Trimetaspheres for Ion Selective Membranes

摘要

An ion selective membrane is provided where the membrane has improved ionic conductivity and mobility at elevated temperatures. The ion selective membrane includes a metallofullerene, where the metallofullerene may be a trimetasphere. The metallofullerene is incorporated into membrane materials that can withstand elevated temperatures, where the metallofullerene improves ionic conductivity and mobility therein.
