Improvement of Properties and Performances of Polyether sulfone Ultrafiltration Membrane by Blending with Bio-Based Dragonbloodin Resin

Polyethersulfone (PES) is the most commonly used polymer for membrane ultrafiltration because of its superior properties. However, it is hydrophobic, as such susceptible to fouling and low permeation rate. This study proposes a novel bio-based additive of dragonbloodin resin (DBR) for improving the...
