3x Lower Cell Voltage Drop

Area resistance of 0.09-0.1 ohm-cm2 vs Zirfon's 0.30 ohm-cm2 reduces the voltage penalty across the membrane by approximately 0.08V per cell at typical operating current densities.

Drop-In Stack Compatibility

IONZERA is fully compatible with standard AWE operating conditions: 30 wt% KOH electrolyte, temperatures up to 45 degrees C, and current densities from 0.2-0.6 A/cm2. No frame modifications required.

Mesh-Free Uniform Performance

Without PPS mesh reinforcement, IONZERA provides more consistent pore distribution across the entire active area, reducing localized hot spots and non-uniform current distribution in large-format cells.

Compact Stack Design

At 350-410 um, IONZERA is 20-30% thinner than Zirfon, enabling higher cell density per stack length and reducing overall stack weight and footprint.

Alkaline Water Electrolysis in Canada’s Hydrogen Market

Canada's Hydrogen Strategy positions the country as a major hydrogen producer and exporter. Alberta's oil and gas expertise is pivoting toward clean hydrogen, while British Columbia leverages hydropower for green electrolysis. Calgary and Edmonton are emerging as hydrogen technology and deployment hubs.

IONZERA supports Canadian hydrogen ambitions with a high-performance membrane that improves electrolysis efficiency, helping Canadian projects compete in the global clean hydrogen market.
