Abstract
A tetrakis(dialkylamino)phosphonium cation was evaluated as a functional group for alkaline anion exchange membranes (AAEMs). The base stability of [P(N(Me)Cy)(4)](+) was directly compared to that of [BnNMe(3)](+) in 1 M NaOD/CD(3)OD. The high base stability of [P(N(Me)Cy)(4)](+) relative to [BnNMe(3)](+) inspired the preparation of AAEM materials composed of phosphonium units attached to polyethylene. The AAEMs (hydroxide conductivity of 22 ± 1 mS cm(-1) at 22 °C) were prepared using ring-opening metathesis polymerization, and their stabilities were evaluated in 15 M KOH at 22 °C and in 1 M KOH at 80 °C.Entities:
