• Metal‐Organic Framework Quasi‐Monolayer Integrated Composite Membranes for Selective Rare‐Metal Separation

  Aiwen Zhang, Zhaohuan Mai, Xiao Zhu, Tianqi Song, Xueru Yan, Jingwei Hou, Yatao Zhang, Hideto Matsuyama, Bart Van der Bruggen, Junyong Zhu

  Abstract Pliable integration of metal‐organic frameworks (MOFs) with polymers enables precise separations, advancing circular economy initiatives. Maximizing the pore functionality of MOFs is critical for rapid ion sieving but necessitates a uniform and stable distribution to expose their interpenetrated nanochannels. Here, this work reports a controlled approach for integrating an ultrathin Zr‐MOF monolayer with a flexible polyamide film using a coupled cathode electrophoretic deposition and interfacial polymerization (CED‐IP) strategy. By tuning the electric field intensity, this work achieves uniform monolayer coverage of diverse MOFs (UiO‐66, MOF‐808, and NU‐1000) with varying pore apertures on porous supports, followed by the formation of a thin‐film nanocomposite (TFN) configuration via confined IP. The exposed functional groups within these MOF pores enhance interaction with aqueous‐phase diamines, which polymerize with acyl chlorides, resulting in TFN membranes with a moderately reduced crosslinking degree, improved hydrophilicity and enhanced surface electronegativity. Experimental and simulation data reveal that the large‐pore NU‐1000 offers the lowest transport resistance in polyamide membranes, leading to an exceptional 186.3% increase in water permeance compared to control membranes. The resulting Zr‐MOF‐integrated polyamide membrane demonstrates outstanding selectivity for WO₄²⁻/Cl⁻ (50.6) and MoO₄²⁻/Cl⁻ (53.7), outperforming most MOF‐based nanofiltration membranes. These results underscore the potential of a mesoporous MOF‐monolayer based TFN membranes for low‐energy extraction of critical rare metals.

• Hierarchically Structured Porous Polyamide‐Imide Membrane for Switchable Emulsion Separation

  Abstract The development of advanced membranes with switchable superwettability has attracted considerable attention for the efficient treatment of oily wastewater. However, challenges persist in designing and fabricating such membranes through straightforward methods. In this study, a novel strategy is presented to design switchable superwettable membranes based on micro/nano‐structured porous surfaces and surface chemical composition reorganization. A commercial amphiphilic polymer, polyamide‐imide (Torlon), is fabricated into a porous symmetric membrane with a hierarchical surface structure using a one‐step non‐solvent‐induced phase separation method. By leveraging the surface reorganization capability of amphiphilic polymers and the hierarchically porous structure, the resulting membranes demonstrate exceptional superamphiphilicity in air, underwater superoleophobicity, and underoil superhydrophobicity. These properties enable ultrahigh permeance and separation efficiency for oil‐in‐water, water‐in‐oil, and crude oil/water emulsions through a gravity‐driven process, eliminating the need for external energy. Furthermore, the membranes exhibit excellent antifouling and self‐cleaning performance, maintaining stable operation over multiple cycles. This work provides an innovative and scalable approach to next‐generation switchable superwettable membranes with broad potential applications in oily wastewater treatment and beyond.

• Self‐Aggregation Control of Porphyrin for Enhanced Selective Covalent Organic Network Membranes

  Zheng Wang, Keizo Nakagawa, Kecheng Guan, Mengyang Hu, Zhaohuan Mai, Wenming Fu, Qin Shen, Yasunao Okamoto, Atsushi Matsuoka, Eiji Kamio, Tomohisa Yoshioka, Hideto Matsuyama

  Abstract Covalent organic networks (CONs) are considered ideal for precise molecular separation compared with traditional polymer membranes because their pores have a sharp molecular weight cut‐off and a robust structure. However, challenges remain with regard to tuning pores as a prerequisite for facile membrane fabrication to a defect‐free layer. Herein, a highly conjugated amino‐porphyrin is used and exploited its tunable stacking behavior to fabricate porphyrin‐based polyamide CONs with ordered structures through interfacial polymerization with acyl chlorides. Controlling the self‐aggregation behavior of the porphyrin and the conformation of the acyl chlorides can create different covalent networks. Acid‐triggered porphyrin protonation offsets stacking to reduce the pore in the network from mesopore to micropore, enabling selective molecule transport. Furthermore, different acyl chloride ligands are used to control the interlayer bonding in CONs. Accordingly, the tailored pore diameters (0.48–0.78 nm) are confirmed by the molecule rejections with performance stability over 25 days of operation, as well as under various conditions. This study leverages porphyrin chemistry and interfacial polymerization to fabricate a defect‐free CON layer with a significantly lower molecular weight cut‐off (< 330 Da) than previously reported porphyrin‐based membranes (>800 Da). This will pave the way for the development of ideal topological membranes.
