Abstract
Selemion AMV was studied to examine the relationship between the membrane chemical structure and its properties. The structure of AMV consists of two components: a functionalized polystyrene copolymer containing the ion-exchange moieties and PVC which is likely blended with copolymer. The PVC is primarily responsible for the mechanical properties of the membrane but seems to undergo degradation during the anion-exchange process that leads to a reduction of the storage modulus. The functionalized polystyrene copolymer with the ion-exchange groups is primarily responsible for the electrical properties of the membrane. The AMV and AMVOH membranes exhibited conductivities of 2 and 7 mS cm–1 at 25 °C, respectively. The membrane exhibited Arrhenius behavior in all conditions that suggests the dynamics of the membrane are not significantly involved in the mechanism of long-range conduction. The AMVOH membrane has two predominant pathways of charge exchange through the membrane: one through the bulk of the hydrop...
