PEMs based on SPVdF-co-HFP and SPES were synthesized and characterized successfully.
Selectivity ratio of the prepared blend PEMs is much higher than Nafion.
The proton conductivity of 7.2 × 10−3 S cm−1 was achieved by SPVdF-co-HFP/SPES10 blend membranes.
Overall membrane performance of SPVdF-co-HFP/SPES blend PEMs was superior compared to pure SPVdF-co-HFP and Nafion.
