| Abstract: | Influence of the semi-aliphatic backbone on the molecular ordering and proton conductivity was investigated compared to the rigid aromatic backbone in highly proton-conductive organized polyimide thin films. We newly synthesized two alkyl sulfonated semi-aliphatic polyimides (ASSPIs) with different molecular weights and investigated their molecular organized structure, proton conductivity, water uptake, and dissociation state of protons from sulfonic acid groups in thin films by in-situ measurements for grazing incidence small-angle X-ray scattering (GISAXS), quartz crystal microbalance (QCM), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectra, and impedance spectra. Declining of planarity in the semi-aliphatic backbone reduced the aggregative character and molecular ordering in the lyotropic liquid crystalline (LC) structure. However, the higher molecular weight ASSPI exhibited the oriented lamellar structure in spite of lower planarity of the main chain. The proton conductivity of the oriented lamellar thin film displayed a more than half order of magnitude higher value of 1.5 × 10^<-1> S cm^<-1> than that of the non-oriented lamellar thin film (3.0 × 10^<-2> S cm^<-1>) at 25°C and 95% RH. These results indicate that, in sulfonated polyimide thin films, the lamellar orientation greatly contributes to the high proton conductivity in the ASSPI thin films. |
