2D Patterned Ion‐Exchange Membranes Induce Electroconvection
Read the full article here: Adv. Mater. Interfaces 2018, 1801309 Concentration polarization is a diffusion-limited phenomenon for ion transport in electrodialysis based desalination processes. Once a so-called limiting current is reached, the resistance of the system rises notably manifested as a plateau region in the current–voltage curves. For long
it is hypothesized that altering the surface properties of the membrane
can overcome the diffusional transport limitation by
