Elastic Nickel Porous Transport Layers for Enhanced Catalyst Layer Utilization of Anion Exchange Membrane Water Electrolysis

Electrochemical Science Advances, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
A multifunctional material combining flow field and porous transport layer functions is presented for AEM water electrolysis. The elastic knitted wire mesh interlayer enhances compression distribution, improves catalyst–membrane contact and prevents catalyst layer cracking during operation. The concept supports improved performance and enables scalable,
