a Schematic illustration of the increased water absorption and transport through N-TFN membranes. b Radial distribution functions for water and three segments in the N-TFN membranes. Insert is the number of water molecule near each segment. Different segments in N-TFN membranes investigated in MD simulations: c carboxyl groups (segment a), d PIP-TMC polyamide segments (segment b), and e tube segments (segment c). The blue background refers to the distribution of water molecules in different regions of the polyamide film.
