The overall focus of this thesis is on the development and understanding ofnanoporous layered silicates and membranes, particularly for potential applications in gasseparations. Nanoporous layered materials are a rapidly growing area of interest, andinclude materials such as layered zeolites, porous layered oxides, layeredaluminophosphates, and porous graphenes. They possess unique transport properties thatmay be advantageous for membrane and thin film applications. These materials also havevery different chemistry from 3-D porous materials due to the existence of a large,chemically active, external surface area. This feature also necessitates the development ofinnovative strategies to process these materials into membranes and thin films with highperformance.
