Throughout the hydrogen value chain, a wide range of metallic and non-metallic materials are used to serve many different purposes. Their selection is based on numerous factors, such as material properties, availability, and cost, as well as process conditions and other requirements concerning strength, weight, temperature, pressure, corrosion resistance, conductivity, etc. In this section you can find news items related to the materials used in all equipment associated with water electrolysis, hydrogen transport, storage, and processing. If you would like to see your news release published here and in our email newsletter, please feel free to contact Matjaž Matošec.
The latest results from NewHydrogen’s research show significant progress toward the goal of producing low-cost green hydrogen. Electrolyzers currently rely on expensive rare materials. The company is focused on developing electrolyzer catalysts that are cheaper and better.
De Nora and H2U Technologies have announced a joint development agreement to assess the viability of newly identified non-platinum group metal catalysts for water electrolysis. Through their partnership, De Nora will help bring H2U’s earth-abundant catalysts to the electrolyzer market.
The Research Council of Norway is investing more than €20 million in HYDROGENi, a new centre for environment-friendly energy research (FME) dedicated to hydrogen and ammonia. The centre has enlisted a strong cluster of over 50 industrial and academic partners.
Pressurized pipelines are seen as one means of hydrogen transport. With this in mind, Tenaris has carried out an experimental activity to qualify medium- and large-diameter pipes for high-pressure gaseous hydrogen transportation with a hydrogen content of up to 100% at 200 bar.
NewHydrogen is developing a breakthrough electrolyzer technology to lower the cost of green hydrogen production.
Toray Advanced Composites, together with partners from industry and academia, has been awarded funding from the Dutch Ministry of Economic Affairs and Climate Policy’s Research and Development for Mobility scheme for the development of a long-life, fully composite liquid hydrogen (LH2) tank for civil aviation.
Sandvik has signed an agreement to acquire Gerling GmbH, a precision tube engineering company serving multiple industries, including the fast-developing hydrogen market.
Researchers at the Max-Planck Institute have discovered a way to stop hydrogeninduced cracks in high-strength steels.
How does nickel enable us to get a grip on technology when the thermometer ominously descends towards the absolute minimum?
Hydrogen fuel derived from seawater could be an abundant and sustainable alternative to fossil fuels, but the potential energy carrier has been limited by technical challenges, including how to practically harvest it.
