Abstract
There is still a need for the further development of membrane materials for the direct methanol
cell (DMFC). Existing materials properties can be improved by addition of inorganic fillers. In this paper the applicability of microwave processing was examined for its use for in-situ synthesis of inorganic filler materials in Nafion membranes. For a better understanding of the processes occuring during the exposure to microwave frequency radiation the dielectric properties of Nafion were examined under different conditions of temperature, humidity and filler material. Titanium butylate was used as precursor for titania. The inverse micelle structural model of Nafion was applied to explain the experimental results. Two different reaction routes hydrolysis and pyrolysis were carried out, respectively. The hybrid membranes were characterised by their Xray diffraction patterns, and in case of the hydrolysis reaction route the effective diffusion coefficient and the conductivity as a function of humidity was measured and compared to the parent material. At 100 °C in water saturated air the conductivity of Nafion 117 and a Nafion-TiO2 (23 wt%) hybrid membrane were 0.1 Ω-1cm-1 diffusion coefficients measured at 20 °C were 2.0⋅10-10 m2s-1 and 4.2⋅10-11 m2s-1, respectively. The results seem to be promising for further tests in a single DMFC.
