SS / Ti Porous Plates

Sintered porous plates in 316L stainless steel or pure titanium, supplied as flat cut-to-size blanks or precision-machined to customer drawings. Same material and pore size range as the tubular porous components.

Titanium plates up to 600 × 400 mm; SS plates up to 300 × 300 mm; thickness 0.5–20 mm (Ti) or 0.5–10 mm (SS). Plates can be cut to precise shapes — round, rectangular, or irregular — by wire-EDM, laser cutting, or milling, with hole patterns, slots, or custom profiles machined after sintering.

For PEM electrolyzer applications, titanium porous plates serve as current collector and gas diffusion layer simultaneously. Porosity (30–45%) and pore size are specified to the individual stack design, and surface finish (Ra) is measured and certified for each batch. The sintered structure resists hydrogen embrittlement under cathodic charging, and the as-sintered surface is smooth enough for low-resistance electrical contact without additional polishing.

For electrocatalysis research, plates are available with a ruthenium-iridium oxide (Ru-Ir, MMO) coating or platinum coating — typically 8–12 µm on a 100 × 100 mm format — for bifunctional oxygen and hydrogen evolution catalyst studies. Coating is applied on customer request and is quoted separately.

Product Features

What Sets These Porous Plates Apart

Ti Plates for PEM Electrolyzer

Porous titanium plates for current collection and gas diffusion in PEM water electrolysis. Stable at anode potentials where carbon-based GDLs corrode, with inherent resistance to hydrogen embrittlement under cathodic charging.

Precision Cut to Drawing

Waterjet and wire-EDM cutting to complex shapes, with hole patterns, slots, and machined profiles. Tolerances to ±0.1 mm.

Large-Format Ti Plates

Titanium plates up to 600 × 400 mm — significantly larger than SS plates — available in single-piece format without joins.

Porosity and Surface Records

Porosity measurement and Ra surface finish records available on request for PEM-grade titanium plates.

Catalyst-Coated Plates (On Request)

Ru-Ir oxide (MMO) or platinum coating available on titanium plates for electrocatalysis research. Specified and quoted separately on customer request.

Full Material Documentation

Mill test reports, chemical composition, and CoC available for every batch. Dimensions and porosity inspection records on request.
