About Us
eFiber Innovations, LLC was formed to commercialize new nanofiber-based membranes and electrodes with breakthrough performance characteristics for energy, electrochemical and separation applications. The company utilizes intellectual property coming out of the laboratory of Peter Pintauro in the School of Engineering at Vanderbilt University.
eFiber Innovations has developed new and innovative designs for fuel cell and battery electrodes, bipolar membranes, and reinforced ion-exchange membrane. These products surpass the performance and durability characteristic of existing materials and can be manufactured at reasonable cost. Our Products can be used in water reclamation and industrial separation processes, H₂/air fuel cells, redox flow batteries, electrolyzers and electrochemical reactors, sensors, and actuators and other electromechanical devices.
Peter N. Pintauro is the H. Eugene McBrayer Professor of Chemical Engineering at Vanderbilt University and the founder of eFiber Innovations, LLC. For over 35 years he has been engage in academic research in the fields of electrochemical engineering, chemical engineering, and membrane science. Most recently, he has been focusing his work on the use of nanofiber electrospinning to fabricate new membranes and electrodes. He is a Fellow of the Electrochemical Society and the American Institute of Chemical Engineers and was the 2018 recipient of the U.S. Department of Energy’s Fuel Cell R&D award.
