Abstract
In this study, silane-crosslinked proton exchange membranes were prepared by step-wise radiation grafting of styrene and 3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (TMSPM) onto an poly(ethylene-co-tetrafluoroethylene) (ETFE) film and followed by sol-gel processing and sulfonation. The sequentially grafted films with styrene to provide the proton conductivity and TMSPM to form the crosslinked structure were prepared by different grafting order. The structural changes and thermal properties of the prepared films were investigated by FTIR and TGA, respectively. After the introduction of sulfonic acid functional groups, the distributions of sulfonic acid group and silicon atoms at the inside of the sulfonated membranes were analyzed by SEM-EDX.

본 연구에서는 스티렌(styrene)과 TMSPM(3-(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate) 단량체를 방사선을 이용하여 ETFE(poly(ethylene-co-tetrafluoroethylene)) 필름에 순차적으로 그래프트시킨 후 졸-젤 반응 및 설폰화 반응을 진행하여 실란 가교구조의 수소이온교환막을 제조하였다. 그래프트시 수소이온 전도성을 부여하게 될 스티렌과 가교구조를 형성시킬 TMSPM의 그래프트 순서가 다른 두 종류의 필름을 제조하여 FTIR을 통하여 구조 변화를 비교하였으며, TGA를 이용하여 열적 특성 변화를 관찰하였다. 두 종류의 필름에 설폰산 작용기를 도입한 후 SEM-EDX기기를 이용하여 막 내부 설폰산 및 실리콘의 분포를 확인하였다.

Keywords: PEM; radiation; grafting; ETFE; silane-crosslinking.
