Abstract
Pressure-driven ultrafiltration membranes are important in separation applications.[1-3] Advanced filtration membranes with great permeance and superior rejection must be developed to meet rising worldwide demand. Here we report on layered two dimensional nanmosheets assembled ultrafiltration membranes with a network of nanochannels with a narrow size distribution (3-5 nm) and superior separation performance.[4-8] Their permeance offers a ten-hundred folds enhancement without sacrificing the rejection compared to that of commercial ultrafiltration membranes with similar rejection. This flow enhancement is attributed to the porous structure and significant reduced channel length. The pressure-dependent separation behavior is also reported. The water flow through these hydrophilic nanochannels is identified as viscous. This approach is also extendable to other laminate membranes, providing great potential for accelerating separation and water-purification processes.
