Effect of extrusion rate on morphology of Kaolin / Poly Ether Sulfone (PESf) membrane precursor

This study aims to investigate the influence of apparent viscosity induced by spinneret geometry and extrusion rate on morphology of Kaolin/PESf hollow fiber membranes. Different extrusion rates at two different rheology properties were introduced on a straight and conical spinneret resulting in var...

Increasing the extrusion rate; thus shear rate will cause outer finger-like region growth which is not desirable in a separation process. 2016 Conference or Workshop Item PeerReviewed text en https://eprints.ums.edu.my/id/eprint/19422/1/Effect%20of%20extrusion%20rate%20on%20morphology%20of%20Kaolin.pdf Mohd Suffian Misaran and Rosalam Sarbatly and Awang Bono and M.M.
