Moleaer, the global leader in nanobubble technology, has officially announced the launch of a patent-pending process, which is designed to significantly enhance performance of lithium-ion batteries, PEM fuel cells, green hydrogen generation, and water treatment membranes.
According to certain reports, this particular innovation arrives on the scene bearing an ability to integrate nanobubbles into the thin-film fabrication process, all for the purpose of improving porosity and structural quality of films used across critical technologies like batteries, fuel cells, electrolyzers, and ultra-filtration membranes.
More on the same would reveal how such a non-invasive method should be able to unlock billions of nanobubbles into liquid coatings during production, thus optimizing pore size distribution and enhancing mixture dispersion. It further stabilizes inks, improves layer uniformity, bolsters functional surface area, as well as optimizes pore size distribution to produce films that boast consistent and controllable porosity and particle sizes.
In essence, from a collective standpoint, these improvements really go the distance to enhance efficiency, power output, and durability across clean technology sectors.
“Nanobubbles act like invisible scaffolding,” said Dr. Mohamed Abdelrahman, Senior R&D Application Engineer at Moleaer. “They improve how materials self-organize during fabrication, leading to higher-performing films with less waste and fewer defects.”
Talk about the whole technology on a slightly deeper level, we begin from its PEM fuel cell cathode catalyst layer, which plays a massive role in instigating 20% higher power output from the same active area, while simultaneously reducing size, weight, and cost per watt for applications like vehicles and portable power systems.
Next up, we have an assortment of ultrafiltration membranes coming into play that can go onto achieve 66% uptick in water permeability due to increased surface porosity and cross-sectional porosity. The stated membranes can also prove useful when the agenda is to maintain structural integrity and water quality, translating to reduced energy consumption.
Another detail worth a mention relates to the technology’s PEM water electrolyzers (green hydrogen) anode catalyst layers. These components can particularly clock 17% improvement in current density at operational voltages so to cut down on the energy and cost of green hydrogen production.
Rounding up highlights would be the availability of lithium-ion NMC cathodes, capable of scaling capacity retention and enhance performance at high C rates to support extended battery cycle life and faster charging.
Among other things, it ought be acknowledged that this patent-pending process has been independently validated and peer-reviewed, an exercise where the technology showed that nanobubbles can be precisely and reliably introduced into production lines. The stated method also successfully influenced nanoscale material organization, enhanced uniformity, minimizing defects, and improved overall thin film performance.
In case that wasn’t enough, it further proved itself to be compatible with existing coating techniques, enabling seamless adoption by manufacturers looking for performance improvements without any significant alterations.
Founded in 2016, Moleaer’s rise up the ranks stems from its patented nanobubble generators that are best-known for delivering the most efficient gas-to-liquid transfer and nanobubble production available. The mechanism in question can come in handy to accelerate physical, chemical and biological processes across industries.
The scale of company’s can also be understood once you consider it has over 3,500 systems deployed in more than 55 countries.
“Thin films are foundational to clean energy and water technologies, yet traditional manufacturing methods limit how much performance we can unlock from them,” said Nick Dyner, CEO of Moleaer. “Our nanobubble-enabled process addresses those limitations, without changing formulas or processes, delivering gains in power, efficiency, and sustainability.”
