Problems solved by technology

[0013] Therefore, although the various methods proposed in the above-mentioned documents 1 to 8 have effectively reduced the dimensional change rate of the polymer electrolyte membrane after saturated water absorption, they have their own defects: or reduce the ion exchange capacity and proton conductivity, or increase However, the process / raw material cost has not been fundamentally solved the problem of how to reduce the dimensional change rate of the polymer electrolyte membrane simply and easily, and it is impossible to obtain a polymer electrolyte membrane with a dimensional change rate lower than 3%.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of polymer electrolyte membranes, in particular to a polymer electrolyte membrane with a small dimensional change rate after water absorption and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] A polymer electrolyte is a polymer ion conductor containing dissociable ionic groups. Because of its good conductivity and the unique characteristics of light weight, good elasticity and easy film formation of polymers, it has become a hot spot in the research and development of chemical power sources in recent years. At present, polymer electrolytes are mainly used in the fields of lithium-ion batteries or fuel cells and are often used in the form of membranes. For polymer electrolyte membranes, due to the alternating low humidity / high humidity environment during battery operation, the dimensional changes of dehydration / water absorption often occur. In the case of a large dimensional change rate, the polymer elec...
