Description

Due to its ease of access and low investment cost, additive manufacturing (AM) is now a technology widely used in diverse fields. This technology has opened up a vast range of possibilities on different levels such as an extended product life, shortened value chains, improved resource efficiency, and made the production of customised products accessible.
In this study, a novel approach using AM to generate electrically conductive porous media for electrochemical applications is described. The AM technique used here is called fused deposition modelling (FDM) which consists of the extrusion of material through a nozzle, which is deposited in successive layers to create a 3D object.
The 3D printed parts can be used in different electrochemical devices, such as the gas diffusion layer in fuel cells or in redox flow batteries.
