Membrane Electrode Assemblies Bing Energy specializes in membrane electrode assemblies (MEAs) for proton exchange membrane fuel cells. BEI standard MEAs are made with our patent-applied-for carbon nanotube “buckypaper” cathode/anode technology in 5 or 7-layer configurations. Fabrication of carbon nanotube buckypaper in a gradient structure improves gas flows and effectiveness of catalyst utilization and provides a more durable structure.
A variety of membranes and materials are available and MEAs are custom fabricated to suit customer size, specifications, and operating conditions. Please contact us for further information or a quotation.
Key Features ▪▪ Buckypaper structure ▪▪ High power density ▪▪ Improved durability ▪▪ Reduced platinum loading ▪▪ High volume manufacturing
