Prominent Progress in Polysulfone-Based Anion Exchange Membrane Fabrication by Electrospinning

Developing cost-effective anion exchange membranes (AEMs) with boosted ionic conductivity, desired mechanical properties, and sufficient alkaline stability remains a significant challenge in manufacturing. We've made great progress in producing an intrinsic AEM by electrospinning with a blended solution of polysulphone and Fumion® (a commercial ionomer solution from Fuma-Tech, Germany), followed by characterization tailored for water electrolyzer applications. Our results demonstrate significant potential for propelling the manufacturing of a novel breed of electrospun AEMs optimized for hydrogen production. The outcome represents a prominent improvement over our initial endeavor, which is a big step forward in our goal to make manufacturing easier and create top-notch AEMs for hydrogen production.
