MEMBRANE-SEAL ASSEMBLY

摘要

A reinforced membrane-seal assembly, the reinforced membrane-seal assembly comprising: an inner region and a border region and wherein the inner region comprises ion-conducting component and the border region comprises seal component; wherein first and second planar porous reinforcing components each extend across the inner region into the border region and wherein the pores of each of the first and second planar porous reinforcing components in the inner region are impregnated with ion-conducting component and the pores of each of the first and second planar porous reinforcing components in the border region are impregnated with seal component is disclosed. Also disclosed is a catalyst-coated reinforced membrane-seal assembly, a reinforced membrane-seal electrode assembly and an electrochemical device comprising the reinforced membrane-seal assembly.
