ePTFE Mechanically Reinforced Anion Exchange Membrane,Ligand is based on MPIP

Catalog Number	ACMA00062906
Description	This is a mechanically reinforced anion exchange membrane and the mechanical reinforcement is based on ePTFE (also known as expanded PTFE). The Alkaline Anion Exchange Membrane with PTFE support for easier handleability and greater strength. Presence of the mechanical reinforcement increases the mechanical strength and also reduces swelling or physical dimension change compared to self-supporting counterparts. It is moderately basic (i.e., alkaline) and designed for use with supporting electrolyte.
Application	The membrane has reduced swelling and reduced metal crossover. It can be used in aqueous and some non-aqueous solvents such as propylene carbonate, and has potential to be used in flow-battery and many other applications.
Notice For Use	This anion membrane is supplied in dry form with the counterion being chloride anion. For applications that require the membrane to transfer OH- (or hydroxyl ions), it has to be converted to the hydroxide form by exposing them to a strong base. It is recommended to soak the membrane in a large bath of 1M KOH for 24 hours in order to convert the membrane from chloride form into the hydroxide form.
