Proton exchange membrane is one of the most important components for proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs). The preparation of proton exchange membranes based on sulfonated polyimide (SPI) for PEMFCs in recent years was reviewed, and methods of improving the water stability and proton conductivity of such membranes were highlighted. It was suggested that preparation of novel SPI membranes or organic-inorganic composite SPI membranes should be a reasonable approach to strengthen their combination property.

Methods to increase travel distance of mine electric locomotive from one charging at the expense of fuel cells with proton-exchange membrane and to improve efficiency of the process as a result of using selective composite materials have been considered. It has been demonstrated that the use of activated natural materials will make it possible to increase membrane conductance up to 3.6·10−2Cm·cm−1; that will allow increasing energy-efficiency of fuel cells for their operation in terms of mine electric locomotives.
