Abstract
In a method for making anion electrolyte membrane a fluorinated poly(aryl ether) ionomer is dissolved in a solvent to form a ionomer solution. A crosslink component is added to the ionomer solution, to achieve a transparent solution. An inorganic component precursor and water are introduced to the transparent solution, to form a sol-gel mixture. A crosslink catalyst is mixed with the sol-gel mixture to form a membrane casting solution. The membrane casting solution is coated on a substrate to form a membrane, and heated. The membrane is removed from the substrate.
