  • Excellent oxidative stability and chlorine resistance
  • Designed as ion exchange membranes for redox flow batteries

Product Description

LINQCELL VRB-AEM30 is a 30-µm partially fluorinated anion exchange membrane without reinforcement. It has low ohmic resistance, excellent mechanical properties, low water uptake, and minimal dimensional swelling. VRB-AEM30 has high oxidative stability, resists chlorine, and remains stable in acidic environments (pH > 4). The recommended operating temperature is from room temperature to 50 °C. LINQCELL VRB-AEM30 is highly suitable for electrochemical applications that require exceptional oxidative stability and chlorine resistance, such as redox flow batteries operating with very harsh, aqueous acidic solutions.

Key Features and Benefits:

  • Ultra-Low Ohmic Resistance: Minimizes energy losses and maximizes efficiency.
  • Exceptional Oxidative Stability and Chlorine Resistance: Withstands harsh chemical environments, including exposure to chlorine.
  • Minimal Water Uptake and Dimensional Swelling: Maintains stability and consistent performance over time.

Highly Recommended for:

  • Vanadium-Redox-Flow Batteries (VRBs)
  • Aqueous Acidic Redox-Flow Batteries.

LINQCELL VRB-AEM30 comes in different sizes to meet various device design requirements. Contact us for custom sizes or other specific requirements.

Mechanical Properties
Elongation
Elongation
Elongation is the process of lengthening something.

It is a percentage that measures the initial, unstressed, length compared to the length of the material right before it breaks.

It is commonly referred to as Ultimate Elongation or Tensile Elongation at break.
200 %
Tensile Strength
Tensile Strength
The tensile strength of a material is the maximum amount of tensile stress that it can withstand while being stretched or pulled before failure.

Some materials break very sharply, without plastic deformation, in what is called a brittle failure. Others, which are more ductile, including most metals, experience some plastic deformation and possibly necking before fracture.
Tensile Strength
Tensile Strength
Tensile strength determines the resistance of a material to break under tension and it measures how much elongating load (or tensile stress) it can handle before fracture.

To make it simple, it measures how much force we have to apply when pulling apart a material before it breaks.
35 MPa
