.
磷钨酸（HPW）可以在质子交换膜中保留水分，从而提高质子传导性；然而，其水溶性限制了进一步的应用。在这项工作中，我们通过烧结将磷钨酸和石墨氮化碳（g-C3N4）结合起来，制备了水不溶性杂化物（HWN），其中磷钨酸与 g-C3N4 通过化学连接固定了磷钨酸。然后，将 HWN 填料添加到磺化聚醚醚酮（SPEEK）基质中，制备出复合膜。含有 10 wt% HWN 的复合膜在室温下的电导率高达 0.066 S cm-1，比 SPEEK 对照膜（0.043 S cm-1）高出 53%。因此，我们的研究表明，通过烧结制备含有 HPW 成分的水不溶性纳米填料是一种很有前景的方法。
