Nanocrystal formation during thermal treatment of phosphoric-acid-swollen polybenzimidazole membranes

The design of suitable and efficient membranes for fuel and electrolyzer cells has been a long standing problem that still seeks for technical improvements. The structural properties of proton conducting poly [2,2-(m-phenylene)-5,5-bibenzimidazole] (PBI) membranes doped with phosphoric acid as elect...
