Characterization of recycled perfluorosulfonic acid membrane for a circular hydrogen economy
Proton exchange membranes (PEM) are essential components of devices, where is required to transport H+ while blocking the flow of other ions and molecules used as reactants. They are typically ionomeric materials with the most common being perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) polymers known by the trade name NafionŽ. Fuel cell lifetime is, however, curtailed by chemical and physical degradation; furthermore, with increased adoption of sustainable energy technologies, increased demand for PFSAs is forecast. All that translates into the necessity to recycle membrane components. Here we intend to study the structure of recycled Nafion and tested against the pure recast and degrade Nafion.
