Polybenzimidazoles containing heterocyclic benzo[c]cinnoline structure are synthesized from 3,8-benzo[c]cinnoline dicarboxylic acid, terephthalic acid and 3,3′-diaminobenzidine. Their membranes are prepared by sol-gel process, involving the conversion of polymer solution in polyphosphoric acid to phosphoric acid. The acid doping levels of the as-prepared membranes increase as the contents of benzo[c]cinnoline increase, indicating good interaction between phosphoric acid and benzo[c]cinnoline structure. The as-prepared membranes with high acid doping levels might lead to the dissolution of membranes in phosphoric acid at temperature higher than 120 °C. A new method is proposed to adjust acid doping levels by immersing the as-prepared membranes in diluted phosphoric acid solutions of various concentrations. The adjusted membranes (acid doping levels around 30 PA RU−1) exhibit enhanced mechanical properties with tensile strength in the range of 4.1–5.2 MPa. The proton conductivity of adjusted membranes maintain at 0.15–0.17 S cm−1 at 160 °C under ambient atmosphere without humidification. The single cells based on the adjusted membranes exhibit open circuit voltages and peak power densities from 0.89 to 0.91 V and 691–1253 mW cm−2 at 160 °C, respectively. Compared to other polybenzimidazole membranes prepared by sol-gel process, the adjusted polybenzimidazoles show higher mechanical strength and better single cell performance.

Nonnoble metal catalysts are low-cost alternatives to Pt for the oxygen reduction reactions (ORRs), which have been studied for various applications in electrocatalytic systems. Among them, transition metal complexes, characterized by a redox-active single-metal-atom with biomimetic ligands, such as pyrolyzed cobalt–nitrogen–carbon (Co–Nx/C), have attracted considerable attention. Therefore, we reported the ORR mechanism of pyrolyzed Vitamin B12 using operando X-ray absorption spectroscopy coupled with electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, which enables operando monitoring of the oxygen binding site on the metal center. Our results revealed the preferential adsorption of oxygen at the Co2+ center, with end-on coordination forming a Co2+-oxo species. Furthermore, the charge transfer mechanism between the catalyst and reactant enables further Co–O species formation. These experimental findings, corroborated with first-principle calculations, provide insight into metal active-site geometry and structural evolution during ORR, which could be used for developing material design strategies for high-performance electrocatalysts for fuel cell applications.
