Product Summary
The UAM4000 is a compact desktop ultrasonic spray coating system designed for fuel cell R&D laboratories. It enables precise catalyst coating on PEM membranes, GDL microporous layers, and MEA samples. With 120kHz high-frequency soft atomization, it prevents membrane damage and ensures ultra-uniform coating (CV ≤3%). The system supports low-platinum and platinum-free catalyst formulations, making it ideal for academic research and small-batch production.
High Uniformity
Coating uniformity with CV ≤3% and precise thickness control from 20nm to 100μm, enabling stable three-phase reaction interfaces.
Non-Destructive Atomization
120kHz high-frequency ultrasonic soft atomization without high-pressure impact prevents membrane wrinkling, bubbling, and breakage.
Compact Design
Desktop integrated footprint fits into small clean labs without civil renovation.
Multi-Formula Compatibility
Wide compatibility with water- and alcohol-based catalyst slurries, self-cleaning anti-clogging nozzle for rapid formula switching.
