Fabrication and characterization of PVA/NNSA/GLA/nano-silica proton conducting composite membranes for DMFC applications

Blends of PVA and 2-nitroso-1-naphtol-4-sulfonic acid (NNSA) ranging from 10 to 40 wt% were crosslinked in the presence of glutaraldehyde (GLA) to produce hybrid membranes. The structure and morphology of the hybrid membranes were studied by XRD, FE-SEM, EDX, and elemental mapping experiments. The m...
