The sensing membrane comprises polymer or co-polymer backbone, ionophore to transport the target ion from an aqueous medium into a hydrophobic phase, and lipophilic salt to create ionic site. In recent years, the possibility to improve the potentiometric detection was demonstrated by doping membrane with ion-exchanger such as quaternary ammonium salts.

Traditionally, ISE sensor membrane is based on hydrophobic plasticized polymeric membranes or films that are doped with ionophore and plasticizer as matrix softening agent.
