Abstract

Graphene oxide (GO) has been considered as a promising membrane material, because of its easy processability and distinct properties, including controllable pore size distribution and diffusion channels. Particularly, the feasibility has been proposed a number of simulation results and proof-of-concept experimental approaches towards GO membranes. That is, GO already shows many outstanding intrinsic properties suitable for promising membrane platforms, such as the minimum membrane thickness and the ability to generate nanopores in the two-dimensional lattices or to create slit-like nanochannels between adjacent sheets. This review will be addressed the important experimental development in GO-based membranes for gas and ion separations, emphasizing on intrinsic transport phenomena, and critical issues for practical applications.

그래핀옥사이드는 우수한 물리적 특성 및 가공성으로 멤브레인 소재로 각광받고 있다. 특히, 이론적 예측과 실험적인 접근을 통해 그래핀옥사이드의 원자 수준의 얇은 두께, 뛰어난 기계적 강도, 높은 수준의 내화학성, 기공 생성이 가능한 2차원 구조 또는 기체 확산 유로 생성이 가능한 적층구조 등 멤브레인 소재로서 매우 유리한 특성들을 보유하고 있음이 밝혀졌다. 또한 그래핀옥사이드에서의 분자 투과 거동은 적층된 그래핀옥사이드 사이의 채널 크기에 따라 영향을 받는다는 것이 발견되었다. 그 후, 이러한 특성을 응용하여 그래핀옥사이드를 멤브레인 소재로 활용하기 위해 많은 연구가 집중적으로 진행되고 있다. 본 총설에서는 그래핀옥사이드의 고유 특성을 기반으로 멤브레인 분야로의 응용 가능성에 대하여 논하고자 한다.
