A proton-conducting bisphenylpropaned sulfonated fluorinated blockcopolymer (BPSFBC) was synthesized. Five kinds of polymer electrolyted composite membranes were preparated by incorporating silica ($SiO_2$) with various weight ratio. And their characteristics were investigated by FT-IR (fourier transform infrared), $^1H-NMR$ ($^1H$ nuclear magnetic resonance), TGA (thermogravimetric analysis), water uptake, FE-SEM (field emission scanning electron microscopes), and ion conductivity properties. The water uptake and ion conductivity were increased until 9 wt% $SiO_2$, and then decreased. The maximum proton conductivity equal to $52mScm^{-1}$ was measured for the BPSFBC/$SiO_2$-9 composite membrane at $90^{\circ}C$ and 100% relative humidity. From the measured results, it is distinct that the manufactured composite membrane BPSFBC/$SiO_2$-9 can be considered as a polymer membrane suitable for a fuel cell electrolyte.
