Herein, we focused on coordination polymer (CP) glass as a hybrid, soft electrolyte to meet these criteria. We applied a protic ionic liquid of which components work also as bridging ligand to construct CP structure with Zn<sup>2+</sup> ions. The structural analysis of the CP glass reveals that network formation results in enhancement of the properties of proton conductivity and viscoelasticity. The CP glass features a high anhydrous proton conductivity (<i>σ</i> = 13.3 mS cm<sup>−1</sup> at 120 °C) and high transport number of proton (0.94). Fabricated fuel cell with this CP glass membrane exhibits a high open circuit voltage (0.96 V) and a power density (0.15 W cm<sup>−2</sup>) under dry conditions at 120 °C.

Melt-quenched coordination polymer glass shows exclusive H+ conductivity (8.0 × 10−3 S cm−1 at 120 °C, anhydrous) and optimal mechanical properties (42.8 Pa s at 120 °C), enables the operation of an all-solid-state proton battery from RT to 110 °C.

A series of novel hybrid organic-inorganic membranes based on sulfonated naphthalimides and phosphotungstic acid N-methylpyrrolidone were prepared from a NMP solution. These materials, composed of two proton-conducting components, have good mechanical properties, high ionic conductivities (10.5×10−2S∕cm at 80°C) and good fuel cell performances at 70°C.

Sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (sPEEK) membrane is a promising proton-conducting membrane for fuel cell. However, the performance and lifetime of sPEEK membrane depend on the degree of sulfonation (DS). High DS of sPEEK increases the performance, but the mechanical properties could deteriorate progressively which affect its lifetime. Thus, this study investigated the effect of adding polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) into high DS (80%) of sPEEK through solution blending method toward its physicochemical properties and morphology structures. The PVDF concentration was varied to 5, 10, 15, and 20 wt% relative to the sPEEK content. The existence of hydrophobic PVDF in 80% sPEEK improved the mechanical properties where the water uptake and swelling degree of membrane decreased, whereas the tensile strength increased. The sPEEK/PVDF 15 exhibited the highest proton conductivity (46.23 mS cm−1) at 80°C. Incorporating PVDF into high DS of sPEEK enhanced the mechanical properties which can be used as a proton-conducting membrane for fuel cell that may improve the performance and prolong the lifetime of the cell.
