sulfonated (醚醚酉同类)(SPEEK ) poly，有 sulfonation (DS ) 的相当高的度的膜过分地胀大并且甚至溶解在高温度。解决这些问题， sulfonated 酚酞 poly (醚 sulfone )(SPES-C， DS53.7%) 与 SPEEK 矩阵被混合(DS55.1% ， 61.7%) 准备 SPEEK/SPES-C 混合膜。在胀大的度和膜的甲醇渗透的减少是剂量依赖者。纯 SPEEK (DS61.7%) 膜在 70 ° 在水里完全溶解； C SPEEK (DS61.7%)/SPES-C 的胀大的度(40% ，由质量) 膜在 80 ° 是 29.7% ； C。从房间温度到 80 °； C，所有 SPEEK (DS55.1%)/SPES-C 混合膜的甲醇渗透比 Nafion® 的低大约一个数量级； 115。在更高的温度， SPES-C 聚合物的增加增加维的稳定性和更大的质子电导率能被完成。SPEEK (DS=55.1%)/SPES-C (40% ，由质量) 膜能承受温度直到 150 °； C。SPEEK (DS55.1%)/SPES-C 的质子电导率(30% ，由质量) 膜接近 0.16 S·；匹配 Nafion® 的厘米 −1, ； 115 在 140 °； C 和 100% RH，当纯 SPEEK (DS55.1%) 膜溶解在 90 ° 时； C。因为他们的好维的稳定性，高质子传导性，和低甲醇渗透， SPEEK/SPES-C 混合膜为在直接甲醇燃料房间的使用是有希望的。

A sulfonated poly（ether ether ketone） （SPEEK） membrane with fairly high degree of sulfonation （DS） swells excessively and even dissolves at high temperature. To solve these problems, sulfonated phenolphthalein poly（ether sulfone） （SPES-C, DS= 53.7%） is blended with the SPEEK matrix （DS= 55.1%, 61.7%） to prepare SPEEKJSPES-C blend membrane. The decrease in swelling degree and methanol permeability of the membrane is dose-dependent. Pure SPEEK （DS = 61.7%） membrane dissolves completely in water at 70℃, whereas the swelling degree of the SPEEK （DS = 61.7%）/SPES-C （40%, by mass） membrane is 29.7% at 80℃. From room temperature to 80℃, the methanol permeability of all SPEEK （DS = 55.1%）/SPES-C blend membranes is about one order of magnitude lower than that of Nafion 115. At higher temperature, the addition of SPES-C polymer increases the dimensional stability and greater proton conductivity can be achieved. The SPEEK （DS = 55.1%）/SPES-C （40%, by mass） membrane can withstand temperatures up to 150℃. The proton conductivity of SPEEK （DS = 55.1%）/SPES-C （30%, by mass） membrane approaches 0.16 S·cm^-1, matching that of Nafion 115 at 140℃ and 100% RH, while pure SPEEK （DS = 55.1%） membrane dissolves at 90℃. The SPEEK/SPES-C blend membranes are promising for use in direct methanol fuel cells because of their good dimensional stability, high proton conductivity, and low methanol permeability.
