The study successfully synthesized a composite material with polyoxometalate and an ionic liquid confined in metal-organic framework channels through electrostatic interaction at ambient conditions. The obtained material exhibits fast proton transfer and high proton conductivity, which makes it a potential room-temperature proton conductor without a humidifier. Furthermore, the material can be fabricated into a composite membrane for proton-exchange membrane fuel cells, showing promising power density.
Seeking fast proton transport pathways at ambient conditions is desirable but challenging. Here, we report a strategy to synthesize a composite material with a polyoxometalate (POM) and an ionic liquid (IL) confined in stable metal-organic framework (MOF) channels through electrostatic interaction. The obtained SO3H-IL-PMo12@MIL-101 possesses fast proton transfer, and its proton conductivity can reach 1.33 x 10(-2) S cm(-1) at ambient conditions (30 degrees C, 70% relative humidity (RH)), which is the highest value among the MOF-based proton conductors operated in an ambient environment. Therefore, it has the potential of becoming a room-temperature proton conductor without a humidifier. Importantly, the composite material is further fabricated into a composite membrane for proton-exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), which can deliver a power density of 0.93 mW cm(-2) at 30 degrees C and 98% RH. This result can lay a fundamental basis for the application of MOF-based proton conductors in the area of electrochemical energy conversion.
