Surface modification of polyamide ultrafiltration membrane by plasma polymerisation of acrylic acid

Increase in hydrophilicity of the filtration membrane could attribute to the fouling reduction and overall filtration performance. In this study, we employ a surface modification on polyamide (PA) membrane by using plasma polymerization with acrylic acid as the precursor by varying the deposition...
