Synthesis and Characterisation of a Polysulfone-Polyvinyl Alcohol Hydrogelic Material [PDF]
Hydrogels are flexible materials that have found a niche in membrane science owing to their ability to absorb water without dissolving. The synthesis of polyvinyl alcohol-polysulfone hydrogel in the presence of N-hydroxy succinimide is presented herein ...

Electrospun polysulfone/poly(lactic acid) nanoporous fibrous mats for oil removal from water [PDF]
The study of oil sorbents with high oil sorption capacity is of great significance for oil–water separation, especially for oil spillage on seawater. In this work, we report polysulfone, poly(lactic acid), and polysulfone/poly(lactic acid) nanoporous ...

Modified Polysulfone Membranes. IV. Gas Separation with Aminated Polysulfone Membranes. [PDF]
Novel gas permeation membranes were prepared from polysulfones and amine-modified polysulfones. The introduction of the primary amine moiety into polysulfone membranes led to an increase in permselectivity toward CO2 in CO2/N2 separation and a significant increase in that toward O2 in O2/N2 separation.

Human hepatic cell behavior on polysulfone membrane with double porosity level [PDF]
In the membrane-based bioartificial livers developed up to now,the hepatic cells were located either in the fibers lumen or in the cartridge,with limited capacity for cell hosting.Here,we designed a polysulfone (PSU) membrane with a double porosity ...

Experimental study of the effects of hypochlorite on polysulfone membrane properties [PDF]
Although chemical solutions are widely employed to clean membranes, they can also be responsible for changes in membrane properties. The two major drawbacks are then either the functional properties of the membrane gradually change, so the production can

Removal of Lipopolysaccharide and Reactive Oxygen Species Using Sialic Acid Immobilized Polysulfone Dialyzer [PDF]
Sialic acid (N-acetylneuraminic acid, NANA) was covalently immobilized onto the surface of a polysulfone (PSF) hollow fiber membrane. Prior to the immobilization, the surface of PSF was treated with ozone, followed by grafting with acrylic acid, and then
