Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) composite including tungstophosphoric acid(TPA) membranes have been intensively investigated for polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE) and thus covalently linked sulfonated polyether ether ketone (CL-SPEEK) with captured TPA composite membranes were prepared and characterized. Sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) was prepared in sulfonation of PEEK and was cross-linked with 1,4 diiodobutane. The carbonyl group of SPEEK was reduced with $NaBH_4$ and 3-isocyanatepropyltriethoxysilane (ICPTES) was added. The TPA captured composite was prepared in reaction of TPA with 3-mercaptopropyltrime thoxysilane (MPTMS). The polymer composite membranes showed better thermostability and electrochemical properties than SPEEK. The membranes were prepared by sol-gel casting method. The polymer composite membrane featured 0.1285 S/cm of proton conductivity at $80^{\circ}C$ and outstanding durability.

Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) composite membranes have been intensively investigated for polymer electrolyte membrane water electrolysis (PEMWE). Covalently linked (CL) sulfonated polyether ether ketone (SPEEK) and cellulose polymer composite membranes were prepared and characterized. Polyether ether ketone (PEEK) and cellulose were sulfonated and then were covalently linked by 1,4-diiodobutane to produce covalently linked SPEEK and cellulose polymer composite membranes. The composite membranes showed better thermostability and electrochemical properties than SPEEK. The membranes were prepared by sol-gel casting method. CL-SPEEK/Cellulose composite membrane featured 0.2453 S/cm of proton conductivity at $80^{\circ}C$ which was better than that of Nafion.

본 연구에서는 고온에서 우수한 전도성을 가지는 전해질막의 개발을 위하여 신규한 실란계 무기물을 합성하였으며, 이를 이용하여 제조된 분리막의 특성평가가 진행되었다. 탄화수소계열 고분자인 SPAES를 합성하여 고분자 물질로 사용하였으며, 높은 이온전도성을 가지는 무기물의 제조를 위하여 silica, phosphate, zironium계 물질을 졸겔법을 이용하여 복합화 시켰다. 각 조성의 몰비를 조절하여 세 가지 종류의 무기물을 제조하였으며 조성에 따른 물성변화를 관찰하였다. EDX 분석결과 제조된 무기물은 고분자 분리막 내에 고르게 분산이 되는 것을 확인하였다. 친수성을 가지는 무기물의 도입을 통하여 분리막 내에 이온을 전달할 수 있는 수분채널이 형성되어 함수율이 증가가 됨을 확인하였다. 또한 zirconium계 무기물의 함량이 높을수록 고온에서 전도도가 향상되는 결과를 확인하였으며 복합화된 실리카는 저온 가습조건에서 이온전도도가 향상되는 결과를 나타내었다.

본 연구는 연료전지용 고분자 전해질 막의 성능 향상에 관한 것으로서 연료전지를 구동하기 위해 요구되는 전해질 막의 특성에 대하여 연구하였다. Bis(4-fluorophenyl)phenyl phosphine oxide를 발연 황산을 이용하여 양이온($H^+$)을 전도할 수 있는 술폰산기를 치환시켜 주었다. 친수성 올리고머와 소수성 올리고머를 각각 합성하고, 블록 공중합체는 친수성 올리고머와 소수성 올리고머를 방향족 친핵성 치환반응에 의해 제조하였다. 블록 공중합체의 구조 및 술폰화도(DS)는 $^1H$-NMR, 겔 침투 크로마토그래피 (GPC) 분석에 의해 확인하였다. 열적 안정성은 열중량 분석(TGA)을 통해 확인하였으며, 본 연구에서 제조한 블록 코폴리머는 $200^{\circ}C$ 이상의 온도 조건에서 내열성을 나타내었다. 또한, 이온전도성은 연료전지 전해질 막으로서의 성능을 증명하기 위해 이온전도도 시험을 수행하였다. 제조한 막은 온도가 증가할수록 발달된 이온클러스터의 영향으로 최대 58 mS/cm의 이온전도성을 보였다. 블록 코폴리머의 미세 상 분리의 특성은 AFM분석을 통해 확인하였다.

원자전달 라디칼 중합을 이용하여 poly(styrene sulfonic acid) 47 wt%를 가진 poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-chlorotrifluoroethylene)-g-poly(styrene sulfonic acid) (P(VDF-co-CTFE)-g-PSSA) 가지형 공중합체를 합성하였다. 티타늄 아이소프로폭사이드(TTIP)와 가지형 공중합체를 졸-겔 공정을 통하여 $TiO_2$/가지형 공중합체 복합막을 제조하였다. TTIP는 가지형 공중합체의 친수성을 가진 PSSA 영역에만 선택적으로 결합하였으며 그곳에 $TiO_2$ 나노 입자가 형성되어 성장하였다. 이와 같은 결과를 적외선과 자외선 분광학으로 확인할 수 있다. 함수량과 이온 교환 능력 (IEC)는 TTIP의 함량에 따라 감소하였고 이것은 막이 가진 술폰산의 수가 감소하기 때문이었다. TTIP가 5 중량%일 때, 막의 기계적 강도는 증가하고 수소이온 전도도도 유지되었다.

