A novel polyfluorene-based ionomer, an anion exchange membrane, a method for preparing the polyfluorene-based ionomer, and a method for fabricating the anion exchange membrane are proposed. The polyfluorene-based ionomer contains no aryl ether bonds in the polymer backbone and includes piperidinium groups incorporated into the repeating units. The anion exchange membrane is fabricated from the polyfluorene-based ionomer. The anion exchange membrane has good thermal and chemical stability, excellent mechanical properties, and high ion conductivity. Due to these advantages, the anion exchange membrane can be applied as a membrane for an alkaline fuel cell and to a binder for an alkaline fuel cell or water electrolysis.

According to the present disclosure, it is possible to prepare a separation membrane with improved mechanical and chemical stability and durability by remarkably improving the molecular weight together with solubility in solvent by providing the anion exchange material in which all bonds between monomers in the main chain are C—C bonds based on the carbazole-based material with high stability.

Hydrocarbon proton exchange membranes are disclosed that are composed of a material including a hydrophobic main chain, and acidic side chains. The main chain includes a polyaryl structure that is substantially free of ether linkages and also includes a fluoromethyl substituted carbon. The acidic side chains include a hydrocarbon tether terminated by a strongly acidic group, such as a fluoroalkyl sulfonate group. Chemical stability of the material is increased by removing the ether linkages from the main chain. The hydrophobic main chain and substantially hydrophilic side chains create a phase-separated morphology that affords enhanced transport of protons and water across the membrane even at low relative humidity levels. These materials are advantageous as membranes for use in fuel cells, redox flow batteries, water hydrolysis systems, sensors, electrochemical hydrogen compressors, actuators, water purifiers, gas separators, etc.
