Effect of pressure on the swelling and fluxes of dense PDMS membranes in nanofiltration: An experimental study
Abstract(#br)In Organic Solvent Nanofiltration (OSN), the exact effect of pressure (0.1–5\u003cce:hsp sp=\"0.25\"/\u003eMPa range) on the membrane, mass transfer and membrane selectivity is still unclear despite the many investigations that have been reported in the last decade. The same questions continue to be raised: Does pressure contribute to both convective and diffusive flux? Does pressure induce polymer compaction?