Novel bisphenol-based wholly aromatic poly(ether sulfone-ketone) copolymer containing pendant sulfonate groups were prepared by direct aromatic nucleophilic substitution polycondensation of 4,4-difluorobenzophenone, 2,2'-disodiumsulfonyl-4,4'-fluorophenylsulfone (40mole% of bisphenol A) and bisphenol A. Polymerization proceeded quantitatively to high molecular weight in N-methyl-2-pyrrolidinone at $180^{\circ}C$. Organic-inorganic composite membranes were obtained by mixing organic polymers with hydrophilic $SiO_2$ (ca. 20nm) obtained by sol-gel process. The polymer and a series of composite membranes were studied by FT-IR, $^1HNMR$, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermal stability. The proton conductivity as a function of temperature decreased as $SiO_2$ content increased, but methanol permeability decreased. The nano composite membranes were found to posse all requisite properties; Ion exchange capacity (1.2meq./g), glass transition temperatures $(164-183\;^{\circ}C)$, and low affinity towards methanol $(4.63-1.08{\times}10^{-7}\;cm^2/S)$.

An electrochromic(EC) cell was constructed using $WO_3$ as a electrochromic material and NiO as a counter electrode, deposited onto ITO-coated glass by the implementation of electron beam evaporation. The electrolytic media were both lithium and proton conducting polymers such as poly-acrylonitrile(PAN)-$LiClO_4$, poly-ethylene oxide(PEO)-$LiClO_4$, poly-vinyl butyral(PVB)-LiCl and PVB-H$_3$$PO_4$. Potentiodynamic cycling of the cells using PAN-$LiClO_4$, or PVB-$H_3$$PO_4$ electrolyte yielded a transmission variation of more than 40% at the wavelength of 632.8 nm within less than 10 sec response time at room temperature. These results indicate that these electrolytes, transparent in gel type, are premising for the application in large area electrochromic windows.

본 연구에서는 trimethylolpropane triacrylate(TMPTA)를 사용한 겔폴리머전해질의 전기화학적 특성에 대하여 조사하였다. 겔고분자전해질의 상온 이온전도도는 약 $5.0{\times}10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}$이었으며, 온도가 높아짐에 따라 이온전도도는 증가하였다. TMPTA계 겔고분자전해질은 4.5V(vs. $Li/Li^+$)까지의 전위영역에서 우수한 전기화학적 안정성을 나타내었으며, TMPTA계 겔고분자전해질을 적용한 리튬이온폴리머전지의 고율 및 저온 방전특성은 양호하였다. 또한 사이클수명도 200 사이클이 진행된 후에도 초기용량의 약 94%라는 높은 용량유지율을 나타내었다.

Electronic skin (or E-skin) is an artificial smart skin composed of one or more than two sensors. E-skins detect external stimuli and convert them into electrical signals. Various types of E-skin sensors exist, including mechanical, physical, and chemical, depending on the detection signals involved. For wearable E-skins with superior sensitivity and reliability, developing conductors that possess both good elasticity and sensitivity is essential. Typical electrical conductors used in these sensors show very high sensitivity, but they have drawbacks such as non-linearity, irreversibility, and a narrow sensing range. To address these issues, stretchable and lightweight ionic conductors have been actively used in E-skin applications. This study summarizes the recent progress on various types of ionic conductors and ionic-conductor-based E-skin sensors.

Electrochemical double layer capacitors (EDLCs) have received a tremendous interest due to their suitability for diverse applications. They have been fabricated using different carbon based electrodes including activated carbons, single walled/multi walled carbon nano tubes. But, graphite which is one of the natural resources in Sri Lanka has not been given a considerable attention towards using for EDLCs though it is a famous carbon material. On the other hand, EDLCs are well reported with various liquid electrolytes which are associated with numerous drawbacks. Gel polymer electrolytes (GPE) are well known alternative for liquid electrolytes. In this paper, it is reported about an EDLC fabricated with a nano composite polyethylene oxide based GPE and two Sri Lankan graphite based electrodes. The composition of the GPE was [{(10PEO: $NaClO_4$) molar ratio}: 75wt.% PC] : 5 wt.% $TiO_2$. GPE was prepared using the solvent casting method. Two graphite electrodes were prepared by mixing 85% graphite and 15% polyvinylidenefluoride (PVdF) in acetone and casting n fluorine doped tin oxide glass plates. GPE film was sandwiched in between the two graphite electrodes. A non faradaic charge discharge mechanism was observed from the Cyclic Voltammetry study. GPE was stable in the potential windows from (-0.8 V-0.8 V) to (-1.5 V-1.5 V). By increasing the width of the potential window, single electrode specific capacity increased. Impedance plots confirmed the capacitive behavior at low frequency region. Galvanostatic charge discharge test yielded an average discharge capacity of $0.60Fg^{-1}$.
