Ionomers for proton exchange membrane fuel cells by sulfonation of novel dendritic multiblock copoly(ether‐sulfone)s
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Abstract The synthesis and properties of the first examples of dendritic multiblock coPESs, bearing sulfonated dendritic clusters, that form strong membranes are described. End‐capped dendritic multiblock coPESs with various average block lengths (n = 50–80) were synthesized by two‐step reactions. The synthesis of dendritic blocks consisting of difunctional dendritic block and monofunctional dendritic end‐group was accomplished by an aromatic nucleophilic substitution reaction of hexakis(4‐(4‐fluorophenylsulfonyl)phenyl)benzene with varying amounts of 1‐(4‐hydroxyphenyl)‐2,3,4,5,6‐pentaphenylbenzene, which provides a number of pendant phenyl rings as postsulfonation sites. Polycondensation of a controlled molar ratio between 4,4′‐dihydroxybenzophenone and bis(4‐fluorophenyl)sulfone monomers was carried out in the presence of the difunctional and monofunctional dendritic blocks in sulfolane at 215 °C for 3.5 h. Essentially six sulfonic acid groups were introduced into each hexaphenylbenzene moiety on the dendritic blocks by reaction with a large excess of chlorosulfonic acid, followed by hydrolysis with KOH aqueous solution. The introduction of longer average blocks (n = 60–80) into the dendritic PESs improved the mechanical properties of the resulting sulfonated dendritic PES membranes. At a level of IEC (0.92–1.26 meq/g) similar to Nafion (0.91 meq/g), PES membranes showed proton conductivities (58–67 mS/cm) comparable with that of Nafion (99 mS/cm). © 2009 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
