OUR SPECIALTY POLYMERS CAN SUPPORT THE HYDROGEN REVOLUTION
The products of SABIC’s Specialties Business can enable the Hydrogen revolution all the way from the energy production, conversion of hydrogen, to the final use such as in fuel cells, electrolyzers and its infrastructure.
PERFORMANCE The cleanliness and stability of our lightweight specialty polymers can potentially help to overcome failures caused by the poisoning of fuel cell and membrane materials.
EFFICIENCY Our specialty polymers can offer design freedom, function integration and reduction of production steps when compared to other (multi)-materials.
COSTS Replacing metals by our specialty polymer solutions may help to reduce corrosion- related costs, extend lifetime, and offer a lower production cost.
POTENTIAL SPECIALTY POLYMER SOLUTIONS FOR FUEL CELL
As commonly known in the industry, many of these examples related to fuel cell applications are illustrative and translatable for possible solutions in Electrolyzer applications, although decision making will be (partly) driven by other factors.
CASING
The STAT-KON product line can offer durability and stable performance for potential use in casings. These performances are on top of the typical requirements like strength & stiffness, shielding and processability.

POTENTIAL SPECIALTY POLYMER SOLUTIONS FOR PERIPHERAL COMPONENTS
HYDROGEN AND OXIDANT (AIR) DELIVERY
The systems delivering the (purified) hydrogen fuel and the oxidant (usually oxygen or air) to the fuel cell stack, include pumps, valves and o-rings. NORYL™ resin grades offer inert and chemical resistant materials with improved heat performance when compared to incumbent.
• NORYL AP2001G resin (PU formulation)
• NORYL GTX830 resin
• NORYL GFN3 resin
WATER MANAGEMENT SYSTEM
The system managing the water stream in the fuel cell and electrolyzer stack includes, but are not limited to, humidifiers, condensers, piping, fittings. The thermal and mechanical performance of SABIC’s Specialty solutions make them well-suited for such application.
• NORYL GTX830 resin
• ULTEM™ 2300 resin
• LNP™ OFC08XXP resin
• NORYL GFN3 resin
THERMAL MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS
The system maintaining the optimal operating temperature of the fuel cell stack includes heat exchangers, coolers, and pumps. SABIC’s KONDUIT™ resin grades offer excellent thermal stability, thermal conductivity and mechanical performance.
• KONDUIT resin
• LNP™ XHT2141
HOUSINGS, TRAYS, FASTENERS
For auxiliary applications like housings, trays and fasteners, various light-weight high-temperature polymers are available offering strength, toughness, ductility, and corrosion-resistance.
• NORYL™ GTX830 resin
• ULTEM™ 2300 resin
• LNP™ OFC08XXP resin
SENSORS
Water purification is important to ensure high efficiency and prevent poisoning of the fuel cell.
• ULTEM 2300 resin
POWER CONDITIONING SYSTEM
The system regulating the voltage and current of the electrical output from the fuel cell stack includes power inverters, converters, including DC/AC convertors. SABIC Specialties business has a range of products that have the potential to be suitable for these applications
• NORYL GTX830 resin
• ULTEM 2300 resin
• LNP OFC08XXP resin
