Synthetic anion exchange membranes (AEMs) usually suffer from low conductivity, bad alkaline stability and poor dimensional stability. Constructing efficient ion transport channels is considered to be one of the most effective ways for preparing the AEMs with the high conductivity and low swelling r...
