TL;DR: In this paper, the synergistic effect of these three materials on angstrom-scale molecular transport both in organic solvent and aqueous environment was elucidated using a series of complementary techniques.

TL;DR: In this paper, a facile in situ molecularly soldered strategy was developed to fabricate defect-free ultrathin COF membranes with precise sieving abilities using the typical chemical environment for COF condensation polymerization and dopamine self-polymerization.

TL;DR: A wonderful stability of Cate-PEG in membrane matrix was discovered by the XPS analysis in the incubation treatment with hot water due to the strong sticky property of catechol structure in Cate, which has great potential not only for membrane surface modification but also for multifunctional manipulations of materials for diverse applications.

TL;DR: In this paper, the effects of fabrication conditions on separation performance of the loose membranes with the bio-coating as the effective selective layer were examined in detail for imitating the industrial separation conditions.

TL;DR: In this paper, a versatile catechol containing poly (ethylene glycol) modifier with zwitterionic characteristics (SZ-PEG) was synthesized and blended with polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) membranes with excellent fouling-resistance via surface segregation during non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS).
