Table 1.

Water vapor fluxes measured through VAGME devices and conventional GO films.

Membrane Flux (60 °C) kg m−2 hr−1 Flux (80 °C) kg m−2 hr−1 Flux (100 °C)** kg m−2 hr−1
Conventional GO films 1.7–4.1* 9,27 (film cracking) (film cracking)
VAGME (total area basis) 1.9 ± 0.1 5.6 ± 0.2 13 ± 2
VAGME (active area basis) 27 ± 1 79 ± 2 (1.8 ± 0.3) × 102
Normalized flux (60 °C) kg m−2 hr−1 μm Normalized flux (80 °C) kg m−2 hr−1 μm Normalized flux (100 °C) kg m−2 hr−1 μm
VAGME (active area basis) (5.4 ± 0.2) × 102 (1.6 ± 0.1) × 103 (3.5 ± 0.6) × 103

*The flux value from ref. 9 includes a calculated temperature correction based on vapor pressure driving force.

**The 100 °C data is time-dependent and the table entries are average fluxes over 12 h.
