The effect of synthetic silica on ultrafiltration PSF membrane

This study investigates the effects of synthetic silica(SiO2)with different weight percentage concentrations on the morphology and performance of the polysulfone (PSf) and polyethelene glycol (PEG) based membrane ultrafiltration (UF). Phase inversion method was used to prepare PSf/PEG ultrafiltratio...
