Abstract In this paper we present the synthesis of two composite membranes with sulfonated polyether etherketone as support polymer and as conductive polymers: polyaniline and poly(p-phenylenediamine) - which has a similar structure with polyaniline. The support membranes were obtained by the phase inversion process, the conductive polymers were added by in situ polymerization into the membrane pores, and to increase the conductive properties they were doped with polystyrene sulfonic acid. The synthesized membranes were characterized by FT-IR spectroscopy, SEM, EDAX and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. Graphical abstract [...]
