  • Publication number: 20240024826
    Abstract: Nanoporous selective sol-gel ceramic membranes, selective-membrane structures, and related methods are described. Representative ceramic selective membranes include ion-conductive membranes (e.g., proton-conducting membranes) and gas selective membranes. Representative uses for the membranes include incorporation into fuel cells and redox flow batteries (RFB) as ion-conducting membranes.
    Type: Application
    Filed: April 7, 2023
    Publication date: January 25, 2024
    Applicant: University of Washington
    Inventors: Gregory M. Newbloom, Aaron F. West, Ryan Kastilani, Canfeng Wei, Jaime Rodriguez, Lilo D. Pozzo, Lauren Martin
