MOTT CORPORATION POROUS METAL IN
FUEL CELLS AND HYDROGEN SEPARATION
Mott Receives Grant

FARMINGTON, CT (March 2007) – Mott Corporation announced last week that it has received a grant from the Connecticut Small Business Innovation Research Office for the development of porous metal membranes for use in various fuel cell technologies. The grant, which is funded through the Connecticut Development Authority and the Governor’s Office for Workforce Competitiveness, was designed to promote emerging nanotechnologies and new product development by small businesses in Connecticut.

Mott is a global leader in creating engineered solutions using sintered porous metal for a variety of fuel cell and hydrogen separation applications. Our porous metal has been used as membrane supports (e.g., in electrolyzers), gas filters, spargers (e.g., for gas humidification), and in many novel ways in unique designs.

Mott produces products in various media grades and alloys, including titanium, Hastelloy®, Inconel® and 316L stainless steel. The precisely controlled porosity of Mott’s porous metal offers uniform permeability and particle retention, and useful properties such as capillary attraction for wicking applications. The unique nature of the porous structures coupled with the attributes of metal alloys such as high strength, high temperature and corrosion resistance make Mott materials ideally suited for these alternative energy applications.
