Problems solved by technology

[0004] Due to the limitations of electrospun nanofibers in the membrane structure, the electrospun nanofiber composite membrane prepared by solution impregnation method is likely to cause incomplete filling of the film-forming matrix in the fiber gap, and the surface on both sides of the composite membrane is inevitably formed without The "transfer barrier layer" of nanofibers and weak proton conductivity, thus affecting the proton conductivity of the proton exchange membrane

preparation example Construction

[0026] A cellulose nanofiber / sulfonated polyethersulfone proton exchange membrane and a preparation method thereof, characterized in that it comprises the following steps:

[0027] S1 uses cellulose acetate as a raw material, and prepares cellulose acetate nanofibers by solution jet spinning, and the fiber diameter distribution is about 50-1100nm;

[0028] S2 is hydrolyzed in sodium hydroxide alcoholic solution to obtain cellulose nanofibers;

[0029] S3 dissolving the sulfonated polyethersulfone particles in the solvent N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) to prepare a casting solution with a molecular weight of 30000-60000 and a sulfonation degree of 60-80%;

[0030] S4 immersing the cellulose nanofibers into a sulfonated polyethersulfone solution by a solution impregnation method to prepare a cellulose nanofiber / sulfonated polyethersulfone proton exchange membrane.

[0031] The invention uses cellulose acetate as a raw material and adopts a solution jet spinning method to prepare c...

Embodiment 1

[0045] With acetone and N, N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) as spinning solvent, cellulose acetate was dissolved in the spinning solution to prepare a solution with a mass concentration of cellulose acetate of 17%; The spinning solution is fed into the spinneret liquid reservoir through the metering pump at a speed of / h. When the spinning solution is extruded from the spinneret, a thin stream is formed, and the thin stream passes through the high-pressure drafting airflow (pressure is 0.05MPa). After drafting and refining, it enters the spinning box (box temperature is 25°C), under the joint action of high-pressure airflow and spinning box, the solvent volatilizes to form fibers, and the fibers are collected on the receiving net curtain by the fan (the receiving distance is 40cm), obtain cellulose acetate nanofibers, control the thickness of cellulose acetate nanofibers to be 40 μm;

[0046] The sulfonated polyethersulfone microspheres were dissolved in N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) ...

Embodiment 2

[0051] Only the quality of the cellulose nanofibers was improved during the impregnation process, and other conditions were completely the same as in Example 1 to obtain a cellulose nanofiber / sulfonated polyethersulfone proton exchange membrane.

[0052] The mass of the cellulose nanofibers is 3% of the mass of the proton exchange membrane to obtain a cellulose nanofiber / sulfonated polyethersulfone proton exchange membrane (SPES / Cell-3) with a thickness of 104 μm.

[0053] The proton exchange membrane is brittle, and the cross-section of the proton exchange membrane is observed with a scanning electron microscope. The observation results are as follows figure 2 shown, according to figure 2 It can be seen that the observation results are similar to Example 1.

Abstract

The invention provides a cellulose nanofiber / sulfonated polyether sulfone proton exchange membrane and a preparation method. According to the proton exchange membrane material, sulfonated polyether sulfone is adopted as a substrate material, a cellulose nanofiber is prepared by adopting an electrostatic auxiliary solution ejection spinning method, the cellulose nanofiber is embedded into the substrate material, and thus a composite membrane can be prepared. To overcome the defects that a sulfonated non-fluorocarbon polymer is too high in sulfonation degree, high in swelling ratio and relatively poor in stability, the cellulose nanofiber is introduced to increase the proton conductivity of a sulfonated polyether sulfone membrane material, and the composite membrane also has certain mechanical strength and good alcohol rejecting performance; due to adoption of hydroxyl as a hydrophilic group, the hydrophilicity of the membrane is further improved; due to adoption of a great number of sulfonic acid groups, the proton transmission capability of the proton exchange membrane can be also ensured. The proton conductivity of the proton exchange membrane provided by the invention is 0.06-0.13S / cm at 80 DEG C, and the thickness of the proton exchange membrane is 85-120 microns.
