POLY(ARYLENE)-BASED ANION EXCHANGE POLYMER ELECTROLYTES

This technology relates to anion exchange membranes with enhanced stability to high pH environments including poly(arylene sulfone) or poly(arylene ketone) with anion exchange groups. Membranes according to this technology are simple to produce and have good mechanical properties, improved alkaline stability, as well as good anionic conductivity. This technology is particularly effective in fuel cell applications.
