Material
  • •} Fuel cell systems need to use materials that are pure. If not, ion leaching will occur which will poison the catalyst & clog the membrane, lead to life time & efficiency drop of fuel cell system
  • •} Moreover, material with excellent hydrolytic and heat aging resistance is highly favorable to ensure its life time performance. Xytron™, our high-performance PPS compound, offers the high purity and superior mechanical performance needed to achieve the industry’s lowest ion leaching performance at temperatures up to 120°C, and highest hydrolytic and chemical resistance. This enables OEMs to develop long-lasting, highly efficient PEMFCs that lower the cost per kilometer and total cost of ownership for end users.
