Zusammenfassung:A method (500) for conditioning or hydrolysis of an extruded membrane is disclosed. The method (500) comprising ion exchange processes in divided electrochemical cells using a cation exchanger membrane. The method (500) includes extruding the perfluorosulfonyl fluoride membranes from perfluorosulfonyl fluoride granulate. The method (500) also includes using a pretreatment technique to increase the ionic conductivity of the extruded perfluorosulfonyl fluoride membranes before using the perfluorosulfonic acid membranes in electrolysis cells. The method (500) also includes applying a milder pretreatment technique by activating S-F bonds to execute nucleophilic exchange of the fluoride group in a reaction. The method (500) also includes hydrolyzing sulfonyl fluoride groups to sulfonic acid using triethylsilanol.
