A nanocomposite paper comprising calcium silicate hydrate nanosheets and cellulose nanofibers for high-performance water purification

Removal of soluble organic and inorganic contaminants from wastewater to produce clean water has received much attention recently. However, the simultaneous enhancement of water permeability and removal efficiency is still a challenge for filtration membranes. Here, we present a new kind of nanocomposite paper (CSH/CNF) consisting of calcium silicate hydrate (CSH) nanosheets and cellulose nanofibers (CNFs), and demonstrate the rapid water...
