FKM MEA and GDE Gasket
Low Gas Crossover for Hydrogen and Oxygen Containment in Fuel Cells Reliable airtight sealing while securing electrode materials Specifications | Gallery | Literature | Related Products | Technical Support Known for its excellent chemical resistance, FKM gaskets are widely used as a seal in electrochemical setups, fuel cells, or MEA electrolyzers to prevent gas and electrolyte leakage, and maintain compression for effective electrochemical process. The low gas crossover rates of FKM are vital for hydrogen and oxygen containment in fuel cells, and its superior compression resistance and dimensional stability are useful under sustained high compression load. These FKM gaskets show good resistance to most mineral acids at moderate temperature, and also shows excellent resistance to ozone, oxidation, and weathering. However, FKM is degradable in alkaline conditions with a high concentration (>10%), steam, amines, and polar solvents at elevated temperatures with prolonged exposure. For strongly alkaline electrolytes, PTFE or EPDM gaskets are a more chemically robust choice. Acid & Mild Alkaline Stability Excellent choice to use in PEM and mild-alkaline AEM electrolyzers Low Gas Permeability Supports accurate gas-evolution tracking Reliable Reusability Strong elastomeric compression recovery supporting repeated use Precision-Cut Gasket Fits well into Ossila MEA Electrolyzers and GDE Flow Cells Specifications Material FKM Overall Dimensions 52 mm x 52 mm Available Window Dimensions 12 mm x 12 mm, 23 mm x 23 mm Pack Size 5 FKM MEA and GDE Gasket dimensions Product Gallery Previous Next Literature and Reviews J.
