Abstract
A high-quality filler within mixed matrix membranes, coupled with uniform dispersity, endows a high-efficiency transfer pathway for the significant improvement on separation performance. In this work, a zeolite-typed MCM-22 filler is reported that is doped into polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) matrix by ultrafast photo-curing technique. The unique structure of nanosheets assembly layer by layer endows the continuous transfer channels towards penetrate molecules because of the inter-connective nanosheets within PDMS matrix. Furthermore, an ultrafast freezing effect produced by fast photo-curing is used to overcome the key issue, namely filler aggregation, and further eliminates defects. When pervaporative separating a 5 wt% ethanol aqueous solution, the resulting MCM-22/PDMS membrane exhibits an excellent membrane flux of 1486 g m-2 h-1 with an ethanol separation factor of 10.2. Considering a biobased route for ethanol production, the gas stripping and vapor permeation through this membrane also shows a great enrichment performance, and the concentrated ethanol is up to 65.6 wt%. Overall, this MCM-22/PDMS membrane shows a high separation ability for ethanol benefited from a unique structure deign of fillers and ultrafast curing speed of PDMS, and has a great potential for bioethanol separation from cellulosic ethanol fermentation.

Abstract
High-performance pervaporation membranes have potential in industrial separation applications, but overcoming the permeability-selectivity trade-off is a challenge. We report a strategy to create highly flexible metal-organic framework nanosheet (MOF-NS) membranes with a faveolate structure on polymer substrates for alcohol-water separation. The controlled growth followed by a surface-coating method effectively produced flexible and defect-free superhydrophobic MOF-NS membranes. The reversible deformation of the flexible MOF-NS and the vertical interlamellar pathways were captured with electron microscopy. Molecular simulations confirmed the structure and revealed transport mechanism. The ultrafast transport channels in MOF-NS exhibited an ultrahigh flux and a separation factor of 8.9 in the pervaporation of 5 weight % ethanol-water at 40°C, which can be used for biofuel recovery. MOF-NS and polydimethylsiloxane synergistically contribute to the separation performance.
