Özet
AbstractA new type of sulfonated polyimide was synthesized from a one‐step polycondensation reaction with perylene‐3,4,9,10‐tetracarboxylic dianhydride and 4,4′‐diamino‐2,2′‐stilbenedisulfonic. Pure characterization of sulfonated polyimide (SPI) was performed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, proton nuclear magnetic resonance, thermogravimetric analysis, differential thermal gravimetric analysis, ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, and solubility tests. Moreover, the SPI film was prepared by a thermal imidization step heating procedure. Furthermore, quantum chemical calculations of the synthesized SPI were investigated with density functional theory (DFT) and time‐dependent density functional theory. By calculating the frontiers molecular orbital energies of the obtained polyimide, the highest occupied molecular orbital (HOMO) and the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO), and the energy gap (Δ) values were found for the one structural unit and three structural units of SPI, respectively. Also, QTAIM was carried out based on the AIMAll program. With the increase in water molecules, the average electronic energy density (HBCP) value decreased according to the results of QTAIM. The SPI can be used as a potential membrane in fuel cells.
