Highly Permeable Graphene Oxide/Polyelectrolytes Hybrid Thin Films for Enhanced CO2/N2 Separation Performance
Abstract Separation of CO2 from other gasses offers environmental benefits since CO2 gas is the main contributor to global warming. Recently, graphene oxide (GO) based gas separation membranes are of interest due to their selective barrier properties. However, maintaining selectivity without sacrifi...
