The thermal, mechanical, and electric properties of hybrid membranes based on Nafion that contain a [(ZrO2)center dot(Ta2O3)(0.119)] core-shell nanofiller are elucidated. DSC investigations reveal the presence of four endothermic transitions between SO and 300 degrees C. The DMA results indicate improved mechanical stability of the hybrid materials. The DSC and DMA results are consistent with our previous suggestion of dynamic R-SO3H center dot center dot center dot[ZrTa] cross-links in the material. These increase the thermal stability of the -SO3H groups and the temperature of thermal relaxation events occurring in hydrophobic domains of Nafion. The broadband electrical spectroscopic analysis reveals two electric relaxations associated with the material's interfacial (sigma(IP)) and bulk proton conductivities (sigma(EP)). The wet [Nafion/(ZrTa)(1.042)] membrane has a conductivity of 7.0 X 10(-2) S cm(-1) at 115 degrees C, while Nafion has a conductivity of 3.3 X 10(-2) S cm(-1) at the same temperature and humidification conditions. sigma(EP) shows VTF behavior, suggesting that the long-range conductivity is closely related to the segmental motion of the Nafion host matrix. Long-range conduction (sigma(EP)) occurs when the dynamics of the fluorocarbon matrix induces contact between different delocalization bodies (DB), which results in proton exchange processes between these DBs.
