Effect of Increased Ionic Liquid Uptake Via Thermal Annealing on Mechanical Properties of Polyimide-Poly(ethylene glycol) Segmented Block Copolymer Membranes
Proton exchange membranes (PEMs) suffer performance degradation under certain conditions—temperatures greater than 80 °C, relative humidity less than 50%, and water retention less than 22%. Novel materials are needed that have improved water retention, stability at higher temperatures, flexibility,...
