Abstract: The present disclosure relates to an alkylated graphene oxide membrane comprising a plurality of graphene oxide layers, each graphene oxide layer including at least one graphene oxide sheet covalently coupled to a chemical spacer, the chemical spacer being of Formula I: The present disclosure also relates to a filtration apparatus comprising an alkylated graphene oxide membrane disposed on a support substrate.

Abstract: Embodiments described herein relate generally to durable graphene oxide membranes for fluid filtration. For example, the graphene oxide membranes can be durable under high temperatures non-neutral pH, and/or high pressures. One aspect of the present disclosure relates to a filtration apparatus comprising: a support substrate, and a graphene oxide membrane disposed on the support substrate. The graphene oxide membrane has a first lactose rejection rate of at least 50% with a first 1 wt % lactose solution at room temperature. The graphene oxide membrane has a second lactose rejection rate of at least 50% with a second 1 wt % lactose solution at room temperature after the graphene oxide membrane is contacted with a solution that is at least 80° C. for a period of time.
