บทคัดย่อ (EN): The main energy crisis is that the world is at a point at which global energy demand begins outstripping supply. This led to the growing demand for renewable and alternative energy generation techniques like fuel cell and solar cells. Proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are often regarded as an ecofriendly energy conversion device due to their high efficiency, more electricity produced per unit cell of fuel, low CO2 emission, low operating temperature and quick start up. Nafion, a per fluorinated polymer substituted by sulfonic acid groups, is the most commonly used polymer for the fabrication in proton exchange fuel cell membranes. They are relatively expensive and difficult to synthesize and process. This review paper focuses on the synthesis of proton exchange membranes from locally available material, natural rubber. Polymer electrolyte based on modified natural rubber is prepared by incorporating salt to enhance their ionic conductivity at room temperature and the conductivity was found to increase with the weight percentage of PEO-ENR50 and LiCF3SO3 salt. Proton exchange membranes were synthesized by sulphonation of polystyrene butadiene rubber using chlorosulphonic acid as the sulphonating agent. Result of various analysis obtained revealed that the synthesized membrane possess better quality (solvent uptake, methanol permeability and thermal stability) in comparison to the Nafion 112 which is a commercially available membrane. The synthesized membrane was blended with carbon nanoballs which indicated 50% increase in proton conductivity. This paper suggests future work to be carried out to improve the membrane performance such as porton conductivity and tensile strength by performing chemical modification which converts the carbon-carbon double bond to carbon-carbon single bond.
