Impact of Polyamide Surface Preparation on the Formation of Mixed CdS-CdTe Layers
Crystals, 2023 CdTe-CdS layers were formed on polyamide (PA) 6 films with different surface modifications using the sorption-diffusion method. Part of the samples of the PA films was boiled in distilled water for 2 h and the other ones were stored in concentrated ...

Assessing the Performance of Thin-Film Nanofiltration Membranes with Embedded Montmorillonites
Membranes, 2020 In this study, the basal spacing of montmorillonite (MMT) was modified through ion exchange. Two kinds of MMT were used: sodium-modified MMT (Na-MMT) and organo-modified MMT (O-MMT).
