The correlation of sulfonation reaction kinetics with the degree of sulfonation (DS) and its effects on microstructure and morphology of electrospun fibers for the membrane of fuel cells. [PDF]
Sulfonation is among the frequently used surface modification methods to endow new surface properties on polymer fibers. Direct sulfonation is the simplest chemical modification via incorporation of sulfonate functional groups onto fibers' surfaces at ...

There is a strong belief that sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) can be used as an alternative to Nafion membrane in PEMFC applications due to its properties that can vary depending on sulfonation degree (DS). In this study, the temperature of the sulfonation reaction was kept constant at 50 degrees C, and SPEEK membranes were synthesized by ...
