Preparation of low-fouling polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes by incorporating high-molecular-weight chitosan with the help of a surfactant
Increasing the resistance of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration (PES UF) membrane to fouling remains a challenging endeavor when developing UF membrane.This paper concerns the incorporation of chitosan into PES UF membrane to produce low-fouling PES UF membrane.The membranes were produced by means of phase inversion with chitosan as an additive.In or
