Development and Characterization of PES/ EDA-Functionalized TiO2 Mixed Matrix Membrane for CO2 Removal from Natural Gas

The use of mixed matrix membranes is progressively growing in the field of gas separation applications. However poor adhesion between the polymer matrix and inorganic filler is a key challenge that consequences in a declined separation performance. Modification techniques of the inorganic fillers...
