Study on the gas performance of ceramic membrane from kaolin prepared by phase inversion technique

Membrane for gas application have been widely used. Apart from that, ceramic membrane is gaining much attention towards separation technology due to its characteristics of offering high mechanical strength, chemical resistivity and thermal compatibility. However, production of ceramic membrane...
