Mesh for hydrogen related use
Mesh for Membrane Support
ea-hydrogenMesh for Membrane Support
Mesh can be used for reinforcement of ion permeable membranes for water elecrrolysis systems by making mesh-membrane composites.
We can provide the mesh according to your requirements, including opening area (OPA) and thickness.
Features
• The high opening area maximizes the functionality of the membrane.
• The uniformity of the openings (OP) allows for better control of dimensional changes in the membrane compared to non-woven fabrics.
• Various materials can be selected (PPS, LCP, PET, PE, etc.).
