Aquivion® E98-09S is a chemically-stabilized (denoted by S-suffix) perfluorosulfonic acid (PFSA) ionomer membrane that exhibits an Equivalent Weight (EW) of 980 g/eq. Nominal thickness is 90 microns. Aquivion® PFSA ionomer membranes are melt-extruded products based on the unique Short Side Chain copolymer of Tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) and Sulfonyl Fluoride Vinyl Ether (SFVE) F2C=CF-O-CF2CF2-SO2F produced by Solvay. They are available in the acid form and feature a lower Equivalent Weight (EW) than most commercial proton exchange membranes. The unique Short Side Chain copolymer allows higher crystallinity, improved mechanical properties and better proton conductivity. Typical applications include PEM fuel cells, water electrolyzers, separators for hydrogen or redox flow batteries, and pervaporation or gas humidification systems. |

HEALTH, SAFETY AND ENVIRONMENT Aquivion® PFSA membranes are not harmful if used and handled according to standard processing procedures (see for example the "Guide to the Safe Handling of Fluoropolymer Resins" issued by the Society of the Plastics Industry). If handled improperly, membranes may release harmful toxic chemicals. Please refer to the Material Safety Data Sheets for more information on handling and safety. PACKAGING, SHIPMENT AND STORAGE The membranes are usually available in sheets of customized formats or rolls in various lengths (dimensions are based on dry product conditioned at 23 °C and 50 % Relative Humidity). They are sealed in an inert environment with a multilayer protection film before packaging inside a shock-protected cardboard box. It is recommended to store the product in a clean, controlled humidity environment and protected from direct sun light or other sources of heat. |
