Test Example 1

1. Test Object

[0107] An anion exchange membrane is further prepared by using the anionic resins prepared in example 6 and example 7 is used as the test object.

2. Test Items

(1) Mechanical Property Test

[0108] Apure tensile force is applied to the test object to break it according to GB T 20042.3. [0109] a. Tensile strength: the ratio of the maximum load that the test object bears when it breaks under the action of pure tensile force to the width of the stretched membrane is recorded, which is divided into transverse tensile strength and longitudinal tensile strength to evaluate the mechanical strength of the membrane. [0110] b. Elongation at break: the ratio of the distance between two points when the test object breaks under the maximum load before breaking to the original length is recorded, which represents the maximum deformation that an alkaline membrane bears before it is stretched to break, and is used to indicate the flexibility of the membrane.

3. Test Results

[0111] The test results in this test example are shown in table 3 and table 4. Among the test objects, the nitrogen-containing compound A1, the nitrogen-containing compound A2, the nitrogen-containing compound A3, and the nitrogen-containing compound A4 prepared in example 1 are all composed of the structural units conforming to segment I with a formula of

##STR00054##

Similarly, the molecular structure of nitrogen-containing compound D prepared in example 4 also includes the structural units conforming to the formula of segment I. While the nitrogen-containing compound F and nitrogen-containing compound G prepared in Comparative Example 1 and Comparative Example 2 are respectively composed of structural units conforming to segment II with a formula of

##STR00055##

and segment III with a formula of

##STR00056##

It can be clearly seen from the test results in this test example that, in the case that the species of anions contained in the anion resins are the same, the anion exchange membranes prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound A1, the nitrogen-containing compound A2, the nitrogen-containing compound A3, the nitrogen-containing compound A4 and the nitrogen-containing compound D, respectively have a higher tensile strength and higher elongation at break compared with the anionic exchange film prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound F and the nitrogen-containing compound G, respectively.

[0112] The nitrogen-containing compound B prepared in example 2 is similar to the nitrogen-containing compound F. The molecular structure of the nitrogen-containing compound B further includes structural units conforming to the formula of segment II. However, the nitrogen-containing compound B differs from the nitrogen-containing compound F in that the nitrogen-containing compound B further includes the structural units conforming to the formula of segment I. Based on this difference, in the case that the species of anions contained in the anion resins are the same, the anion exchange membrane prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound B have higher tensile strength and higher elongation at break compared with the anionic exchange membrane prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound F.

[0113] The nitrogen-containing compound C prepared in example 3 is similar to the nitrogen-containing compound G. The molecular structure of the nitrogen-containing compound B further includes structural units conforming to the formula of segment III. However, the nitrogen-containing compound C differs from the nitrogen-containing compound G in that the nitrogen-containing compound C further includes the structural units conforming to the formula of segment I. Based on this difference, in the case that the species of anions contained in the anion resins are the same, the anion exchange membrane prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound G have higher tensile strength and higher elongation at break compared with the anionic exchange membrane prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound C.

[0114] The molecular structure of the nitrogen-containing compound E prepared in example 5 includes structural units conforming to the formula of segment II and structural units conforming to the formula of segment III. Meanwhile, the molecular structure of the nitrogen-containing compound E further includes structural units conforming to the formula of segment I. It can be seen from the test results in this test example that the anion exchange membrane prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compound E have higher tensile strength and higher elongation at break compared with the nitrogen-containing compound F whose molecular structure includes structural units conforming to the formula of segment II and the nitrogen-containing compound G whose molecular structure includes t structural unit conforming to the formula of segment III, respectively.

[0115] Based on the test results in this test example, it can be shown that by using the structural units conforming to the formula of segment I to participate in the construction of the macromolecules of nitrogen-containing compounds, the flexibility of the anion exchange membranes prepared by using the nitrogen-containing compounds is improved, and the tensile strength and the elongation at break of the anion exchange membranes is improved. By applying the anion exchange membranes to the electrolyzer, the interface contact between the electrodes is optimized.
