Thin membranes (900 nm) were prepared by direct transformation of infiltrated amorphous precursor nanoparticles, impregnated in a graphene oxide (GO) matrix, into hydroxy sodalite (SOD) nanocrystals. The amorphous precursor particles rich in silanols (Si−OH) enhanced the interactions with the GO, thus leading to the formation of highly adhesive and stable SOD/GO membranes via strong bonding. The cross‐linking of SOD nanoparticles with the GO in the membranes promoted both the high gas permeance and enhanced selectivity towards H 2 from a mixture containing CO 2 and H 2 O. The SOD/GO membranes are moisture resistance and exhibit steady separation performance (H 2 permeance of about 4900 GPU and H 2 /CO 2 selectivity of 56, with no degradation in performance during the test of 50 h) at high temperature (200 °C) under water vapor (4 mol %).
