Abstract
) and excellent rejection of dye molecules larger than 1.4 nm (>98%). The membrane exhibited long-term operation which confirmed its outstanding stability. Our solid-vapor interfacial polymerization method may evolve into a generic platform to fabricate COFs and other organic framework membranes.
