Abstract

Abstract : A mechanically durable, flame‐resistant, and superhydrophobic membrane has been prepared that employs polyphenol–Fe 3+ bis‐complexes as adhesives for strong binding of multiple wall carbon nanotubes onto a collagen fiber membrane. The cover image depicts successfully separated, mixed surfactant‐stabilized emulsions by the as‐prepared membrane under gravity with high flux.
