Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of fuel cells and hydrogen production by water electrolysis, and relates to a side-chain quinuclidine-based polymer, a preparation method and application of the side-chain quinuclidine-based polymer in preparation of an anion exchange membrane. TECHNICAL BACKGROUND
[0002] At present, over-reliance on and exploitation of fossil energy result in a series of problems such as environmental pollution, energy shortage and greenhouse effect, and the global community urgently needs to develop green and clean renewable hydrogen energy to replace fossil fuels, among which, hydrogen production by water electrolysis and fuel cell technology have great development prospects as hydrogen energy conversion technology. As one of the key components of hydrogen production by water electrolysis and fuel cell technology, an anion exchange membrane can separate cathode and anode, transport ions, carry catalysts and prevent fuel leakage, and plays an important role in long-term stable operation of hydrogen production by water electrolysis and fuel cells. However, in order to meet the actual application of commercialization, the anion exchange membrane still has shortcomings such as poor stability and low conductivity, and researchers continue to conduct a large amount of scientific research to improve its conductivity and long-term stability in alkaline conditions.
[0003] Firstly, different polymer backbones are studied, including poly (arylene ether), poly (norbornene), poly (benzimidazole) and ether-free aromatic hydrocarbon polymer, etc. Among them, ether-containing polymers are easily eroded and degraded by the original nucleus of hydroxide, resulting in poor durability and dimensional stability; in contrast, all-carbon polymer backbones are gradually replacing ether-containing polymers due to their good alkali resistance, chemical stability and mechanical strength. Secondly, various ion transport groups are introduced into the polymer backbone or side chain, aiming to improve the ion transport performance and alkali resistance of the anion exchange membrane, among which, quinuclidine exhibits excellent alkali resistance in the form of a rigid bicyclic cation similar to a sphere, has a low ring strain and a constrained conformation, and is not prone to degradation reaction in high-concentration alkali solution, so quinuclidine-based polymers have excellent alkali resistance as a new type of anion exchange membrane material. However, as of now, the ion transport performance of quinuclidine-based anion exchange membranes has not been fully tapped, and it is still difficult to meet the requirements of commercial application.
