Elastic and durable crosslinked polymeric membrane for anion exchange membrane alkaline fuel cell

"membrane with the 40% crosslinking (40x-PBB-SEBS) proved to be the most optimal with respect to its balance between toughness and elasticity. It also demonstrated a very high ionic conductivity of 72.28–146.25 mS cm-1, and outstanding alkaline and oxidative stability, due to its increased crosslinking surpassed performance of commercial membrane by huge margin, when tested in real time using AEM water electrolysis"
