Abstract. The nanofiltration (NF) membrane has many characteristics, such as low operating pressure, good selective separation, etc. These advantages make it have a good application prospect in the field of water treatment. The hollow fiber NF membrane was prepared by interfacial polymerization (IP), in which Sulfanilic Acid (SA) was used as water phase monomer and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) was used as organic phase monomer. Its performance was systematically analyzed. IR shows that the IP polymer contains amide group which indicates the occasion of IP between SA and TMC. The flux of NF membrane reduces and rejection increases with the increase of the SA concentration, TMC concentration and IP time. Its flux is lower and rejection is higher as the concentration of sodium carbonate (Na 2 CO 3 ) and sodium dodecyl sulfonate (SDS) is 1.5% and 0.15%, respectively.
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.
