The incorporation of solid fillers into mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) is a promising approach to overcome the permeability-selectivity trade-off characteristic of polymeric membranes. However, MMMs that contain conventional fillers (e.g., zeolites, silicas, and porous carbons) usually exhibit defect...
