• Description
  • Specification
CeTech's carbon paper is specially developed for PEMFC and DMFC fuel cell applications and has consistently maintained a good performance in fuel cell efficiency tests. This 2nd generation of carbon substrate has been well developed, and the new substrate is presented with better performance and properties.

GDL240 is a carbon paper with Microporous Layer (MPL) and has a total thickness of 0.24mm. It is a low-cost alternative to conventional carbon paper Gas Diffusion Layer (GDL) materials.

Advantages of Carbon Paper with Microporous Layer (MPL):
Heat transfer during cell operation
Automated QC inspection system
Keep some water on the surface for conductivity
Avoid "flooding"
