Water is of fundamental importance for life on earth. The synthesis and structure of cell
constituents and transport of nutrients into the cells as well as body metabolism depend on …

One of the biggest issues throughout the globe is the increasing fluoride pollution of the
aquatic environment as a result of both naturally occurring and anthropogenic activities. Its …

A polymeric membrane material for efficient water desalination based on a cross-linked type
I bicontinuous cubic (QI) lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC) assembly is described. This ordered …

A new concept for the synthesis of thin polyamide nanofiltration membranes on ultrafiltration
polysulfone supports is reported. Polyamide membranes with controllable thin dense layer …

In this paper, we present the case for molecular-recognition approaches for sulfate removal
from radioactive wastes via the use of anion-sequestering systems selective for sulfate …

This study involved preparation of positively charged nanofiltration membranes by chemical
modification of P84 copolyimide asymmetric membranes using branched polyethylenimine …

Cross‐linked lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC) assemblies represent a new class of polymer
materials for membrane applications. These materials are formed by the phase‐segregation …

Most nanofiltration (NF) membranes are composite and have a polyamide thin film prepared
by interfacial polymerization. Their performances mainly correlate the structure of the thin …

Lyotropic liquid crystal (LLC) networks are nanoporous polymer materials formed by the in
situ cross-linking of reactive amphiphiles (ie, surfactants) that self-organize in water or other …

Water is termed a 'prime natural resource'and 'basic human need'. It is worthwhile to ensure
access to a good quality of life or enhance life expectancy. Water is considered the …
