Anhydrous Proton Conductivity of Phosphoric Acid-Doped PVDF- co -HFP/PVP Blended Polymer Membranes with Nano-SiO2 and s-SiO2 Particles
In this work, a novel proton exchange membrane (PEM) working in anhydrous conditions was successfully fabricated from a 50:50 blend of polyvinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVDF-co-HFP) and polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) via solution casting. Proton conductivity was enabled through hydrogen-bonding interactions...
