An acid functionalized MWCNT/PVP nanocomposite as a new additive for fabrication of an ultrafiltration membrane with improved antifouling resistance

Membrane fouling is one of the main challenges encountered in ultrafiltration (UF) processes and the use of nanoparticles for the improvement of UF performance is a recent trend in membrane technology. In this study, in order to improve surface characteristics of polyethersulfone (PES)-based membran...
