Frequently Asked Questions

Is IONZERA a viable Zirfon alternative for German electrolyser OEMs?

Yes. IONZERA provides 3x lower area resistance (0.09-0.1 vs 0.30 ohm-cm2) and a 20% thinner profile compared to Zirfon PERL UTP 500. It is a drop-in replacement compatible with standard AWE operating conditions, offering German OEMs both performance improvement and supply chain diversification.

What is the lead time for IONZERA delivery to Germany?

Air freight delivery from India to Germany takes 5-7 business days. Sea freight for larger volume orders requires 4-6 weeks. G-Hexa is establishing European distribution for faster local availability.

Does IONZERA meet European quality and safety standards for electrolysers?

IONZERA meets the performance requirements for AWE separator membranes with gas crossover below 0.5% H2 in O2, bubble point pressure above 1.3 bar, and full compatibility with 30 wt% KOH electrolyte at temperatures up to 45 degrees C.
