Proven KOH Chemical Stability

IONZERA's polysulfone matrix with TiO2 and graphene oxide is specifically engineered for concentrated KOH environments, providing long-term chemical resistance in harsh alkaline conditions.

Ultra-Low Ionic Resistance

Area resistance of 0.09-0.1 ohm-cm2 in 30 wt% KOH reduces energy consumption in any alkaline electrochemical process, directly lowering operating costs.

Anti-Fouling Properties

Graphene oxide nanosheets and TiO2 photocatalytic activity provide inherent anti-fouling characteristics, extending membrane life in industrial electrochemical environments.

Mechanical Durability

Tensile strength of 2.7 MPa with adequate elongation at break ensures the membrane withstands the mechanical stresses of industrial-scale electrochemical cells.

Chlor-Alkali Process in Mumbai

Mumbai and the broader Maharashtra-Gujarat refinery corridor host some of India's largest petroleum refining and petrochemical operations. These facilities consume significant volumes of hydrogen for desulfurization and hydrocracking processes, creating a natural market for on-site green hydrogen production via alkaline electrolysis. The region's chemical and fertilizer industries further amplify hydrogen demand.

IONZERA is manufactured in Bengaluru, providing Mumbai-based projects with 2-3 day road freight delivery and zero import duties. For refineries transitioning from grey to green hydrogen, IONZERA's 3x lower membrane resistance reduces the electricity cost per kg of hydrogen, improving the payback period for electrolyser investments. G-Hexa provides direct technical support and rapid sample delivery.
