Lockheed Martin
PERFORENE™ MEMBRANE
Addressing the growing demand for efficient, tailorable, cost-effective filtration solutions
Lockheed Martin’s Perforene™ Membrane
With a distinguished 100-year track record of breakthrough performance, Lockheed Martin is addressing rapidly-changing global priorities that will shape our future. Lockheed Martin is engineering a filtration solution that is readily extensible to a multitude of applications. The United States Patent and Trademark Office recently
issued Lockheed Martin a patent for the Perforene membrane’s application to water filtration
What is the Perforene membrane?
Lockheed Martin’s Perforene membrane – the thinnest membrane possible – is a perforated, one-atom thick sheet of graphene, which will feature holes that are as small as one nanometer in diameter. Integrating the Perforene membrane within a filter of a larger system, it can trap sodium, chlorine and other ions and, at the same time, dramatically improve the flow-through of water molecules and reduce clogging and pressure on the membrane and filter, as well as reduce energy usage of the larger system.
