Abstract

A facile strategy for the preparation of multifunctional Janus membranes (JMs) was proposed, and excellent controllability of the multifunctional JMs was demonstrated in water collection, lossless transportation, decontamination, and on-off control. This novel strategy will accelerate the evolution of JMs from a scientific concept to usable materials for the “real” world.
