The invention relates to a method for producing aqueous, hydrous and non-aqueous solutions of polymers that are functionalized by acid groups. The method is characterized in that the heat needed to produce the solution is supplied by microwave radiation. These solutions can be used as a starting material for the production of gas diffusion electrodes, fuel cells and platinum nanoparticles stabilized by polymer-electrolytes.

The invention relates to soluble nanoparticles having a diameter of 0.5 to 3 nm, preferably of 1 to 2 nm, containing the platinum alone or platinum and other metals of the platinum group. The nanoparticles are embedded in a protective colloid containing polymeric betaine which can be degraded by hydrolysis. The betaine is preferably a carbobetaine of formula -N?+R1R2-(-CH¿2-)n-CO2-, a phosphobetaine of formula -N+R1R2-(-CH2-)n-PO3- or, preferably a sulfobetaine of formula -N+R1R2-(-CH2-)n-SO3-, whereby R?1 and R2¿, independent of one another, can be the same or different, and represent alkyl radicals of 1 to 6 carbon atoms, and n represents 1, 2, or 3. In addition, the invention relates to a method for producing the nanoparticles and catalysts produced therefrom as well as to their utilization for fuel cells.
摘要:
The invention relates to a method for sulfonating aromatic polymers in a gentle manner. The inventive method comprises the following steps: a) dissolving the aromatic polymer in a substantially water-free acid selected from the group consisting of concentrated sulfuric acid, chlorosulfuric acid or oleum, b) adding an organic solvent that is inert under the reaction conditions, c) adding an anhydride of a carboxylic acid, d) adding a sulfonating agent, and e) carrying out the sulfonation at a temperature below 25 °C and for a period sufficient to obtain the desired degree of sulfonation. The homogeneous process products obtained can be preferably used in the production of membranes, for example for fuel cell applications.
