Semipermeablena
Semipermeablena is a term encountered in theoretical discussions and some speculative literature to describe a class of materials or membranes that exhibit selective permeability. In its broad sense, a semipermeablena would allow certain solvent molecules or small solutes to pass through while restricting larger solutes or ions, thereby enabling targeted separation without complete barrier formation. The concept is used mainly as a conceptual framework rather than a standardized material category in peer‑reviewed science.
Proposed properties include tunable pore size, control of surface charge, and responsive polymers that change permeability
Real-world membranes already studied include semipermeable lipid bilayers and a variety of polymeric or ceramic membranes.
