ABSTRACTThis investigation describes preliminary results of in-situ analysis of zinc deposition within an ionic liquid electrolyte utilizing electrochemical atomic force microscopy (EC AFM). From the AFM analysis, the morphology of the zinc deposition was analyzed by quantifying the surface roughness using height-height correlation functions. These results will be used to analyze the scattering data obtained from zinc deposition analysis utilizing an electrochemical ultra-small angle x-ray scattering (EC USAXS). The goal of this research is to link the early nucleation and growth behavior to the formation of detrimental morphologies.

AbstractThe hydrolysis of Nafion® † precursor material to a perfluorosulfonate ion exchange membrane has been studied in situ at the surface of a sample using atomic force microscopy (AFM), and in the bulk using a combination of small and wide-angle X-ray scattering. The AFM results show that there is a rapid and significant change in the surface morphology of the sample during the first 12 min after the introduction of aqueous hydroxyl ions, provided that an appropriate swelling agent is used. After this point there is little change in surface morphology, although bulk swelling of the sample continues. The wide-angle X-ray scattering results indicate a significant drop in the degree of crystallinity of fluorocarbon matrix from 14±1% to 7±1% on hydrolysis, as a result of the bulk structural reordering necessary to accommodate the formation of ionic clusters. Ionic clustering is confirmed by the appearance of a characteristic small-angle X-ray peak. However, the peak forms towards the end of the hydrolysis process, and subsequently coarsens, suggesting that the formation of ionic clusters is a slow process compared to the rate of hydrolysis. It is confirmed that an appropriate water/solvent mixture is necessary to achieve an efficient conversion of precursor to membrane. AFM images of the precursor surface, when water alone is used, show no signs of structural change.
