AC Area Resistance and Conductivity

Through-Plane Area Resistance and Conductivity of cation-exchange and anion-exchange membranes at alternating current. Most commonly used method recommended in AFNOR-NF X45 standard to characterize conductivity of the membrane polymer and electric resistance of a membrane as key characteristics for material selection and estimation of  process energy consumption. 

Ion Transport Number 

Permselectivity and apparent transport number of ions in ion-exchange membranes via Donnal potential difference—so-called electro-motive force (e.m.f.) measurement. Common  method characterizing permselectivity, suggested in AFNOR-NF X45 standard and referenced in data-sheets of many commercial membranes.

Electrochemical Impedance Spectroscopy (EIS) and Current-Voltage Curves (CVC) 

EIS allows differentiating impedance of the interface region and that of monopolar layers—extremely important information in the development of bipolar membranes.

Diffusion Permeability Test Cell

Diffusion permeability of an electrolyte or neutral molecules through the membrane under concentration gradient. 

Water Permeability under pressure gradient 

Water Permeability under Transmembrane Pressure Difference. Examples: evaluate possible defects or microporosity of e.g. heterogeneous ion-exchange membranes measure pressure diffusion in homogeneous polymer membranes.

Spacers

Mass Transfer Coefficient 

Measurement of Mass Transfer Coefficient in a spacer-filled channel flown by a liquid at different flow velocities allows comparison of different spacer materials to be used in the membrane processes
