How does graphitization affect the structure and properties of carbon fiber papers?
The manufacturing process of our LINQCELLTM carbon-based gas diffusion (or porous transport) layers involves three major steps: (1) paper wet laying, (2) carbonization, and (3) graphitization. During the wet paper […]
Why do fuel cells use thin GDLs?
In our previous blog article, we highlighted that gas diffusion layers (GDLs) are commonly available in various thicknesses. Interestingly, electrolyzers tend to utilize thicker GDLs, while fuel cells typically require […]
What is the role of GDLs in Electrolyzers
Gas Diffusion layers evenly distribute the gases produced during electrolysis and enable the efficient operation of the electrolyzer.
How are carbon papers made?
Carbon papers as gas diffusion layers are a popular solution for fuel cell and electrolyzer applications since they can be manufactured at high volumes (scalability) and low thicknesses. But how are they made? Click here to find out.
