The results obtained show that the inorganic oxide network decreases the proton conductivity and water swelling. It is found that it leads also to a decrease of the water, methanol, carbon dioxide and oxygen permeability coefficients, an increase of the water/methanol selectivity and a decrease of the carbon dioxide/nitrogen and oxygen/nitrogen selectivities. In terms of morphology, it is found that in situ zirconium alkoxide hydrolysis enables the preparation of homogeneous membranes that present a good adhesion between inorganic domains and the polymer matrix.}, note = {Online available at: \url{https://doi.org/10.1016/j.jpowsour.2004.08.004} (DOI).
