We introduce a hybrid-integrated membrane strategy wherein a high-permeability thin film is chemically functionalized with a patchy CO 2 -philic grafted chain surface layer. The researchers plan to investigate potential applications for the polymer, including use in ventilation and filtration devices and climate change mitigation.

As the world grapples with the pressing issue of climate change, it is evident that we need swift action to avert its worst impacts. As one MIT report found, on average, “a fully electric vehicle emits about 25 percent less carbon than a comparable hybrid car.” A straightforward switch can create a substantial positive effect.
