Single-step radiation induced grafting for preparation of proton exchange membranes for fuel cell

A single-step method for preparation of sulfonic acid proton exchange membranes (PVDF-g-PSSA) by grafting of sodium styrene sulfonate (SSS) onto electron beam irradiated poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) was studied. The microstructure of the obtained membranes was characterized using Fourier transfo...
