Organic/Zeolites Nanocomposite Membranes
2017There are different types of fuel cells, but Polymer Electrolyte Membrane (PEM) Fuel Cells are one of the most promising because they are low-temperature fuel cells. The solid polymer electrolyte has to present transport selectivity, besides the ion conductivity; thus in case of using in fuel cells, the membrane must let the hydrogen ions pass easily ...

Alumina membranes — templates for novel nanocomposites
Applied Organometallic Chemistry, 1998Three different examples have shown that nanoporous alumina membranes serve as ideal templates for the formation of nanostructured materials and also as a support of those materials in composites. The unique properties of such membranes (transparency, chemical resistivity, thermal stability, adjustable pore sizes etc.) and the very simple mode of ...
