Abstract

The methods of 1H NMR and pulsed field gradient NMR are used to study the protic solid electrolyte of calix[4]arene-para-sulfonic acid in the temperature range of –15 to 24°C and water content λ of 1.6 to 5.7 H2O molecules per SO3H. Analysis of the 1H signal intensity in NMR spectra showed that no ice phase is formed in the whole studied temperature and water content range. The hydration numbers of H+(H2O)h complexes are calculated on the basis of the temperature dependences of chemical shift values. The pulsed field gradient NMR technique is used to determine self-diffusion coefficients. Activation energies Eact are calculated on the basis of the temperature dependences of self-diffusion coefficients. Good agreement of the data on diffusion Eact and protic conductivity are shown. A corollary of the Nernst–Einstein equation is used to calculate the values of protic conductivity on the basis of self-diffusion data. The calculated values of protic conductivity in the water content λ range of 1.6 to 5.7 agree with the data obtained experimentally.
