You probably recognise equation 1 as the Nernst equation. This equation defines the relation between the concentrations of an ion on either side of a membrane that it perfectly selective for that ion ...

The nanogate consisted of a single nanopore that was formed in a silicon nitride membrane. The membrane was positioned in a ...

“These data allow the prediction that the highly ion-selective sPIM-SBF membrane would maintain 80% capacity performance of a practical RFB utilizing a high concentration of redox-active ...

To do that, we'll need to figure out how to select a binding site that is selective for our target ion, and how we should pattern those binding sites within the membrane material so that we can ...

The joint development agreement will accelerate the production of Pure Lithium’s patent pending lithium selective, water-blocking membranes for ... today’s lithium-ion technology in cell ...

For the development of ion-conducting polymers of intrinsic microporosity and applications ... and they contribute up to 40% of the RFB capital cost. Commercial Nafion membranes are widely used, but ...
