Comparing this data with that obtained for 2-Cl-BPT (red curve) and 2-Br-BPT (green curve), a slight trend towards a more effective cross-linking of 2-Br-BPT seems to be visible, despite the noise present in the XPS raw data ( Figure 3a ).

The sentences
The bond selectivity in DEA and the fact that the cross sections for this process may be significant at 0 eV electron incident energy opens up the attractive possibility to use this process to purposely enhance the cross-linking efficiency and explore the potential of site selectivity in the cross-linking step as a tool to control the properties, and ultimately, the functionality of the produced nanomembranes.
