Guangwei He 8th sept ,2012 The influence of hydrophilcity of the microcapsule shell on water retention capacity
Background :Importence of water to PEM • The linear coefficient of proton conductivity to water uptake is 0.83. • Highly related to vehicle-mechanism proton transport and Grotthuss-menchanism proton transport.
Background :approaches devoted to enhanceing water uptake previously • Incorporation of hydrophilic filler into polymer • Hydrophilic modification

Introduction of my ongoing work • It is assumed that the degree of hydrophilicity of the microcapsule shell is essential factor affecting water-retention capacity of polymer microcapsule. -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH -COOH • This work will contribute to understanding the relationship between hydrophilcity of the microcapsule shell and its water retention capacity . Hydrophilicity is tuned by selectively used cross-linking agent
