Membrane for H2 relative systems

  • Membrane for H2 relative systems

    Fuel cells are energy that utilizes hydrogen, one of the nation’s 10 key strategic technologies. The conversion system can contribute to minimize climate change through fossil fuel substitution and CO2 reduction that realizes carbon neutrality and improving energy independence. High-temperature polymer membrane fuel cells have advantages in terms of high output, weight and volume reduction, and thermal management system price/weight reduction. Thus, it is suitable for future long-distance transportation applications. However, the high-temperature polymer membrane fuel cell, a next-generation fuel cell, is in the early stage of research. Our lab focuses mainly on to develop new ion exchange membranes and to identify the ion transport mechanism in a high temperature with non-humid environment.
