Metallikalvons

Metallikalvons, also known as metallic membranes, are thin layers of metal that can be manufactured with controlled porosity or specific surface properties. These membranes are created through various techniques, including electrodeposition, sputtering, or by using templates. The resulting structures can exhibit unique electrical, optical, and catalytic characteristics depending on the metal used and the fabrication method.

The applications of metallikalvons are diverse. In catalysis, their high surface area and metallic nature can facilitate chemical reactions, making them useful in industrial processes and environmental remediation. They can also be employed in sensor technology, where changes in their electrical or optical properties in response to specific analytes can be detected. Furthermore, metallikalvons find use in separation technologies, such as gas separation or microfiltration, due to their precise pore sizes. Their electrical conductivity also makes them candidates for use in flexible electronics and energy storage devices. Research continues to explore novel fabrication methods and new applications for these versatile metallic structures.
