    摘要: Methods of manufacturing a film involve providing a coating of an ion-containing polymer or ion-containing polymer precursor and annealing the coating to form a film using microwave radiation. Methods of manufacturing an ion-containing membrane for use in a membrane electrode assembly of a fuel cell involve coating a solution of an ion-containing polymer or ion-containing polymer precursor to form a cast membrane of the membrane electrode assembly, and annealing the cast membrane using microwave radiation. The cast membrane may comprise a PEM, for example, which may be incorporated in a fuel cell assembly.
