Design and development of branched polymers for advanced anion exchange membranes in water electrolysis for clean hydrogen production.

Anion exchange membrane water electrolysis (AEMWE) is a promising pathway for clean hydrogen production, enabling high efficiency while utilizing non-precious metal catalysts and cost-effective system components. A critical element in AEMWE systems is the anion exchange membrane (AEM), which facilitates hydroxide ion transport and maintains ionic separation between the electrodes under strongly alkaline conditions. A […]
