Journal ArticleDOI
Sub–10 nm polyamide nanofilms with ultrafast solvent transport for molecular separation
TL;DR: Thin, crumpled polymer films on ceramic supports are high-flux membranes for removing small molecules from organic fluids and were sufficiently rigid that the crumpling textures could withstand pressurized filtration, resulting in increased permeable area.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrafast viscous permeation of organic solvents through diamond-like carbon nanosheets
TL;DR: In this article, the authors reported the preparation of ultrathin free-standing amorphous carbon membranes with Young's moduli of 90 to 170 gigapascals, which can separate organic dyes at a rate three orders of magnitude greater than that of commercially available membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI
Water Transport through Ultrathin Polyamide Nanofilms Used for Reverse Osmosis.
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of thickness on the rate of water transport through polyamide nanofilm composite membranes for desalination by reverse osmosis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Ultrathin Polymer Films with Intrinsic Microporosity: Anomalous Solvent Permeation and High Flux Membranes

TL;DR: The state-of-the-art polymeric membranes are either integrally skinned asymmetric (ISA) or thin fi lm composite (TFC) membranes, which are produced by the phase inversion technique which leads to a dense separation layer a few hundred nanometres thick being formed on a highly porous support structure several microns in thickness as mentioned in this paper.
