Precise and ultrafast molecular sieving through graphene oxide membranes.
Graphene-based materials can have well-defined nanometer pores and can exhibit low frictional water flow inside them, making their properties of interest for filtration and separation. We investigate permeation through micrometer-thick laminates prepared by means of vacuum filtration of graphene oxide suspensions. The laminates are vacuum-tight in the dry state but, if immersed in water, act as...
متن کاملTransformation of metal-organic frameworks for molecular sieving membranes
The development of simple, versatile strategies for the synthesis of metal-organic framework (MOF)-derived membranes are of increasing scientific interest, but challenges exist in understanding suitable fabrication mechanisms. Here we report a route for the complete transformation of a series of MOF membranes and particles, based on multivalent cation substitution. Through our approach, the eff...
متن کاملContext Aware Design: Bridging the Gap from Frameworks to Practice
For nearly a decade, researchers had struggled with a widely accepted definition of context. Recently, the definition proposed by Dey, et al. provided a theoretical foundation for future research in context related area. The problem researchers face now is how to use such a general framework in practice. My dissertation will investigate the gap between the existing framework and practical desig...
متن کاملOn the Effective Permeability of Mixed Matrix Membranes
Mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) are attracting significant interest for pervaporation and gas separation applications. To better comprehend the impact of filler particles within polymer matrices, the species permeation mass transport was theoretically studied by numerical simulation using finite differences. The Fick’s second law of diffusion was solved for a three-dimensional MMM to obtain the c...
متن کاملElastic constants of polymer-grafted lipid membranes.
The surface expansion that is induced by the lateral pressure in the brush region of lipid membranes containing grafted polymers is deduced from the scaling and mean-field theories for the polymer brush, together with the equation of state for a lipid monolayer at the equivalence pressure with fluid lipid bilayers. Depending on the length and mole fraction of the polymer lipid, the membrane exp...
