Abstract
In this study to investigate the Polymer Electrolyte Membrane or Proton Exchange Membrane (PEM) that were synthesized by using acrilonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS). In order to enhance ability as a proton conductive polymer membrane as electrolyte, amorphous and crystalline silica ( 3 % and 5 %) were added to the initial mixture of ABS to inhibit relatively high proton conductivity. The structural and morphological characterization of samples was done by X-ray powder diffractometer, FTIR and scanning electron microscopy. Electrical properties were determined by LCR-meter (HIOKI 3522-50LCR HiTESTER). The structure analysis shows that the ABS amorphous phase with the unsmoth surface. The electrical conductivity of Polymer Electrolyte Membrane is 4,21 x10-3 S/cm of ABS with 5 % amorphous silica.
Highlights
World energy consumption levels are increasing while energy sources, especially energy derived from fossils, are increasingly depleting their existence [1–12]
This is a challenge for the research team to develop the process of making Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) based on acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) mixed with silica and carbon material by using spin casting system (SC) method to get membrane with uniform thickness which has efficiency high and has a high corrosion resistance and chemical and physical stability and density and shape that can be adjusted so that the application of this fuel cell can be used as a new alternative energy source that is really promising
The material to be used for making Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) is acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS) or composite, this is because graphite has some superior properties including corrosion resistance, low weight, low contact resistance, stable both physically and chemically compared to metal [16]
Summary
World energy consumption levels are increasing while energy sources, especially energy derived from fossils, are increasingly depleting their existence [1–12]. One of the components in the fuel cell is the electrolyte membrane which is the primary key in this technology This is a challenge for the research team to develop the process of making Polymer Electrolyte Membrane Fuel Cell (PEMFC) based on ABS mixed with silica and carbon material by using spin casting system (SC) method to get membrane with uniform thickness which has efficiency high and has a high corrosion resistance and chemical and physical stability and density and shape that can be adjusted so that the application of this fuel cell can be used as a new alternative energy source that is really promising.
