Membranes (Basel). 2017 Aug 15;7(3):44. doi: 10.3390/membranes7030044.
Membranes are important components in a number of systems, where separation and control of the flow of molecules is desirable. Controllable membranes represent an even more coveted and desirable entity and their development is considered to be the next step of development. Typically, membranes are considered on flat surfaces, but spherical capsules possess a perfect "infinite" or fully suspended membranes. Similarities and transitions between spherical and flat membranes are discussed, while applications of membranes are also emphasized.
膜是许多系统中的重要组成部分,在这些系统中,分子流的分离和控制是必要的。可控膜是一种更令人垂涎和向往的实体,其开发被认为是下一步的发展方向。通常,膜被认为是在平面上,但球形胶囊具有完美的“无限”或完全悬浮的膜。本文讨论了球形膜和平面膜之间的相似性和转变,同时也强调了膜的应用。
