Synthesis and Characterization of Hydrophilic-Hydrophobic Disulfonated Poly(Arylene Ether Sulfone)-Decafluoro Biphenyl Based Poly(Arylene Ether) Multiblock Copolymers for Proton Exchange Membranes (PEMs)

Hydrophilic/hydrophobic block copolymers as proton exchange membranes (PEMs) has become an emerging area of research in recent years. Three series of hydrophilic/hydrophobic, fluorinated/sulfonated multiblock copolymers were synthesized and characterized in this thesis. These copolymers were obtaine...
