Catalyst coated membrane with the lowest known Iridium loading.
Product
At bspkl we specialise in developing catalyst coated membrane solutions to overcome catalyst supply challenges and manufacturing bottlenecks.
Catalyst Coated Membrane for PEM Electrolysis
25x less catalyst materials & bespoke catalyst formulation
0.122 mg/cm2 total PGM catalyst loading
0.089 mg/cm2 of Iridium
We can develop new catalyst mixes or doping formulations to best meet your performance criteria. We have demonstrated CCM with Platinum, Iridium and Ruthenium catalyst materials
Flexible catalyst layer
Our products don’t demonstrate delamination of the catalyst layer from the membrane.
Direct deposit on membrane, means our CCM doesn’t require a carbon support structure layer
The flexible catalyst layer is not susceptible to cracking
High performing and durable CCM
We are targeting a CCM performance profile of
Current densities of above 1 A/cm2 at 2.1V, with R&D underway to increase the performance to 2 A/cm2
Degradation rates of <3µV/h
Reliable, scalable and sustainable supply of CCM
As demand for your electrolyser systems increases, our ability supply can scale with you. Our approach to breakthrough manufacturing completely re-thinks how CCM can be manufactured. By utilizing technology from the semiconductor industry, we can produce CCM rapidly and through a highly scalable approach.
Catalyst Coated Membrane for AEM and Fuel Cells.
Our manufacturing approach for CCM is flexible, which means we can produce bespoke CCM products tailored to your needs. We can deliver CCM for new and emerging electrolyser or fuel cell technologies
Catalyst Agnostic
Our low catalyst loading approach is not limited to the PGM group, we can design CCM using most available catalyst materials, such as Iron/Nickel complexes and other catalyst formulations emerging from research.
Membrane Agnostic
We can apply a catalyst layer to any membrane material, so long as it comes in a dry, roll format. We don’t require any pre- or post-processing to the membrane material which minimizes the potential for damage or micro-tearing to the membrane.
