Abstract:The separation of Li + from Mg 2+ in salt-lake brines using nanofiltration (NF) has become the most popular solution to meet the rising demand for lithium, particularly driven by the extensive use of lithium-ion batteries. This study presents the fabrication of a uniquely designed polyamide (PA) thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membranes with ultrahigh Li + /Mg 2+ selectivity and enhanced water flux by covalently incorporating mixed ligands functionalized silica nanoparticles (F-SiO 2 NPs) into the selective PA l… Show more
