Polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs) have been widely used for their ability to generate electricity in a sustainable way. However, the materials used in PEFCs present themselves with clear negative environmental impacts. Thus, the search for alternative materials is a critical aspect in order to improve the sustainability of such technologies. This dissertation aimed at the development of polymeric membranes of silk fibroin, a protein produced by the domestic silkworm, not thoroughly explored for fuel cell related applications. In an initial phase of this work, two methods for fibroin extraction and purification were tested and the one that proved to be more reproductive was chosen. After that, the membrane preparation condi...
