Problems solved by technology

However, its film-forming method has the following disadvantages: (1) The film-forming conditions are harsh
It needs to be carried out under high pressure and high temperature exceeding 100°C. At this temperature, many highly active groups such as haloalkanes, epoxy groups, acid radicals, etc. will inevitably undergo decomposition, oxidation and ester-forming reactions, making the application range of this process Limited; (2) Long film-forming time, hot-press polymerization time of more than 3 hours, resulting in low production efficiency; (3) Serious pollution, due to the long film-forming time and high temperature of the process, solvents and monomers are easily removed from the system Volatilized in the medium, causing equipment corrosion, air pollution and deterioration of the working environment; (4) Generally, only relatively weak acidic benzenesulfonic acid can be produced

Abstract

The invention provides a method for making a cation exchange membrane through photocuring. The method comprises the following steps: coating a substrate with a slurry containing a polymerizable monomer and a photoinitiator, wherein the polymerizable monomer contains sulfonate ions or a compound containing a functional group which can introduce the sulfonate ions; initiating the polymerization and crosslinking of alkenyl function groups on the monomer in the initiating slurry; and washing, and post-processing to obtain the sulfonic acid type cation exchange membrane with a physical conformation. Compared with present making methods of the cation exchange membrane through a hot pressing polymerization process, the method has the advantages of fast polymerization speed, low polymerization temperature, fast curing time and small pollution, and the obtained cation exchange membrane has the advantages of uniformity, stability, good mechanical properties and good chemical resistance, so the cation exchange membrane has a good application prospect in the fields of electrodialysis water treatment, pervaporation, gas separation, new energy batteries, the atomic energy industry and analysis, catalytic synthesis and the chlorine alkali industry.
