  • Patent number: 8519074
    Abstract: Polymers including pendent hydrophobic groups and pendent proton transfer groups are shown to form nanostructured films exhibiting greatly increased proton conductivity compared with films prepared from corresponding polymers lacking hydrophobic groups. The polymers can include repeating units each of which has both a hydrophobic group and a proton transfer group. Alternatively, the polymers can be the product of copolymerizing a first monomer with at least one hydrophobic group and a second monomer with at least one proton transfer group. The polymers are useful for the preparation of fuel cell proton exchange membranes.

  • Patent number: 8501887
    Abstract: A radical polymerizable composition includes a radical polymerizable compound and an organoborane-azole complex. The organoborane-azole complex includes an azole having at least two nitrogen atoms wherein at least one nitrogen atom is an sp3 nitrogen atom and is substituted. A method of forming the composition includes the step of combining the radical polymerizable compound and the organoborane-azole complex to form the composition. The method also includes the step of polymerizing the composition. A composite article which includes a substrate and a cured composition disposed on the substrate is also provided. The cured composition is formed from polymerization of the composition.
