“…229 The proton conductivity can be increased by immersing the BC film in H3PO4, and the performance is improved by UV-induced grafting with 2-acrylamido-2-methyl-1-propanesulfonic acid. 230 Ionomer membranes can also be prepared from CNC and CNF through several carriers for charges and sulfuric acid groups, that are present after the acid hydrolysis. 231 Organic solar cells can be immobilized over nanocellulose film substrates, including CNF films with transparent and/or hazy properties 232 .…”

Polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEFCs) are an efficient and clean alternative power source, but the high cost impedes widespread commercialization. The fuel cell membrane, e.g. Nafion, contributes significantly to this cost, and therefore novel alternatives are required. Temperature is also an important factor; high temperature operation leads to faster reaction kinetics, lower electrocatalyst loading, and improved water management, thereby further reducing cost. However, higher temperature puts greater demands on the membrane. Conductivity is related strongly to humidification and therefore this generally decreases above 100°C. Nanocellulose membranes for fuel cells, in which the proton conductivity increases up to 120°C, are here reported for the first time. The hydrogen barrier properties are far superior to conventional ionomer membranes. Fuel cells with nanocellulose membranes are successfully operated at 80°C. Additionally, these membranes are environmentally friendly and biodegradable.

Cellulose is derived from biomass and is useful in a wide range of applications across society, most notably in paper and cardboard. Nanocellulose is a relatively newly discovered variant of cellulose with much smaller fibril size, leading to unique properties such as high mechanical strength. Meanwhile, electrochemical energy conversion in fuel cells will be a key technology in the development of the hydrogen economy, but new lower cost proton exchange membrane (PEM) materials are needed. Nanocellulose has emerged as a potential candidate for this important application. In this review we summarize scientific developments in the area of cellulosic materials with special emphasis on the proton conductivity, which is the most important parameter for application in PEMs. We cover conventional cellulose and nanostructured cellulose materials, polymer composites or blends, and chemically modified cellulose. These developments are critically reviewed, and we identify interesting trends in the literature data. Finally, we speculate on future directions for this field.
