Four layer cation exchange fluoropolymer membrane

摘要

A cation exchange fluoropolymer membrane comprising at least three integrally laminated layers including a main layer made of a perfluorocarbon polymer having carboxylic acid groups as its ion exchange groups with an ion exchange capacity of from 1.4 to 2.0 meq/g dry resin and having a thickness of from 50 to 250 mu m, a sulfonic acid film surface layer formed on one side of said main layer, made of a perfluorocarbon polymer having sulfonic acid groups as its ion exchange groups with an ion exchange capacity of from 0.5 to 1.5 meq/g dry resin and having a thickness of from 5 to 50 m, and a carboxylic acid film surface layer formed on the other side of said main layer, made of a perfluorcarbon polymer having carboxylic acid groups as its ion exchange groups with an ion exchange capacity of from 0.5 to 1.3 meq/g dry resin and having a thickness of from 5 to 50 mu m, said sulfonic acid film surface layer and carboxylic acid film surface layer constituting the outer-most layers, respectively.
