  • Publication number: 20240145822
    Abstract: Disclosed is a secondary battery pouch film, including an outer layer, a metal layer, and a sealant layer, wherein the sealant layer includes a cast polypropylene (CPP) layer and an extruded polypropylene (PP) layer, and the secondary battery pouch film satisfies the [Equation 1] where A+B<1.354, 0.6?C. In [Equation 1], A is a value obtained by dividing a thickness of the metal layer by a total thickness of the secondary battery pouch film, B is a value obtained by dividing a thickness of the metal layer by a thickness of the sealant layer, and C is a value obtained by dividing a thickness of the extruded polypropylene (PP) layer of the sealant layer by a thickness of the cast polypropylene (CPP) layer of the sealant layer. The pouch film has excellent formability, curling, insulation, bending, and peel strength.

  • Publication number: 20240100469
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a pressure swing adsorption apparatus for hydrogen purification from decomposed ammonia gas and a hydrogen purification method using the same, and more particularly, the pressure swing adsorption apparatus of the present disclosure includes a plurality of adsorption towers including a pretreatment unit and a hydrogen purification unit wherein the adsorption towers of the pretreatment unit and the hydrogen purification unit are packed with different adsorbents, thereby achieving high purity hydrogen purification from mixed hydrogen gas produced after ammonia decomposition, making it easy to replace the adsorbent for ammonia removal, minimizing the likelihood that the lifetime of the adsorbent in the hydrogen purification unit is drastically reduced by a very small amount of ammonia, and actively responding to a large change in ammonia concentration in the raw material.
