Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a technology of preparing an anion exchange composite membrane including: a porous polymer support; and a polyfluorene-based anion exchange membrane or a polyfluorene-based anion exchange membrane having a cross-linked structure formed on the support, and applying the same to alkaline fuel cells, water electrolysis, carbon dioxide reduction, metal-air batteries, etc. The polyfluorene-based anion exchange composite membrane including a porous polymer support according to the present disclosure has remarkably improved mechanical properties, dimensional stability, durability, long-term stability, etc.

Abstract: A novel polyfluorene-based ionomer, an anion exchange membrane, a method for preparing the polyfluorene-based ionomer, and a method for fabricating the anion exchange membrane are proposed. The polyfluorene-based ionomer contains no aryl ether bonds in the polymer backbone and includes piperidinium groups incorporated into the repeating units. The anion exchange membrane is fabricated from the polyfluorene-based ionomer. The anion exchange membrane has good thermal and chemical stability, excellent mechanical properties, and high ion conductivity. Due to these advantages, the anion exchange membrane can be applied as a membrane for an alkaline fuel cell and to a binder for an alkaline fuel cell or water electrolysis.
