Publisher's Synopsis
Polymeric Membrane Formation by Phase Inversion analyzes the four main phase inversion techniques. Effective parameters in each technique are covered, along with the methodologies needed to prepare advanced membranes for specific separations in both liquid and gas phases. Roll-to-roll casting, spinning hollow fiber, and electrospinning nanofibers are presented, along with an analysis of the impact of solvent toxicity, membrane production, and the source of raw materials on the environment. The book describes a roadmap for designing different morphological characteristics for preparing specific membranes for special applications, along with the merits and disadvantages of each method. This book provides an easy, comprehensive reference for academic and industry professionals working in membrane engineering.
