Abstract:
This article describes data on preparation of sulfonated hydrogenated poly(phenylnorbornene) with different cations synthesized via sequential ring-opening metathesis polymerization, reduction, homogeneous sulfonation and cation exchange reactions. The data of the characterization of new polymers by nuclear magnetic resonance (1H NMR) spectroscopy, Fourier-transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy and differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) are presented. The effect of imidazolium and 1-methylimidazolium cations, ionic liquid and Zwitter-type ion liquid on ionic conductivities evaluated by impedance spectroscopy. Preparation procedure of polymer electrolyte membrane based on new polymers and Nafion as a blend with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) is given. Scanning electron microscopy images and ionic conductivities of these membrane are presented.
