Description
Overview
GORE® M735.18 Proton Exchange Membrane is an ePTFE-reinforced proton exchange membrane developed for PEM fuel cell applications requiring high mechanical durability, low gas crossover, and reliable long-term performance.
With a nominal thickness of 18 μm, M735.18 provides increased structural robustness and dimensional stability compared with thinner membrane grades. Its reinforced membrane architecture helps limit hydrogen crossover while supporting stable proton conduction under demanding operating conditions.
M735.18 is particularly suitable for automotive, heavy-duty mobility, stationary power, and other PEM fuel cell systems where membrane durability, operational reliability, and extended service life are key design priorities.
