Abstract

Well-intergrown polycrystalline UiO-66 membranes were successfully synthesized on polymeric substrate under mild synthesis conditions of low temperature and short synthesis time. Benefiting from angstrom-sized lattice apertures, the UiO-66 membranes with fast water selective transport channels revealed an unprecedented high solvents dehydration performance with permeation flux of up to ~6100 g·m-2·h-1 and separation factor of ~7500, showing great potential for intensification of esterification reaction.
