A cross-linked, ionically conductive resin containing both sulphonic groups and quaternary nitrogen atoms is prepared by reacting one or more polysultones with a polymer containing in each molecule a plurality of tertiary nitrogen atoms. The preferred polysultone is the di-γ- sultone of 2,2-bis-(hydroxymethyl)-propane-1,3- disulphonic acid. The tertiary nitrogen atomcontaining polymer may be a polymer of vinyl pyridine, a dialkylaminovinylbenzene or a dialkylaminoalkylvinylbenzene, or a polymer grafted with a tertiary nitrogen atomcontaining monomer. An inert polymer may be included in the reaction mixture, e.g. a vinyl chloride polymer. Remaining tertiary nitrogen atoms on the polymer may be quaternized with a monosultone, e.g. propanesultone. In the examples films of the resins are cast using polyvinyl chloride, poly-para-dimethylaminostyrene, cyclohexanone, spirobi - 2: 21 - propanesultone, hexamethylphosphotriamide, propanesultone, dibutyl ether, squalene, xylene, polyvinyl chloride/4-vinyl-pyridine graft copolymer, pyridine and isobutanol.
