ORION Polymers for Renewable Energy Applications: Hydrogen Electrolyzers, Fuel Cells, Electric Vehicles
ORION AMX : ION EXCHANGE CAPACITY (IEC) = 2.19 MEQUIV/G (IN OH– FORM)
ORION AM : ION EXCHANGE CAPACITY (IEC) = 2.2 or 2.8 MEQUIV/G (IN OH– FORM)
ORION AM (OH-) HAS NEARLY 3X THE IEC, ION EXCHANGE CAPACITY, OF NAFION (H+) !
- Orion AM delivers high temperature stability, high chemical stability, and robust mechanical features.
- It is the ONLY hydroxide exchange membrane to show virtually no degradation at 80°C for 1000 hours in NREL comparative testing of anion exchange samples (AEM) obtained globally.
- Orion has a passion for developing a sustainable, clean energy future.
- We’re proud of the strides we’ve made in durable AEM for renewable energy.
- Your support is critical to ensure that this technology continues to advance.
- Help accomplish a clean energy future by incorporating Orion ground-breaking AEM into your projects.
