Abstract

Nafion has been the material of choice for polymer electrolyte membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs), but during the last two decades, considerable efforts have been made to find an alternative with similar or better physicochemical properties and with lower manufacturing cost. Developments over the last two decades have resulted to some novel membrane materials with improved properties. Among the materials researched and developed, sulfonated poly(ether ether ketone) (SPEEK) has been the most promising and has the potential for commercialization. In this chapter, the properties of SPEEK and its characteristics are discussed.
