ABSTRACT

This article explains the transmission and separation and interception mechanisms of graphene oxide films, and based on this, it is concluded that the interlayer spacing can be controlled through reduction, cross-linking, cation control, intercalation, physical restrictions, etc. Chemical physical methods; and internal structural defect control mainly through creating nanopores and sealing defects. Therefore, summarizing and analyzing the application limitations of graphene oxide and proposing modification methods and measures for graphene oxide membrane materials can lay a good foundation for the practical application of graphene oxide membranes.
