DECNAHED Development of Composite Nanomaterials for Hydrogen Energy Devices

Coordinator: LATVIJAS UNIVERSITATES CIETVIELU FIZIKAS INSTITUTS (LV)

This project will deal with development of new materials for emerging hydrogen and fuel cell technologies using nanotechnology approach. Main focus will be to develop low price novel composite inorganic/polymer membranes for electrolyser and fuel cell (PEM/DMFC) applications. The basic approach is to use a novel procedure for double cross-linking of sulfonated PEEK in order to improve the membrane stability and electrochemical performance in FC (patent application is submitted). The synthesis procedure is simple and it will not involve any expensive, and harmful and corrosive components. The …

About Seventh Framework Programme (2007–2013)

The Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) ran from 2007 to 2013 and was the EU's main research-funding instrument of that period. It mobilised roughly €50 billion across cooperation projects, ERC frontier grants, Marie Curie fellowships, capacity-building actions and Euratom research. FP7 closed to new calls in 2013 but its projects continued for years after under their original grant agreements.

EU contribution: €100k awarded to the consortium. The project runs over approximately 4 years from 2008-10-01 to 2012-09-30.
