Researchers demystify polymer binders to pave way for better sulfide solid-state electrolyte membranes
In hydrogen fuel cells, electrolyte membranes frequently undergo deformation and develop cracks during operation. A research team has recently introduced a fatigue-resistant polymer electrolyte ...
C&EN: Better Ion Transport Through Polymer Chemistry: Polymer Electrolytes and Ion-conducting Membranes
A recent article in ACS Applied Polymer Materials explored polymer electrolyte membranes (PEMs) designed for next-generation polymer electrolyte fuel cells (PEFCs). The membranes are based on ...
Shell Energy has started up a 10-MW polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) electrolyzer facility—one of the largest of its kind in the world—to produce green hydrogen at its Energy and Chemicals Park ...
EurekAlert!: Nagoya University researchers in Japan develop a new ultra-high-density sulfonic acid polymer electrolyte membrane for fuel cells
Nagoya University researchers in Japan develop a new ultra-high-density sulfonic acid polymer electrolyte membrane for fuel cells
Electrolysis is a key component of the cost of green hydrogen, and a Korean team says it's made a huge breakthrough with an anion exchange membrane that's not only cheaper than current proton exchange ...
pv magazine International: Redox flow battery based on ion-sieving sulfonated polymer membranes
A research team developed a flow-type polymer electrolyte cell for power storage. The cell reduces oxalic acid (OX) to glycolic acid, which has a higher volumetric energy-storage capacity than ...
The utilization of polymeric materials has endured since prehistory, at first unknowinglyin the form of natural biopolymers such as wood and leather, culminating and continuing through the development of the plastics industry in the early twentieth century. Polymers, along with other materials including silicate glasses, readily exhibit the glass transition upon quenching: a continuous but ...
