D Copper ferrocyanide
The semipermeable membranes used in the osmosis process can be an animal membrane, paper, etc. It should allow only the solvent particles and not the larger solute particles.
Traube, a German chemist, found that films of certain gelatinous precipitates, especially of cupric ferrocyanide, Cu2[Fe(CN)6], and Calcium phosphate are perfectly semipermeable membrane.
