Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel proton exchange membranes and nanoporous materials were developed utilizing the co-continuous structures spontaneously formed in the crystallization process of crystalline polymers. (i) The proton exchange membranes having high proton conductivity and impeded methanol permeability were obtained by crystallizing the crystalline component at a high temperature and by sulfonating the amorphous component containing a small amount of an amorphous additive. (ii) The nanoporous structures were formed by crystallizing polyamides in polyamide-polyester block copolymers followed by degrading the polyester. The copolymers after the removal of the polyesters showed gas adsorption capability, which depended on the chemical structures of polyamides.
