Poly(alkylene biguanides) as Proton Conductors for High-Temperature PEMFCs

Poly(alkylene biguanides) are novel high‐temperature proton conductors. This long‐known class of polymers is presented as surprisingly stable high‐temperature proton‐conducting materials in the form of water‐free HCl conjugates. Proton conductivity is dominated by free volume relaxation. Application...

Zusammenfassung:Poly(alkylene biguanides) are novel high‐temperature proton conductors. This long‐known class of polymers is presented as surprisingly stable high‐temperature proton‐conducting materials in the form of water‐free HCl conjugates. Proton conductivity is dominated by free volume relaxation. Application in the context of fuel‐cell membranes is discussed.
