Sulfonated silica coated polyvinylidene fluoride electrospun nanofiber-based composite membranes for direct methanol fuel cells

A sulfonated silica coated polyvinylidene fluoride (S-SiO2@PVDF) nanofiber substrate with high strength and ultrahigh surface concentration of sulfonic acid groups was prepared by a three-step simple surface functionalization process. The S-SiO2@PVDF substrate was then used as both mechanical reinfo...
