Trade-off between permeability and nanometer-level selectivity is an inherent shortcoming of membrane-based separation of molecules. Here, the authors report a membrane adsorption material based on hydrophilic amidoxime modified polymer of intrinsic microporosity to selectively adsorb and separate small organic molecules from water with ultrahigh processing capacity
