A strategy for improving the chemical stability of perfluorosulfonic acid is proposed by hydrothermal decarboxylation of defect groups with the assistance of counter ions and ethylene glycol at elevated temperatures. An apparent decrease in the carboxyl end groups is observed at decarboxylation temperatures of 180–220 °C. Decarboxylation of perfluorosulfonic acid significantly improves the chemical stability of the perfluorosulfonic electrolyte toward hydroperoxyl radicals, resulting in high concentrations of S2p and F1s after radical corrosion for 12 h. The decarboxylation of the electrolyte at elevated temperature also improves the side chain stability of the perfluorosulfonic acid. The fluoride emission rate decreases with increased decarboxylation temperature, implying a low side chain cleavage of the perfluorosulfonic acid polymer.
