Mixed matrix membrane incorporated with large pore size halloysite nanotubes (HNTs) as filler for gas separation: morphological diagram

This study investigated the expected morphologies for MMMs comprising large pore size fillers. Halloysite nanotube (HNT) was employed as a representative of large pore size fillers to interpret the morphologies. It was expected that five main morphologies could be observed. The corresponding selecti...
