Chemically converted graphene oxide laminate membranes, which exhibit stable interlayered nanochannels in aqueous environments, are receiving increasing attention owing to their potential for selective water and ion permeation. However, how the molecular properties of conversion agents influence the stabilization of nanochannels and how effectively nanochannels are stabilized have rarely been studied. In this study, mono-, di-, and tri-saccharide molecules of glucose (Glu), maltose (Glu2), and maltotriose (Glu3) are utilized, respectively, to chemically modify graphene oxide (GO)...
