DOI: 10.1016/j.cej.2021.129154
Abstract: Abstract A thin-film composite polyamide membrane has been widely implemented in water desalination. However, the balance between permeability and selectivity by decreasing structural stability has restricted their larger-scale applications in water desalination. Here, we fabricated… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/polym12071446
Abstract: ZSM-22/polyethersulfone membranes were prepared for salt rejection using modelled brackish water. The membranes were fabricated via direct ZSM-22 incorporation into a polymer matrix, thereby inducing the water permeability, hydrophilicity and fouling resistance of the pristine… read more here.
