HyperSolar Reports Record Time for Hydrogen Production
The Company's Patent Pending Polymer Coating Applied to a
Bromine Electrode in a Wireless Solar Powered Particle Allows
Continuous Production of Renewable Hydrogen for 170 Hours
SANTA BARBARA, CA--(Marketwired - Jun 30, 2014) -
HyperSolar, Inc. (OTCQB: HYSR), the developer of a
breakthrough technology to produce renewable hydrogen using
sunlight and water, announced today that its patent pending polymer
coating, when applied to a bromine electrode in a wireless solar
powered particle, resulted in 170 continuous hours of hydrogen
production, one of the longest duration applications of wireless
hydrogen production on record.
The test conducted by members of the company's research team at
the University of California, Santa Barbara (UCSB) confirms the
possibility of commercializing a process for the direct conversion
of sunlight into valuable chemicals and fuels. Solar to chemical
conversion (artificial photosynthesis) has the advantage in that
the energy storage challenges associated with photovoltaics are
eliminated. The company's goal is to efficiently convert solar
energy into hydrogen.
"Our UCSB research team is continuing its work to reach the
ultimate milestone of achieving 1.5 open volts required to
successfully split water molecules into hydrogen and oxygen.
Meanwhile, we are very encouraged to learn that our patent pending
polymer coating will allow the process to occur," said Tim Young,
CEO of HyperSolar.
HyperSolar's technology is based on the concept of developing a
low-cost, submersible hydrogen production particle that can split
water molecules using sunlight without any other external systems
or resources -- acting as artificial photosynthesis. A video of an
early proof-of-concept prototype can be viewed at
http://hypersolar.com/application.php. The company announced
earlier this year that it had achieved 1.2 open circuit voltage
progressing towards its goal of 1.5 open volts.
About HyperSolar, Inc.
HyperSolar is developing a breakthrough, low cost technology to
make renewable hydrogen using sunlight and any source of water,
including seawater and wastewater. Unlike hydrocarbon fuels, such
as oil, coal and natural gas, where carbon dioxide and other
contaminants are released into the atmosphere when used, hydrogen
fuel usage produces pure water as the only byproduct. By optimizing
the science of water electrolysis at the nano-level, our low cost
nanoparticles mimic photosynthesis to efficiently use sunlight to
separate hydrogen from water, to produce environmentally friendly
renewable hydrogen. Using our low cost method to produce renewable
hydrogen, we intend to enable a world of distributed hydrogen
production for renewable electricity and hydrogen fuel cell
vehicles. To learn more about HyperSolar, please visit our
