An atomistic simulation towards elucidation of operating temperature effect in CO2 swelling of polysulfone polymeric membranes

A complementary study, which involves computational and in-house collected experimental work, has been employed to elucidate the swelling effect within polysulfone membranes by CO2 at varying operating temperatures. The simulation models have been constructed with accordance to collected experimenta...
