The separation properties of polyamide reverse osmosis and nanofiltration membranes,
widely applied for desalination and water reuse, are constrained by the permeability …

Membrane separation properties are constrained by a tradeoff relationship between
permeability and selectivity. This tradeoff relationship has been well established for gas …

Interlayered thin-film nanocomposite membranes (TFNi) are an emerging type of
membranes with great potential to overcome the permeability–selectivity upper bound of …

Lack of water resources and water pollution by heavy metal ions and microorganisms has
made it necessary to utilize efficient water treatment methods. In this study, for the first time …

Reverse osmosis (RO) based desalination is one of the most important and widely
