Abstract

The modification of Nafion® membranes with poly(diallyldimethylammonium chloride) (PDDA) in aqueous solutions of isopropanol has been investigated. A remarkable decrease in vanadyl ion permeability (by 3.5 orders of magnitude), accompanied by a decrease in proton conductivity sixfold at most, was found for Nafion membranes modified in 30–35 wt% isopropanol solutions providing a high swelling of the membranes. The Bradford reagent has been used for the detection of PDDA on the membrane surface.
