“…Similar trend is also observed in results of porosity measurements (Table 2). This might be due to induced changes on phase inversion rate as a result of the interaction between nanofillers and polymer [14,15]. PWCNT membranes presented a slight increment in sub-layer porosity compared with CNT series.…”

“…Porosity increases by adding 0.05 and 0.1 wt.% nanofillers, remains rather unchanged in 0.5 wt.% (compared with 0.1 wt.%) and decreases remarkably in 1 wt.% nanofiller. Increasing the viscosity of casting solution by increasing nano-additive content decreases the coagulation rate of polymer in non-solvent and alters the skinlayer thickness [15,60]. Therefore, there is an optimum amount of blended nanofiller for obtaining a membrane with thinner skinlayer and higher porosity.…”

“…A schematic representation is shown in Figure 8 [136]. In some cases, modified nanotubes were used as filler material, as, for example, reported by Mansourpanah et al [149] for the use of polycaprolactone-modified multiwall carbon nanotubes as additives for synthesis of PES membranes. Several other examples of such studies can be found, in which it is shown that membrane properties change when carbon nanotubes are added to the polymer matrix [150][151][152][153].…”
