Abstract
Official abstract text for this publication.
Disclosed herein are ion exchange membranes, electrochemical systems, and methods that relate to various configurations of the ion exchange membranes and other components of the electrochemical cell.
First claim
Opening claim text (preview).
What is claimed is: 1. An ion exchange membrane (IEM), comprising: an ionomer membrane with a built-in separator wherein one or more sections of the built-in separator protrude out from front and back surfaces of the ionomer membrane, wherein the built-in separator is a mesh. 2. The ion exchange membrane of claim 1 , wherein amplitude of the protrusion is from 0.01 mm-1 mm. 3. The ion exchange membrane of claim 2 , wherein wavelength of the amplitude of the protrusion is from 0.5 mm-50 mm. 4. The ion exchange membrane of claim 1 , wherein an average thickness of the ionomer membrane is from 10 um-250 um. 5. The ion exchange membrane of claim 1 , wherein the built-in separator is made of polypropylene.
