Morgan Advanced Materials is an industry leader in developing insulation solutions for residential, commercial, industrial, marine, data centres fuel cells.
Harnessing our top-class design expertise and specialist manufacturing capabilities, we work in partnership to develop competitive tailored solutions to meet the increasingly challenging and changing demands of the fuel cell market. We are at the forefront of technology, offering dedicated engineering services at every stage of your project, from design specification to material selection, to deliver complete insulation systems.
The Thermal Ceramics business of Morgan Advanced Materials manufactures a wide range of low thermal conductivity, lightweight and adaptable insulation solutions which enable maximum utilisation of available space, allow for a more compact design of your application and drastically reduce installation times.
Main Fuel Cell applications of Morgan products include:
- Hot box insulation and design
The high temperature operational requirement of SOFC, SOEC and MCFC fuel cell (600°C –900°C) can be effectively solved with the Morgan WDS® product range. Morgan WDS Microporous Granulate and WDS Ultra® and Nextra® Boards are primarily used for this part of the cell, effectively reducing external shell temperature to as low as 50°C, maximising heat loss and optimising stack performance. In addition to class leading insulation solutions, Morgan’s engineering and manufacturing capabilities provide full design, testing and prototype manufacturing solutions with regards to the design and heat loss simulation analysis of the hot box.
- Balance of plant
WDS Microporous, our fibre based high temperature, high performance Superwool® and EST™ and Pipe Insulation materials provide thermal management to high temperature fuel cells.
- Reformers
Morgan materials address the unique challenges posed by small residential PEMFC units.
In applications where space is at a premium, the use of conventional insulation materials is, in most cases, not feasible. To tackle such challenges and complex design requirements, Morgan WDS Microporous Granulate and WDS Ultra and Nextra Boards offer the right solutions for such applications.
Benefitting from our global manufacturing footprint, consolidated experience and technical expertise, Morgan Advanced Materials fully supports customers in designing the most effective and safe logistics solution for each application – from transportation to storage and production line use:
- Flexible and custom packaging
- Silo transportation
- On-site storage
- Flowability analysis
- Densification analysis
- Grain size distribution analysis
- Bulk density analysis
