Iyonosferin

Iyonosferin is a fictional or hypothetical chemical entity described in speculative science and science fiction as a class of molecules capable of facilitating ion transport in highly ionized environments. There is no consensus in real-world science about its existence, and no peer-reviewed evidence confirms a substance by this name.

In theoretical and fictional contexts, iyonosferin is often depicted as a small, redox-active carrier with some ion-selective properties. Proposed characteristics include the ability to operate across gas-phase or plasma interfaces, stability under ultraviolet radiation, and reversible redox states that allow binding and releasing ions such as protons or metal ions. Descriptions vary, with some accounts presenting it as a synthetic polymer analogue or as a bioinspired molecule that can function in extreme atmospheric or laboratory plasma conditions.

Occurrence and origin in these accounts are also variable. Some narratives imagine iyonosferin as a laboratory-created compound designed for studies of ion transport, while others place it as a hypothetical metabolite or engineered product in living or semi-living systems. In either case, the concept remains speculative and not supported by experimental observation in real atmospheric, chemical, or biological systems.

Synthesis and detection are not established in reality; no confirmed synthesis, isolation, or measurement of iyonosferin exists in the scientific literature. As a result, its proposed properties and applications are inherently speculative and primarily of interest within theoretical models or fictional contexts rather than demonstrated science.
