Fig. 3. Measurements of selective molecular transport through VAGME nanochannels.

Fig. 3

a Custom diffusion cell for temperature-dependent vapor permeation experiments. VAGME films are adhered on the top of a copper sheet spanning a 4 mm diameter hole by epoxy adhesive, and the plate is clamped and sealed on top of a stirred liquid/vapor cell. Scale bar, 5 mm. b Measured vapor fluxes through VAGME films for pure liquids and liquid mixtures. Pure liquids: water, n-hexane and 2-propanol. Liquid mixtures (circled in red dot line): water and 2-propanol. c Control experiments for water, n-hexane or 2-propanol vapor permeation through epoxy-only membranes of same (20 μm) thickness. Flux values are normalized by the active Zr-GO (nanochannel array) area.
