摘要:
This invention is based on the preparation of new solid acid triphosphates with compositions of the general formula M(IV)(HPO4)(H2PO4)2, where M(IV) is a tetravalent metal or a mixture of tetravalent metals. These compounds are insoluble in water the greater part of most organic solvents. They show a high non-water assisted protonic conductivity (about 0.01-0.04 S/cm at 100° C. and a relative humidity lower than 1%). These compounds can be used as proton conduction separators in electrochemical devices, to operate at low relative humidity values, as for example in different fuel cells, protonic pumps for electrochemical hydrogenation and dehydrogenation of organic compounds, or for hydrogen production from hydrogenated organic compounds by electro-reforming, or also for removing hydrogen from equilibrium reactions. These compounds can also be used in electrochemical sensors, in super capacitors and as acid catalysts in non-aqueous or anhydrous gaseous phases.

摘要:
The invention is based on the preparation of precursor organic solutions of tetravalent metal phosphates and pyrophosphates with composition M(IV)(O3P—H)2, M(IV)[O2P(OH)2]2[O2PO(OH)] and M(IV)P2O7(M=Zr, Hf, Ti). An important property of these solutions is that the said compounds are formed when the solvent is evaporated. This peculiarity allows an easy insertion of the compounds inside the pores of porous membranes, in polymeric membranes and in the electrodic interfaces of fuel cells. The acid properties of their surfaces, the high thermal stability and the insolubility in water make these particles extremely of interest for improving the efficiency of PEMFCs in the temperature range 90-130° C. The peculiar characteristics of non-water assisted proton conductivity of M(IV)[O2P(OH)2]2[O2PO(OH)] compounds open new prospects for their application in PEMFCs at low relative humidity.

摘要:
The invention provides composite membrane materials comprising a polymer of the state of art uniformly filled with a zirconium phosphate, preferably α-zirconium phosphate or zirconium phosphate sulfoarylenphosphonate particels. The composite membrane materials are preferably prepared starting from a solution of a polymer of the state of art and from a colloidal dispersion of α-zirconium phosphate or a zirconium phosphate sulfoarylenphosphonate. The colloidal particles are transferred into the solution of the polymer preferably by mixing the dispersion with the solution or by means of phase transfer. The membrane material is preferably obtained by removing the solvent by evaporation or by a suitable non-solvent. Besides the composite membrane materials and the preparation methods, the use of the above membrane materials is claimed as ionomeric membranes with high overall performance in high tempreature, especially hydrogen, and in indirect methanol fuel cells and with decreased methanol crossover in direct methanol fuel cells.
