Abstract
The main patterns of the hydration of sulfo groups, the translational mobility of water molecules, alkali metal cations, and ionic conductivity in sulfocation-exchange membranes (MSC) based on polyethylene and sulfonated grafted polystyrene have been investigated using NMR and impedance spectroscopy techniques. It has been shown that at moisture contents λ < 4 (λ is the number of water molecules per sulfo group) the H+ counterions in the membranes form diaquahydrogen ions \({{{\text{H}}}_{{\text{5}}}}{\text{O}}_{{\text{2}}}^{ + }{\text{.}}\) In the temperature range below 0°C at λ < 12, water molecules retain high mobility and do not form the ice phase. Water molecules diffusion coefficients (for the H+ form, the average diffusion coefficient of water molecules and acidic protons) and first for ion-exchange systems, and the diffusion coefficients of counterions Li+, Na+, and Cs+ have been measured by pulsed field gradient 1H, 7Li, 23Na, and 133Cs NMR spectroscopy. In MSC membranes in contact with water, the self-diffusion coefficients of cations increase in the Li+ < Na+ < Cs+ series. The cation conductivity values are in the same Li+ < Na+ < Cs+\( \ll \) H+ sequence. The cation conductivity values calculated from the self-diffusion coefficients based on the Nernst–Einstein equation are essentially higher than the experimental values.
