Asymmetric polyamide nanofilms with highly ordered nanovoids for water purification
TL;DR: An asymmetric polyamide nanofilm having a two-layer structure, in which the lower is a spherical polyamide dendrimer porous layer, and the upper is a polyamide dense layer with highly ordered nanovoids structure, which surpasses the upper bound line of the permeability−selectivity performance of the existing various structural polyamide membranes.

Unimpeded permeation of water through helium-leak-tight graphene-based membranes.
TL;DR: Submicrometer-thick membranes made from graphene oxide can be completely impermeable to liquids, vapors, and gases, including helium, but these membranes allow unimpeded permeation of water (H2O permeates through the membranes at least 1010 times faster than He).
