Abstract: The present invention relates to an ion conducting polymer including a partially branched block copolymer; a method of preparing the same; an ion conductor including the ion conducting polymer; an electrolytic membrane including the ion conducting polymer; a membrane-electrode assembly comprising the electrolytic membrane, and a battery comprising the same; and a separation membrane for a redox flow battery including the ion conducting polymer, and a redox flow battery comprising same. Specifically, the partially branched block copolymer includes: a first block including a hydrophilic first polymer; a second block derived from a hydrophobic second polymer having two or more reactive groups respectively on its both ends, in such a way as to form branching points forming side branches on a main chain; and optionally a third block including a hydrophobic third polymer.

Abstract: The present invention relates to an improved method for purifying a sulfonated aromatic monomer. The method is an economical method capable of providing a highly pure sulfonated aromatic monomer, in which a salt precipitation step and a recrystallization step are simplified while maintaining the reaction conditions used in a conventional method for synthesizing the sulfonated aromatic monomer, and a purification process is carried out using an easily available and stable chemical substance. The sulfonated aromatic monomer obtained by the purification method will be useful for the preparation of a polymer for a polymer electrolyte membrane and will be advantageous to synthesize polymer with high molecular weight.

Abstract: A method of surface modifying a polyimide film, a method of manufacturing a flexible copper clad laminate using the same, and a flexible copper clad laminate (FCCL) having a two-layer structure manufactured thereby. The method of surface modifying a polyimide film is conducted by modifying the surface of a polyimide film through a first plasma treatment, dipping the polyimide film into a solution containing an ethyleneimine-based silane coupling agent prepared by mixing the compound of Formula 1 and the compound of Formula 2 at a molar ratio of with 0.25˜1, and then modifying the surface of the polyimide film through a second plasma treatment. The method of surface modifying a polyimide film is advantageous because it may be substituted for a conventional surface treatment processes using ion beams.
