Description

Panpan Guan and co-authors design a better membrane for energy devices in a 2026 study. The membrane lets protons pass in water splitting units and flow batteries. Its flaw is that hydrogen gas and metal ions also leak across, which wastes fuel and storage. The team layered thin sheets of a flat material into the membrane coating.

The layers force gas and ions down winding paths while protons still move freely. Lab tests cut hydrogen leak by a large share and slowed metal ion crossing as well. A water splitting unit ran steady for long periods with lower gas leak. A flow battery kept far more of its charge over hundreds of cycles than a plain membrane.
