Abstract[English]
The present invention provides a method of fixing a membrane between a first frame member and a second frame member, the membrane having at least one property conferring incompatibility for fixing it to the first and second frame members. The method comprises: creating a fixation area comprising a first zone and a second zone, wherein creating the first zone comprises integrally bonding the first frame member to the second frame member, and wherein creating the second zone comprises mechanically deforming the membrane between the first frame member and the second frame member. There is also provided a cell stack and a use of an ion-exchange membrane in the disclosed cell stack.[French]
La présente invention concerne un procédé de fixation d'une membrane entre un premier élément de cadre et un second élément de cadre, la membrane ayant au moins une propriété lui conférant une incompatibilité pour sa fixation aux premier et second éléments de cadre. Le procédé consiste à : créer une zone de fixation comprenant une première zone et une seconde zone, la création de la première zone consistant à lier d'un seul tenant le premier élément de cadre au second élément de cadre, et la création de la seconde zone consistant à déformer mécaniquement la membrane entre le premier élément de cadre et le second élément de cadre. L'invention concerne également un empilement de cellules et l'utilisation d'une membrane échangeuse d'ions dans l'empilement de cellules selon l'invention.
