One-step synthesized HPW/meso-silica inorganic proton exchange membranes for fuel cells.
An inorganic proton exchange membrane with a high proton conductivity of 0.06-0.08 S cm(-1) at 70-100 degrees C and a low activation energy of 13.02 kJ mol(-1) was realized by immobilising HPW molecules into the mesoporous silica via a one-step self-assembly route assisted with a structure-directing surfactant.
