ionysis

ionysis provides cutting-edge PFAS-free catalyst coated membranes (CCMs) for enhanced performance and sustainability in electrochemical applications. Our vision is the decarbonization of industry and heavy-duty transportation though innovative electrochemistry by respecting all planetary boundaries.

Electrochemical technologies like fuel cells and electrolysers are pivotal for the energy transition, yet they are limited by current catalyst coated membranes (CCMs) that fall short in efficiency, temperature stability, and environmental sustainability. The widespread reliance on PFSA/Nafion materials also raises cost and regulatory concerns due to their fluorinated chemistry.

ionysis tackles these challenges by developing and manufacturing PFAS-free CCMs based on novel hydrocarbon materials. Their CCMs not only match but exceed the performance of conventional solutions, enabling more efficient and sustainable electrochemical systems. With an innovative and cost-efficient coating process, ionysis sets a new benchmark for next-generation hydrogen and carbon conversion technologies.

„There is an unprecedented urgency to transform our economies and get to Net Zero. A strong Climate Tech ecosystem can serve as a catalyst for all those working towards this common goal and accelerate the individual efforts.“
