Graphene and carbon nanotubes are considered as future materials in various fields, including adsorption, accumulation and separation processes, and so are hybrid materials combining their properties. This paper reports our study on separative abilities of 3-D network structures consisting of graphene planes pillared with nanotube fragments. Results of molecular dynamics simulations confirm that such materials can be successfully applied as membranes in relation to noble gas mixtures. A simple explanation of the mechanism underlying the process is proposed.
石墨烯和碳纳米管被认为是未来在各个领域的材料，包括吸附，积累和分离过程，因此是混合材料结合其性能。本文报道了我们对由石墨烯片与纳米管碎片支柱组成的 3-D 网络结构的分离能力的研究。分子动力学模拟的结果证实，这样的材料可以成功地应用于与稀有气体混合物相关的膜。提出了对该过程的机制的简单解释。
