Description
The 2.0 mg/cm² Platinum Ruthenium on Carbon Cloth is the most popular Gas Diffusion Electrode (GDE) for use in Direct Methanol Fuel Cells (DMFC). The Platinum Ruthenium (PtRu) catalyst is designed to facilitate the Methanol reaction to create an efficient DMFC. The Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) used is a standard carbon cloth with MPL, which is 410 microns thick. Other GDL materials are also available by custom request, as are custom sizes and loadings.
Includes a Nafion Post Coat for improved water management and adhesion to the membrane.
This product can be considered as a good replacement for the GDEs that were using W1S1009 and W1S1010 as the substrate of the same catalyst loading.
We usually carry this product as a stock item and it has short lead times (<1 week). Depending on the demand, the lead time may extend to 3-4 weeks.
