Product Description

·Nafion PEM is a proton-conducting polymer membrane, also known as perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) membrane, which allows only protons (cations) to pass through
·It is commonly used in H-type or three-compartment H-type electrolytic cells to separate the anode and cathode chambers
·Primarily applied in membrane electrode assemblies (MEA) for proton exchange
·Membrane fuel cells, it serves to separate reactants and conduct protons 
It can be used after soaking in an electrolyte solution or directly in experiments
·1 pack; custom sizes available

Nafion Membrane Pretreatment Required:
Recommended pretreatment: Treat with 5% hydrogen peroxide solution at 80 °C for 1 hour, soak in deionized water for 30 minutes, then boil in 5% dilute sulfuric acid (by mass) at 80 °C for 1 hour, and finally soak in deionized water for another 30 minutes. Alternatively, depending on the users established practices, the membrane may also be used directly after soaking in the electrolyte solution.
