Over the last few years, membrane development has intensified and numerous new developments have been reported [10]. This increase in the interest in novel proton-conducting membranes for fuel cell applications has resulted in several studies and review publications on the overall subject and also on some related topics (e.g., nonfluorinated membranes). The content of these reviews has been used and is cited in the appropriate sections.

The use of LLC-based membrane systems is still in its infancy. Promising early results indicate that research in this field will be expanded. The applications outlined here are just a few where functional LLC materials might be implemented. More challenging separation materials, such as water desalination membranes, selective proton-conducting membranes for fuel cells, catalytic membranes, chromatography, and chiral separation media are perhaps future candidates for new LLC membrane materials.
