1H–1H Double Quantum NMR Investigation of Proton Dynamics in Solid Acids
Abstract
Currently, the most popular proton exchange membrane (PEM) for fuel cell applications is Nafion. However, Nafion does not retain its high conductivity at high temperatures due to its dependence on water for proton transport. Because operational temperatures higher than the evaporation point of water are desirable, a family of solid acids was investigated. Cations known to transport protons were paired with anions to make acidic salts. Solid …
