Graphene oxide nanofiltration membranes with tunable interlayer spacing tend to be either unstable in water or have low water permeation rates. Here the authors report a general synthetic method to achieve ultrafine metal oxide - reduced graphene oxide nanocomposites for dye filtration, achieving high water permeability and selectivity.
