For instance, CO\u2082 can be captured and converted into valuable products through electrochemical CO\u2082 reduction (eCO\u2082R). A key challenge in this method is the permeability of its central component \u2013 the polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM).<br><br>In this joint project between Aalto University and Liquidsun, the effect of layer-by-layer (LbL) polyelectrolyte coatings on polymer electrolyte membranes is investigated. The goal is to enhance the performance of eCO\u2082R systems, thereby facilitating the commercialization of the technology.
