Development And Characterization Of Asymmetric Nanofiltration Surfactant Membranes For Ion Removal

In this study a new formulation of dope solution consisting of polyethersulfone, Nmethyl-2-pyrrolidone, water and surfactant were formulated from 19 to 27 wt% of PES concentration. The polyvinyl-pyrrolidone additive (PVP K15) and surfactant (Triton X-100) were added into the dope solution as pore fo...
