Fuel cells are a key technology that utilise a continuous supply of hydrogen fuel, and they form a cornerstone of clean energy goals. PI-KEM supplies a comprehensive range of high-purity materials for Solid Oxide Fuel Cell (SOFC) and Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cell (SOEC) research, development and manufacturing.
Solid Oxide Fuel Cells generate electricity by converting the chemical energy stored in hydrogen and other fuels directly into electrical energy with high efficiency, low emissions and excellent fuel flexibility. Operating in reverse, Solid Oxide Electrolyser Cells use electricity to split water into hydrogen and oxygen, providing an efficient route to sustainable hydrogen production.
Working with leading international suppliers, we provide specialist powders, electrolytes and conductive materials that enable researchers and manufacturers to develop the next generation of efficient hydrogen and clean energy technologies. Our portfolio includes nickel-based anode materials, lanthanum-based cathode and interconnect powders, solid electrolytes and proton-conducting ceramics specifically selected for SOFC and SOEC applications.
Alongside our most popular product ranges, we can also source novel and bespoke materials through our trusted supplier network to support emerging research requirements.
In addition to electrochemical materials, PI-KEM offers advanced ceramics parts for cell components, precious metals for catalysts and current collectors, as well as high-temperature coatings, adhesives, sealants and conductive materials, suitable for demanding operating environments.
