β¦ Synopsis
The Rensselaer research is going well -so well that Celanese recently delivered nearly 90 kg (200 lb) of a special monomer used to create polybenzimidazole (PBI), which Benicewicz is studying for fuel cell use. He says the monomer is available commercially, but not in the quality and purity that is available to Celanese. He adds: 'If we were to buy the equivalent quantity of monomer from a standard supply housewhich only sells it in very small amounts -it would cost more than $400 000.' Celanese has also contributed $2m to the R&D program for fuel cell research at the center.

Cooperation on fuel cells between TOFC and RisΓΈ goes back many years. The location of RisΓΈ less than an hour's drive from the TOFC offices ensures unhindered and dynamic interaction between the scientists of the two partners. The renewal of the agreement is a natural continuation of the successful p
