Composite membranes of sulfonated poly (Ether ether ketone) with active carbon: Composite preparation and investigation of their properties for potential application for co2 electrochemical reduction
Fedorenko, Deniss; Vaivars, Guntars (Kauno Technologijos Universitetas, 2020)In this study, synthesis of sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) was performed using sulfonation method with concentrated sulfuric acid. Polymer with three degrees of sulfonation was obtained: 0.87; 0.82 and 0.74. ... -
Corrigendum to Evaluation of radiation stability of electron beam irradiated Nafion® and sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) membranes
Pajuste, Elina; Reinholds, I.; Vaivars, Guntars; Antuzevics, Andris; Avotiņa, L.; Sprūģis, Einārs; Mikko, R.; Heikki, K.; Meri, R.M.; Kaparkalējs, Reinis (Elsevier, 2022)Proton exchange membranes (PEM), which have been commonly used in fuel cells have raised interest for the application in harsh environments involving ionizing radiation. Therefore, radiation stability and ability to sustain ... -
Critical Evaluation of the Methods for the Characterization of the Degree of Sulfonation for Electron Beam Irradiated and Non-Irradiated Sulfonated Poly(ether ether ketone) Membranes
