Stable inductive effect in MXene/GO membrane during the ion diffusion process

A series of MXene/GO (MXGO) membranes were prepared in this paper. The inductive signals appear in membrane during ion diffusion. Electrochemical techniques were used to examine the effects of different samples on the diffusion of ions in membranes. It is shown that the ion permeability and inductance effects of the membrane can be controlled by the mass ratio of the MXene and GO nanosheets. Moreover, the membrane of MX50%GO membrane exhibited more stable inductive effect compared to other samples. This could be contributed to the interlocking between MXene and GO nanosheets, effectively enhancing the stability of the membrane. Additionally, artificial neural network was employed to analyze the experimental results and predict the variation of inductors of the present system in different conditions. It suggests MX50%GO should be the first choice as an inductor for the present system. This inductive effect could be applied to evaluate the ion diffusion in the membrane. Graphical abstract
