Fraunhofer Institute for 
Tailor-made solutions for your separation applications
The selective separation of mixtures of substances (membranes), electrodes (separators in batteries), and ions (diaphragms in electrolysers) is a challenge in numerous processes in industrial and technical applications. Whether the aim is to allow substances to pass through or to retain them in a targeted manner, the most efficient solution to these problems is membranes (for mixtures of substances), separators (for charge carriers), and diaphragms (for charges).
In our department, we combine extensive expertise with innovative concepts from polymer chemistry, materials science, and processing technologies to offer you targeted solutions for complex problems. Benefit from our extensive capabilities for developing new membranes, separators, and diaphragms that are specifically adapted and manufactured for your applications.
