I believe you are referring to phospholipids. They form a bilayer around the plasma membrane of the cell to keep the cellular contents in and selectively allow things to come in and out of the cell.
The plasma membrane is the limiting membrane of a cell. It is called Phospholipid Bilayer because it consists of proteins and lipids.
plasma membrane is made of a bilayer of lipids (or phospholipids) and protiens located inside and outside the same.
It's between two proteins
4 major parts of a plasma membrane * proteins * lipid bilayer * carbohydrates * cholesterol
Phospholipids are lipids that are essential to cells because they make up cell membranes. When phospholipids are added to water, they self-assemble into double-layered aggregates, or bilayers, that shield their hydrophobic portions from water. The phospholipid bilayer forms a boundary between the cell and its external environment.

The membrane is made up of a bilayer (two layers) of phospholipids.

The phospholipid bilayer forms a boundary between the cell and its external environment.
The framework of the cell membrane is formed by the lipid bilayer. The lipid bilayer is composed of two layers of fat cells organized in two sheets. This is what provides the barrier that makes the boundaries of the cell.
The plasma membrane is flexible and is made up of organic molecules called lipids and proteins .
Bilayer of phospholipids
phosolipid
The double layer of phospholipids is called the phospholipid bilayer. It forms the basis of every membrane, both the plasma membrane and all internal membranes.The idea that the bilayer has protein molecules embedded in it is the essence of the fluid mosaic model of the cell membrane.
The capacity of lipids to associate and maintain a bilayer organization is a characteristic of plasma membranes that helps them fuse during vesicle formation and phagocytosis. The plasma membrane is also known as the cell membrane.
