    Notes: Vibrational Raman and Fourier transform IR (FTIR) spectroscopy has been used to determine molecular and ionic interactions in poly(acrylonitrile)—(PAN) and poly(methylmetacrylate)—(PMMA) based gel electrolytes, containing LiClO4 salt and a mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC) as a gelating agent. A number of model systems, representing different stages of gel preparation, as well as the pure components, have also been studied. Vibrational spectra reveal interactions between EC and PC molecules in EC–PC mixture via electric dipoles located on C(Double Bond)O groups. In the salt-doped EC–PC system, additional bands close to the ring breathing and bending fundamentals of the carbonate ring of EC and PC, respectively, are attributed to solvent molecules interacting with the cations via Coulombic forces, the satellite band frequencies being well correlated to the cationic potentials. In the PMMA-based gels, no spectroscopically detectable interactions between the polymer matrix and the electrolyte were observed. In the PAN-based systems, in contrast, C(Triple Bond)N groups of PAN serve as attractive sites for both the solvent molecules and the cations, the preferable interaction being that between PAN and the solvent. © 1998 American Institute of Physics.

    Description / Table of Contents: Der Zustand von Wasser in Protonenaustausch-Membranen, hergestellt durch Pfropfen von Styrol auf Polyvinylidenfluorid-Filme (PVDF-g-PS) mittels Elektronenstrahlen und anschließendes Sulfonieren (PVDF-g-PSSA), wurde mittels Differentialkalorimetrie (DSC), Raman-Spektroskopie und Rontgen-Diffraktion (SAXS) ermittelt. Die Raman-Untersuchungen zeigten, daß einzelne Wassermolekule durch hydrophobe Wechselwirkungen an die Polymerketten gebunden sind. Die DSC-Untersuchungen zeigten, daß Wasser in den Membranen in drei verschiedenen Umgebungen vorliegt: nicht gefrierendes ionisch gebundenes Wasser, gefrierendes freies Wasser und gefrierendes gebundenes Wasser. Die Menge an nicht gefrierendem Wasser betragt unabhangig vom Pfropfungsgrad etwa 10 H2O/SO3H (mol/mol). Die Menge an gefrierendem Wasser ist stark vom Pfropfungsgrad abhangig. Oberhalb eines Pfropfungsgrades von 50% werden Werte von 40 H20/S03H (mol/mol) erreicht. Die Leitfahigkeit von nur nicht gefrierendes Wasser enthaltenden Membranen ist gering, d. h., das ionisch gebundene Wasser kann nicht allein die fur den Transport von Protonen und Wasser notwendigen Kanale bilden. Die SAXS Untersuchungen zeigten, daß Wasser/Sulfonsaure-Cluster in Membranen aus hydratisiertem PVDF-g-PSSA mit einem Bragg-Abstand von 25 Å gebildet werden. Diese Cluster formen die Kanale fur den Ionentransport und die Leitfähigkeit.
    Notes: The state of water in proton exchange membranes prepared by pre-irradiation (electron beam, 100 kGy) grafting of styrene onto poly(vinylidene fluoride) films (PVDF-g-PS), followed by sulfonation (PVDF-g-PSSA), has been studied with thermal analysis, Raman spectroscopy and small angle X-ray diffraction (SAXS). Raman spectra show that, in addition to free liquid water in the membranes, single water molecules are weakly bound to the polymer backbone. Thermal analysis shows that there are three types of water molecules in the membrane; non-freezable water associated with the ionic sites, freezable free water, and freezable bound water. The amount of non-freezable water is around 10 H2O/SO3H (mol/mol), and is independent of the degree of grafting (d.o.g.). The amount of freezable water is strongly dependent on the d.o.g. as long as the grafting has not penetrated the whole of the film, and reaches a value of around 40 H2O/SO3H (mol/mol) above a d.o.g. of 50%. The conductivity of membranes containing only the non-freezable water is low, i. e. the ionically bound water alone does not form the domains necessary for proton and water transport. SAXS measurements show that water/sulfonic acid clusters in hydrated PVDF-g-PSSA membranes with a Bragg distance of 25 Å are formed; these form the ion conducting channels in the membrane.

    Notes: Ion-polymer and ion-ion interactions in polymer electrolytes have been investigated at different temperatures and pressures, and for different polymer molecular weights. Salt-polymer complexes of various triflate salts, M(CF3SO3)x (M = Li+, Na+, Ca2+, Cu2+ and Nd3+), in low molecular weight polyethers (PEO and PPO) have been studied using Raman and Brillouin scattering. It is found that anions coordinated to the OH end groups of the polyethers are more stable than cations forming crosslinks between oxygens of adjacent chains, which in turn are more stable than cations coordinated to single chains. We have observed that the number of ion pairs increases as the polymer molecular weight increases. Furthermore, the ion-ion interaction is strongly temperature-dependent and shows widely different behavior in different systems. In the case of Li+-, Na+- and Ca2+-containing polyether complexes the ion association increases with increasing T. It is constant in Cu2+-triflate complexes, while it decreases for complexes containing trivalent Nd3+ cations. Pressure observations in LiCF3SO3-PPO complexes reveal increasing solubility and fewer ion pairs as pressure increases. It is shown that theories which consider volume changes in the salt dissociation process can qualitatively explain the effects of molecular weight, temperature and pressure using entropy considerations. The entropy effect includes contributions due to free-volume dissimilarities between the solvated ions and the macromolecules, structural ordering induced via cationic crosslinking of adjacent chains and electrostriction. Comparing the spectroscopic data with conductivity data, it is found that differences in the “free” solvated ion concentration can account for differences in conductivity.
