Polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) films and particularly hollow capsules composed of PEM
shells have gained significant interest since their introduction. Their compositional versatility …

The performance of nanofiltration (NF) processes is mainly governed by factors such as the
sieving effect (also known as size exclusion) and the Donnan effect (which depends on …

We fabricated polyelectrolyte multilayer (PEM) nanofiltration (NF) membranes using a layer-
by-layer (LbL) method for effective removal of scale-forming divalent cations (Mg 2+, Ca 2+ …

The rapidly growing fields of noncontact medical diagnosis, noninvasive epidermal sensing,
and environmental monitoring bring forward the need for fast humidity sensors. However …

In this study, the glutaraldehyde (GA) crosslinking was adopted in combination of layer-by-
layer (LBL) polyelectrolyte deposition to develop a novel hollow fiber NF membrane with low …

The modification of membranes by polyelectrolytes via the Layer-by-Layer technique is an
attractive method to obtain nanofiltration membranes. We prepare such membranes by …

Membranes play a crucial role in ensuring the optimum use and recovery of materials in
manufacturing. This book examines current membrane fabrication methods and how they …

Nanofiltration (NF) membranes operate with higher flux and lower energy requirements than
reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, and exhibit relatively low rejection and selectivity for …

Selective recovery of silver from secondary resources enriched with copper impurities is a
well-known challenge but is urgently needed by the industry. This study addresses the …

Polymeric membranes are used on very large scales for drinking water production and
kidney dialysis, but they are nearly always prepared by using large quantities of …
