Titanium mesh is valued for its high strength, lightweight, and corrosion-resistant properties. It is used in a wide variety of Industries, Aerospace, Medical and used as Anode and Filter element in chlor-alkali industry and so on.
Titanium expanded mesh has several applications in fuel cells:
Electrode support: Fuel cells typically require a support material for their cathodes and anodes to provide good electronic and proton conductivity. Titanium stretch mesh, due to its high strength, high conductivity, and excellent corrosion resistance, can be used as a support material for electrodes. It enhances the structural stability of the electrodes, improves their conductivity, and promotes long-term stable operation of the fuel cell.
Electrolyte diffusion layer: The electrolyte diffusion layer in a fuel cell is responsible for delivering fuel and oxygen (or other oxidants) to the electrode reaction area and facilitating the diffusion of products. Titanium stretch mesh can be used as a substrate material for the electrolyte diffusion layer, providing good gas and liquid permeability while maintaining the structural stability of the electrolyte layer.
Oxygen reduction reaction catalyst support: The oxygen reduction reaction is a key process in fuel cells, and catalysts are typically used to enhance the reaction rate. Titanium stretch mesh can serve as a carrier material for catalysts, offering a high surface area and good electronic conductivity, which helps with catalyst dispersion and electron transfer, thereby improving the efficiency of the oxygen reduction reaction.
