Introduction

Materials and component testing is used to evaluate the performance of key materials and structural units in electrochemical systems. It is essential to system efficiency and stability. We conduct systematic tests on catalysts, membranes, electrodes, and key components under conditions close to real operation, ensuring that the resulting data are relevant for engineering applications. Rather than focusing solely on material properties, we emphasize performance under realistic conditions and compatibility with the overall system. Through integrated analysis of material performance, structural design, and operating conditions, we provide a reliable foundation for stack design and system integration.

Flow Field & Bipolar Plate Validation


Introduction

Flow field design and bipolar plate structure directly affect reactant distribution, current conduction, and system pressure drop. They are key factors in electrochemical system performance and uniformity control. A well-designed flow channel structure determines the distribution efficiency of gases and liquids at the reaction interface, while also influencing overall energy consumption and operational stability.

Material-System Compatibility Analysis


Introduction

Material-system compatibility analysis is used to evaluate how key materials perform under actual system operating conditions. It is an important step in bridging material performance and system design. Material properties alone do not directly predict system-level behavior, as operating conditions, structural design, and integration methods all significantly affect performance.


Key Functions

Material-operating condition compatibility
Material-structure compatibility
Material-system integration assessment
Operating envelope and limitation identification
Engineering selection and optimization
