Surface and cross-sectional SEM images of a control NF and b AJ NF membranes. c Permeability and salt rejection of control NF and AJ NF membranes. d Intrinsic water permeability and volumetric flux of control NF and AJ NF membranes. e Schematic illustration of segmental structures (top), water transport mechanisms (middle), and water-binding energies (bottom) for segments I (PIP-TMC), II (ATPB-TMC), and III (carboxyl), respectively. f Hydrogen bond statistics for segments I and II during water transport. g RDF between water molecules and segments I and II. h Overall performance comparison between control NF and AJ NF membranes. Error bars represent the standard deviation from  triplicated experiments.
