Highly ion selective hydrocarbon-based membranes containing sulfonated hypercrosslinked polystyrene nanoparticles for vanadium redox flow batteries
Composite membranes based on sulfonated poly(phenylene sulfide sulfone) loaded with sulfonated hyper-crosslinked polystyrene nanoparticles are here proposed for redox flow battery applications. Nanoparticles havebeen synthesized via Friedel-Craft alkylation and subsequent post-functionalization, and their chemical structureand morphology has been fully deconvoluted.
