Claims16
A process for the manufacture of a hydrogen permeable membrane in the form of a thin hydrogen-permeable metal coating of a material with a high hydrogen-permeation coefficient on a fabric of fine metal mesh, said process comprising galvanic deposition of a hydrogen-permeable metal having a high hydrogen-permeation coefficient on to a fine mesh metal fabric, said metal coating having a thickness range of about 1 to 20 microns, said fine mesh metal fabric having a mesh width of about 40 microns at the most.
A hydrogen permeable membrane comprising a metal fabric with a hydrogen-permeable metal coating galvanically deposited on and adhering to said metal fabric, wherein said metal fabric has a mesh width of about 40 microns at the most, and wherein said metal coating has a thickness range of about 1 to 20 microns.
