Development of high-performance asymmetric membranes is a major breakthrough in membrane technology. A comprehensive study on original concepts and new advances in membrane formation process is necessary to generate defect-free and ultrathin-skinned asymmetric membranes with superior performance for gas separation process. Correlation of rheological factors with primary-phase inversion process is a novel approach in membrane research that provides a potential platform to improve membrane performance. The former controls general morphology of membrane, whereas the latter further affects molecular orientation in membrane.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
