摘要
The ortho-positronium (o-Ps) lifetime was measured as a function of temperature for the perfluorinated PEMs Nafion NR212 and Aquivion E8705. The o-Ps lifetime in Aquivion E8705 was found to be shorter than Nafion NR212 in the entire temperature range studied. Abrupt changes in the temperature coefficient of the o-Ps lifetime were noticed and the a-relaxation, b-relaxation, and stress relief temperatures were identified. It turned out that Aquivion E8705 has higher a-relaxation and stress relief temperatures than Nafion NR212. Dissociation of the ionic clusters and large change in the nanostructure after heating to 160 degrees C were observed for Nafion NR212 but not for Aquivion E8705. It is demonstrated that Aquivion E8705 has a higher thermal stability than Nafion NR212.
