Membranes recyclable noncovalent

Addressing the viability and versatility of water-based noncovalent polymeric materials, we have shown that hydrophobic interactions are adequate for creating noncovalent membranes for size-selective separation of nanoparticles and proteins. These membranes exhibit separation properties similar to their covalent counterparts. Unlike cOTiventional membranes, our systems are fuUy recyclable and more versatile, shaping a paradigm of water-based materials as a viable alternative to covalent systems.
