Hydrogen production
Cutting-edge solutions
for green hydrogen production
In order to produce hydrogen, electrolyzers apply an electrical current to water, causing it to separate into its basic elements, hydrogen and oxygen. This technology is fundamental in creating a sustainable source of hydrogen fuel, which is pivotal for clean energy initiatives and reducing reliance on fossil fuels. Reliable sealing solutions for hydrogen production play an essential role in supporting the safe and efficient operation of these electrolyzer systems.
Requirements
Our specialized sealing solutions, tailored to accommodate various electrolyzer technologies, are designed to meet the demanding requirements of your hydrogen production applications. With exceptional chemical resistance and a low hydrogen permeation rate, our elastomer components actively contribute to an efficient and reliable hydrogen production.
- Withstand pressures up to 50 bars
- Deal with temperatures 60-80°C (LT-PEM)
- High purity (cleanliness)
- Chemical resistance against hydrogen, oxygen, sulfuric acid and water
- Low hydrogen permeation rate
