Abstract
Nanofilms useful for filtration are prepared from amphiphilic species and one or more polymeric components. The amphiphilic species or components may be oriented on an interface or surface. A nanofilm may be prepared by coupling one or more of the components. The nanofilm may also be deposited or attached to a substrate.

A composition comprising a mixture of macrocyclic modules and at least one polymeric component in organic solvent.
A composition comprising a thin film of a reaction product of macrocyclic modules and at least one polymeric component, wherein the composition is prepared by a process comprising contacting the macrocyclic modules and the at least one polymeric component at an air-liquid or liquid-liquid interface.
A method for making a nanofilm composition comprising:
- (a) providing a mixture of macrocyclic modules and at least one polymeric component;
- and (b) forming the mixture into a thin film at an air-liquid or liquid-liquid interface.
A method for making a nanofilm composition comprising the reaction product of macrocyclic modules and at least one polymeric component, comprising:
- (a) providing a subphase containing the at least one polymeric component;
- and (b) contacting macrocyclic modules with the surface of the subphase.
