Abstract

Membrane is the main component of a fuel cell that serves as a separator between the cathode and anode as well as a proton conductor medium. In this research, chitosan (CS) had been used as matrix and montmorillonite(MMT)as filler. Prior to be used, the filler was modified by silane 10%, and sulfosuccinic acid (SSA) was used as cross linking agent. The aim of this research is to explore the effect of the addition of sulfosuccinic acid to the special properties of composite membrane. The optimum composition obtained was CS/MMT-Sil 10%/SSA 12%, which shows the highest proton conductivity and the lowest methanol permeability. The usage of combined CS, MMT and SSA could be considered as a promising polyelectrolyte membrane for DMFC applications.
