Optimize your research with highly customizable nanoporous layers

We now offer on-demand nanoporous layer deposition service. Using our patented dry deposition technology, we deposit highly porous, homogeneous layers on substrate of choice to meet your specific application needs. 

These ready-to-test coated substrates are ideal for rapid R&D, proof-of-concept validation, and shortening development cycles in a variety of advanced applications, including electrocatalysis (PEMWE, CO₂RR, HER, OER, N₂RR) and gas sensing (CO₂, N₂, CO, NH₃, toluene, H₂).


3

Binder free


The dry manufacturing process generates ultra-pure coatings free of chemical contamination.

3

Low loadings 


The reduced loading of coating materials supports both laboratory testing and scalable production.


3

High porosity


The large surface area increases the number of active sites for electrocatalysis or sensing.

3

Uniform thickness


The thickness uniformity of the coated layer facilitates efficient and controlled processes.




Iridium-coated titanium porous transport layers (PTLs)


Our iridium-coated PTLs are designed for durability in harsh operating conditions. With applications in water electrolysis, N2RR, and CO2RR, the coated PTLs are compatible with both experimental setups and industrial high-current-density environments.

  • Customizable loading down to 0.1 mg/cm2
  • Flexibility in substrate type and dimensions (up to 15 x 15 cm)
  • Large electrochemically active surface area
