4 FAQs about Characteristics of perfluorosulfonic acid ion exchange in flow batteries

Can perfluorosulfonic acid be used in proton exchange membrane fuel cells?

Investigations of Dongyue Series Perfluorosulfonic Acid Membranes for Applications in Proton Exchange Membrane Fuel Cells (PEMFCs).

Are perfluorosulfonic membranes suitable for vanadium redox flow batteries?

A series of perfluorosulfonic membranes is screened for application in vanadium redox flow batteries (VRFB): membranes of constant thickness 50 µm with different ion-exchange capacities ranging from 0.56 to 1.15 mol eq. g −1.

What is a perfluorosulfonic acid membrane?

The perfluorosulfonic acid family of membranes includes a range of products from different manufacturers, under trade names of Nafion™ (DuPont), Flemion™ (Asahi Glass) and Hyflon™ (Solvay-Solexis) and Aquivion™ (Solvay), using, for example, different side chains. Such materials are often referred to as ionomer membranes.

Why are perfluorosulfonic acid membranes not suitable for high-temperature operation?

Besides the limited thermal stability of perfluorosulfonic acid polymers itself, as a result of too low glass transition temperature, the limitations of the most widely used membranes with respect to high-temperature operation are primarily set by the dependence on water for proton mobility.
