Ma, Lingling; Hussain, Manzoor; Li, Lv; Qaisrani, Naeem Akhtar; Bai, Lei; Jia, Yabin; Yan, Xiaoming; Zhang, Fengxiang; He, Gaohong published an article in 2021. The article was titled 《Octopus-like side chain grafted poly(arylene piperidinium) membranes for fuel cell application》, and you may find the article in Journal of Membrane Science.COA of Formula: C6H11NO The information in the text is summarized as follows:
Octopus-like side chains are introduced in poly(arylene piperidinium)-based alk. anion exchange membranes (AEMs) to enhance the conductivity and stability. This type of side chain consists of a bulky rigid β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) as the “”octopus head””, and long flexible piperidinium ionic liquids as the “”arms””. The β-CD unit can enlarge internal free volume of the AEM to reduce ion transport resistance; the “”arms”” can interact with adjacent hydrophilic ionic groups and water, constructing continuous ion transport channels. The prepared poly(biphenyl piperidinium) AEM with “”octopus”” side chains at an ion exchange capacity (IEC) of 1.29 mmol g-1 exhibits higher hydroxide conductivity (121.5 mS cm-1 at 80°C) than that without the “”octopus”” structure (57.4 mS cm-1) although the latter has a larger IEC (1.55 mmol g-1). This “”octopus”” AEM retains 87.2% of its conductivity after being treated in a 1 M NaOH at 80°C for 480 h. The alk. H2/O2 fuel cell constructed with this “”octopus”” AEM produces a peak power d. of 469 mW cm-2; the cell voltage can be maintained by 85% during 16 h operation. This work illustrates the advantage of “”octopus”” side chain for enhancement of AEM performance. In addition to this study using 1-Methyl-4-piperidone, there are many other studies that have used 1-Methyl-4-piperidone(cas: 1445-73-4COA of Formula: C6H11NO) was used in this study.
1-Methyl-4-piperidone(cas: 1445-73-4) is a member of piperidine. Piperidine is ubiquitous structural motif widely occurred in diverse synthetically and naturally occurring bioactive molecules. Piperidines are an immensely important class of compounds medicinally: the piperidine ring is the most common heterocyclic subunit among FDA approved drugs.COA of Formula: C6H11NO
