Electrical currents trigger oxidation or reduction reactions in conducting polymers. Changes in volume associated with these redox processes can be transformed into macroscopic movements of more than 180" by the construction of a bilayer: polypyrrole-flexible and inactive polymer (artificial muscle)

The transport of cations (Na+ K+ and Ca\*+) through a conducting polymer membrane is demonstrated. Transport was achieved by the application of a potential gradient across the membrane. The results have far reaching significance in the development of tailored membranes for separation technology.
