We report a facile synthesis strategy of a membrane active
layer consisting of crosslinked carbon nano dots through a layer-by-layer
process and the application of these membranes in organic solvent
nanofiltration. The synthesized membrane is stable in organic solvents for a
long duration, displays tight molecular weight cut off, and fluoresces under UV
light, allowing one to capture mechanical failure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
