Abstract:For alkaline anion-exchange membrane electrolysers and fuel cells to become a technological reality, hydroxide-ion (OH−) conducting membranes that are flexible, robust, affording high OH− conductivity, and synthesised in a low-cost and scalable way must be developed. In this paper, we engineer a stable, self-supporting, and flexible fibre mat using a low-cost ZIF-8 metal–organic framework composited with ionic liquid tetrabutylammonium hydroxide and widely used polyacrylonitrile as polymeric backbone. We obtai… Show more
