This invention relates to a silane-resin composition that can be obtained by
at least partial hydrolytic condensation of at least the following components:
(1) one or more sulfonic acid group-containing silane(s) with at least one group
that can be cleaved under hydrolytic conditions, (2) one or more styryl-functionalized
silane(s) and (3) one or more silane(s) that carry a nitrogen-containing heterocyclic
compound, an amine group or a sulfonamide group with at least one group that can
be cleaved under hydrolytic conditions, and mixing of the components before, during
or after the hydrolytic condensation, as well as a process for the production of
this composition. With the silane resin that is obtained, proton-conductive, organically
cross-linked heteropolysiloxanes can be produced that are suitable for PEMFC in
a layer or membrane form as proton-conductive systems. Their proton conductivity
can be further increased by the addition of suitable liquids.
