Sulfonated poly (ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) with four different sulfonation degrees (SDs) were prepared, and mixed with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) to prepare four series of SPEEK/PVDF blend membranes. The miscibility between SPEEK and PVDF was investigated by observing the micro-morphologies. The miscible blend membranes were found in the SPEEK/PVDF blend membranes in which either SPEEK had relatively low SD or consisted of low content of one component (either SPEEK or PVDF). The PVDF crystallinity was found to decrease in the SPEEK/PVDF membranes that had better blend miscibility. With the increase of PVDF content, all the blend membranes exhibited the decreased proton conductivity and methanol permeability, and the miscible blend membranes decreased more slowly than the immiscible ones.
