Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and energy-dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectroscopy

The performance of ceramic, polymeric, and carbon membranes is commonly associated with the membrane surface and cross-sectional morphology. Thus, a proper characterization on the membrane structures is crucial for the development of commercial membranes. Therefore, in this chapter, three important...
