New coating boosts electrolyser efficiency
Advanced coating boosts electrolyser capacity by 50pc
UK-based Oxford Nanosystems working with leading electrolyser manufacturers to test and scale up production of advanced metallic-alloy coating
UK-based advanced materials technology company Oxford Nanosystems has launched a new type of coating capable of driving down green hydrogen costs by increasing the production capacity of alkaline electrolysers by 50pc. The advanced metallic-alloy coating, called Nanoflux, is applied to the electrodes and promotes the formation and release of gas bubbles within the electrolyser. This enhances the overall efficiency of the process. The coating has been combined with a proprietary catalyst that accelerates the hydrogen generation reaction, the company says. “The company is working with a number of leading electrolyser manufacturers to test and, in due course, scale up the production of Na
