Metric Options: Counts1 Year3 YearSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Article Description
The conventional methods used in preparing zeolite membranes, such as the secondary growth and in situ crystallization methods, involve long and complex procedures that require the preparation of the zeolite aluminosilicate gel prior to the fabrication process and often result in membranes which contain pin holes. Here we report a simple, cheap, and less time-consuming technique to fabricate zeolite A and mordenite membranes on a porous stainless steel support. In addition, the technique makes it possible to fabricate types of zeolite membranes that have been previously difficult to synthesise. A clinoptilolite membrane was fabricated to demonstrate the ability to manufacture a zeolite membrane from an existing crystalline zeolite (natural or synthetic). All three membranes were subjected to separation tests, (ethanol dehydration, ethanol-cyclohexane and phenol removal from water) to demonstrate the efficacy of membrane synthesis. The fluxes obtained and separation factors which were achieved are comparable with literature values but as with most zeolite membranes there is a trade-off between high flux and separation.
