AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

Perfluorosulfonic acid proton exchange membranes have difficulty conducting protons above 100°C, while phosphate-doped membranes have difficulty conducting protons below 100°C.

Method used

A hydrolysate composed of an alkaline hydrolysis catalyst and a polar organic solution is used to hydrolyze perfluorinated ion exchange resin at a certain temperature and time. By adjusting the process, the hydrolysis of phosphate ester, sulfonyl fluoride and/or carboxylic acid ester groups is achieved, avoiding the breaking of CP bonds, thus preparing a perfluorinated ion exchange resin containing phosphoric acid, sulfonic acid and/or carboxylic acid.

Benefits of technology

A perfluorinated ion exchange resin with ion exchange function was prepared by effectively hydrolyzing phosphate groups under alkaline conditions, while simultaneously promoting the rapid hydrolysis of sulfonyl fluoride and carboxylic acid esters. This resin is suitable for high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells.

Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to a preparation method of fluoropolymer materials, and particularly relates to an ionization process of perfluorinated ion exchange resin and application thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] Perfluorosulfonic acid ion exchange resin is applied in proton exchange membrane fuel cell due to its special properties, and at present, the working temperature range of fuel cell membrane electrode with perfluorosulfonic acid resin as a key raw material is only 25-80℃, and the lower use temperature range will result in the catalyst layer of the membrane electrode being poisoned in the environment with 10ppm of CO. In order to solve the existing difficulties of the fuel cell membrane electrode, an effective solution is to improve the use temperature of the fuel cell, and therefore, the development of high-temperature proton exchange membrane has become the research focus at home and abroad. A series of research results have been obtained for the problem that the fuel cell is difficult to operate stably above 100℃.

[0003] At present, the research mainly focuses on phosphoric acid doped polymer proton membrane and its fuel cell system, and although this kind of membrane has a simple preparation process and strong high-temperature proton conduction capacity, the phosphoric acid is easy to migrate and separate out, which results in the serious decline of the mechanical properties and chemical properties of the proton membrane, and also cannot meet the actual use demand of the fuel cell. Due to the limitation of the proton conduction and physical and chemical properties of sulfonic acid and phosphoric acid groups, the perfluorosulfonic acid proton membrane is difficult to conduct protons above 100℃, and the phosphoric acid doped membrane is difficult to conduct protons below 100℃, and therefore, the polymer and membrane containing phosphoric acid-sulfonic acid structure can greatly widen the working temperature range of the fuel cell membrane to above 120℃, and break through the low bottleneck of the current fuel cell cross-temperature zone work.

[0004] There are few studies on fluorine-containing polymers containing phosphonic-sulfonic structures, which are basically at the exploratory stage. Currently, the only information available is on binary polymers of perfluorophosphate ester and tetrafluoroethylene, and the related research is more on the polymerization method and the application of resin structure testing. The article Yamabe, Masaaki et al. "Novel phosphonated perfluorocarbon polymers." European Polymer Journal 36 (2000): 1035-1041 introduces that when the perfluorophosphate ester polymer is treated with lye, the CF2-P bond will be completely broken, and the hydrolysis method with acid solution can convert the phosphate ester polymer into phosphoric acid, while the common hydrolysis method of perfluorosulfonyl fluoride resin is to treat it with 5-50% lye to form sulfonate and then perform acidification treatment. The sulfonyl fluoride-SO2F group of perfluorosulfonyl fluoride resin is very stable in acid solution. The perfluoro ion exchange resin precursor containing phosphate and sulfonyl fluoride groups only has ion or proton exchange function after being hydrolyzed into phosphoric acid and sulfonic acid, and can be applied in fuel cell membranes. However, due to the decomposition of perfluorophosphate ester polymer in lye, it is difficult to ionize the perfluoro ion exchange resin precursor containing phosphate and sulfonyl fluoride groups. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the problem that the ionization of the fluorine-containing ion exchange resin containing phosphate ester in lye will cause decomposition, the application provides an ionization process for perfluoro ion exchange resin, which uses a strong alkaline substance and a solution containing a polar organic solvent as a hydrolysis solution, adjusts the ionization process, realizes the hydrolysis of phosphate ester groups in lye, and does not damage the C-P bond in phosphate ester, and realizes the hydrolysis of phosphate ester, sulfonyl fluoride and / or carboxylate groups at the same time, and simplifies the process.

[0139] (3) After the constant temperature timer was stopped, the reactor was cooled to 25°C, and then the reactor was opened. The solution in the reactor was filtered through a 2-μm PP membrane.

[0140] (4) After the filtered fluorine-containing ion exchange resin was replaced 10 times in a 10wt% sulfuric acid solution at 65°C, the acidification was completed when the lithium ion content in the resin was less than 15 ppm, to obtain a fluorine-containing ion exchange resin containing phosphoric acid and sulfonic acid.

[0141] Comparative Example 1

[0142] The hydrolysis solution used in this comparative example was a 20wt% KOH aqueous solution containing 5wt% methanol. After treatment at 85°C for 72 h, the sample was tested by nuclear magnetic phosphorus spectrum. As shown in Figure 5 acidification was performed using 12wt% hydrochloric acid, deionized water was used for washing, and drying was performed to obtain a perfluorinated ion exchange resin. The remaining steps were the same as in Example 1.

[0143] From Figure 5 it can be seen that the same concentration of perfluorinated ion exchange resin solution was tested by nuclear magnetic phosphorus spectrum, and the phosphorus signal peak near 0 ppm was greatly weakened, indicating that a large number of C-P bonds were broken. This is because: in order to rapidly hydrolyze the sulfonyl fluoride group and increase the alkaline solution concentration, thereby breaking the C-P bond. In this comparative example, due to the low content of methanol, the C-P bond cannot be effectively protected, resulting in a large number of C-P bond breakage.

[0144] Comparative Example 2

[0145] The hydrolysis solution used in this comparative example was a 20wt% LiOH aqueous solution. After treatment at 200°C for 6 h, the sample was tested by nuclear magnetic phosphorus spectrum. As shown in Figure 6 acidification was performed using 10wt% nitric acid, deionized water was used for washing, and drying was performed to obtain a perfluorinated ion exchange resin. The remaining steps were the same as in Example 1.

[0146] From Figure 6As can be seen from the NMR phosphorus spectrum of the perfluorinated ion exchange resin solution of the same concentration, the phosphorus signal peak near 0 ppm disappears, indicating that the CP bond in the resin has been completely broken. This is because the lithium hydroxide content in this comparative example is too high in order to hydrolyze the sulfonyl fluoride group, which promotes the breaking of CP.

[0147] Table 1 shows the ion exchange capacity of each embodiment and comparative example. The ion exchange capacity was tested according to GB / T30296 2013. As shown in Table 1, the ion exchange capacity of each embodiment and comparative example before and after ionization treatment are respectively. It can be seen from the table that the ion exchange capacity of the present invention is slightly reduced, while the ionization method of the comparative example has a significantly reduced exchange capacity. However, there is still an exchange capacity of about 0.45 mmol / g, which mainly comes from the sulfonic acid group. The phosphate group in the comparative example is basically completely decomposed.
