MEE was polymerized with GMA as well as GMA-ethylene dimethacrylate (EGDM) to form porous beads. The terpolymer beads were observed using optical microscopy and SEM and characterized for internal pore volume, equilibrium volume-swelling ratio and dimethyl formamide and aqueous buffer regain. The morphology of the beads was dictated by the mole fraction and molecular weight of MEE in the feed. Porosity was found to increase with increase in molecular weight of MEE. Thus, porosity as high as 49%, 50% and 55% was observed with MEE of molecular weights 1580, 2580 and 3480, respectively. At a specific terpolymerization feed ratio of monomers, the terpolymers formed transform from gel like structure into a macroporous one, with increase in molecular weight of MEE.

Insight into membrane porosity and morphology was obtained by water flux, solute rejection, bubble point, pore size distribution, SEM and AFM analyses. It was found that merely increasing polymer concentration does not necessarily reduce pore size of membranes. Among four solvents used for the dope solution preparation, N-methyl pyrrolidone was found to offer membranes with optimal combination of flux and rejection of various solutes. Some of the PAN(17) (17% w/w PAN concentration in the dope solution) membranes prepared using organic acid as the additive (citric acid, tartaric acid or maleic acid) offered 1.2-1.7 times higher flux than the membrane prepared using inorganic salt, ZnCl2 as an additive. The porosity of PAN(17) membrane prepared using CA as an additive was larger as compared to membrane prepared using ZnCl2 as an additive. Atomic force microscopy (AFM) analysis of this membrane exhibited higher surface roughness as compared to the ZnCl2 based membrane. Both these membranes exhibited bacteria (E. Coli) log reduction value (LRV) of at least 6; depicting applicability of these membrane for water disinfection. (C) 2011 Elsevier B.V.

Its niche intrinsic characteristics could be highly useful in the membrane preparation for various separation applications, especially under harsher environments. To gain insights towards this feasibility, ABPBI based supported membranes were prepared by phase inversion method. Effects of the nonwoven porous support material (polypropylene/polyester), non-solvent (water/0.5 N NaOH) and polymer concentration (6 or 4 wt%) on the membrane properties (water flux, rejection and porosity) were investigated. The stability of these membranes towards common organic solvents, concentrated acid (25 N H2SO4), base (2.5 N NaOH) and an autoclave condition was analyzed. ABPBI membrane showed a pore collapse after drying. In order to avoid this, the glycerol treatment was not only found to be suitable but also repeatable, without significant deviations in the water flux.&lt;/p&gt;</style></abstract><custom3><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Foreign</style></custom3><custom4><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">6.035</style></custom4></record><record><source-app name="Biblio" version="7.x">Drupal-Biblio</source-app><ref-type>17</ref-type><contributors><authors><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Won, Ahyeon</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Agarwal, Harshal</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Ranganath, Suresha</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Torris, Arun</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Cremers, Carsten</style></author><author><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Tubke, Jens</style></author></authors></contributors><titles><title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Structure-performance relationships of commercial cathode gas diffusion layers in high-temperature PEM fuel cells</style></title><secondary-title><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Fuel Cells</style></secondary-title></titles><keywords><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">COMSOL</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">equivalent circuit model (ECM)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">gas diffusion layer (GDL)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">high-temperature polymer electrolyte fuel cell (HT-PEMFC)</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">Pore size distribution</style></keyword><keyword><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">porosity</style></keyword></keywords><dates><year><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">2026</style></year><pub-dates><date><style  face="normal" font="default" size="100%">JUL</style></date></pub-dates></dates><volume><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">26</style></volume><pages><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">e70137</style></pages><language><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">eng</style></language><abstract><style face="normal" font="default" size="100%">&lt;p&gt;
	The influence of cathode gas diffusion layer (GDL) architecture on the performance of high-temperature proton exchange membrane fuel cells (HT-PEMFCs) remains insufficiently understood, particularly for commercially available materials with different substrate and microporous layer (MPL) designs. In this study, six commercial cathode GDLs were systematically compared using polarization analysis, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, contact-angle measurement, scanning electron microscopy, mercury intrusion porosimetry, x-ray computed tomography, and COMSOL simulation. SGL 36BB and 22BB showed the best performance under both H2/Air and H2/O2, reaching maximum power densities of 0.445 +/- 0.005 and 0.426 +/- 0.011 W/cm2, whereas H23C2 performed worst at 0.302 +/- 0.008 W/cm2. The electrochemical and structural results indicate that backing-layer hydrophobic treatment and MPL architecture play a critical role in phosphoric acid management and transport losses, whereas porosity alone does not fully explain the observed performance ranking. The simulation reproduced the overall experimental trend for most GDLs, while the deviation observed for H23C2 suggests that acid-related effects should be more explicitly considered in future modeling of HT-PEMFC GDLs.&lt;/p&gt;
