Alkaline polymer electrolytes (APEs) are essential materials for alkaline energy conversion devices such as anion exchange membrane fuel cells (AEMFCs) and water electrolyzers (AEMWEs). Here, we report a series of branched poly(aryl‐co‐aryl piperidinium) with different branching agents (triptycene: highly‐rigid, three‐dimensional structure; triphenylbenzene: planar, two‐dimensional structure) for high‐performance APEs. Among them, triptycene branched APEs showed excellent hydroxide conductivity (193.5 mS cm−1@80 °C), alkaline stability, mechanical properties, and dimensional stability due to the formation of branched network structures, and increased free volume. AEMFCs based on triptycene‐branched APEs reached promising peak power densities of 2.503 and 1.705 W cm−2 at 75/100 % and 30/30 % (anode/cathode) relative humidity, respectively. In addition, the fuel cells can run stably at a current density of 0.6 A cm−2 for 500 h with a low voltage decay rate of 46 μV h−1. Importantly, the related AEMWE achieved unprecedented current densities of 16 A cm−2 and 14.17 A cm−2 (@2 V, 80 °C, 1 M NaOH) using precious and non‐precious metal catalysts, respectively. Moreover, the AEMWE can be stably operated under 1.5 A cm−2 at 60 °C for 2000 h. The excellent results suggest that the triptycene‐branched APEs are promising candidates for future AEMFC and AEMWE applications. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
