Preparation and Desalination Performance of PA/UiO-66/PES Composite Membranes

UiO-66 nanoparticles are considered highly potential fillers for the application in desalination membranes. In this study, UiO-66 nanoparticles were anchored to PES membrane substrates, which were subsequently subjected to the interfacial polymerization reaction to coat a layer of polyamide (PA) on...

For comparison, a blank membrane incorporating no UiO-66 and a reference membrane incorporating ZrO<sub>2</sub> (instead of UiO-66) were prepared.
