제목 Sub- 5 nm graphene oxide nanofilm with exceptionally high H+/V selectivity for vanadium redox flow battery  
초록 Highly H+/V selective membranes are desired in high-performance vanadium redox flow batteries (VFRBs) to overcome the cross-over phenomena of vanadium species). Herein, we first demonstrated that the molecular-sieving nanochannels (~0.84 nm) formed inside a graphene oxide (GO) laminate (~5 µm) efficiently blocked the transport of vanadium ions, while allowing the transport of H+. Furthermore, an ultrathin (sub-5 nm) and highly-selective GO nanofilm was successfully coated on a porous substrate to improve the H+ flux using a facile spin-coating method. The GO-coated thin-film composite (TFC) membrane showed much higher H+ flux, along with an exceptionally high H+/V selectivity (up to 850), due to the molecular-sieving nanochannels inside the GO nanofilm, leading to a much more enhanced VRFB performance in terms of energy efficiency (EE: 84.7%) compared to the benchmark Nafion membrane (EE: 69.2%), at 20 mA cm-2.
