Abstract

Proton-conducting materials are an important component of fuel cells. Development of new types of proton-conducting materials is one of the most important issues in fuel-cell technology. Herein, we present newly developed proton-conducting materials, modularly built porous solids, including coordination polymers (CPs) or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). The designable and tunable nature of the porous materials allows for fast development in this research field. Design and synthesis of the new types of proton-conducting materials and their unique proton-conduction properties are discussed. Pores and protons: Development of new types of proton-conducting materials is important in fuel-cell technology. Newly developed proton-conducting materials formed from modularly built porous solids, including coordination polymers (CPs) or metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) are discussed (see scheme).
