TL;DR: In this paper, a gradient cross-linking strategy was successfully applied to fabricate an ultra-thin gradient crosslinked PVA (GC-PVA) functional layer with the aid of surfactant on a polysulfone (PSF) support membrane.

TL;DR: This work suggests promising new quantum mechanics of ion and electric field-based ionic control concepts to synthesize membranes with the ability to selectively separate a target ion.

TL;DR: In this article, three amphoteric ion-exchange membranes (AIEMs) through blending were fabricated for use in electrodialysis (ED), and the three membranes were prepared by blending amino-containing poly(arylene ether sulfone) (PAES-NH2) with 10, 15, and 20% of sulfonated polysulfone (SPSf), respectively, followed by grafting imidazolium salt-terminated side alkyl chains on PAES backbone.

TL;DR: In this article, a solution-processable polyelectrolyte complexes (PECs) derived from a strong polyacid, in pursuit of high mechanical strength combined with exceptional separation performance were studied.

TL;DR: It was found that both raw and biologically treated textile effluents could be efficiently treated through submerged nanofiltration and the increase of TMP resulted in a decline in water permeability, COD reduction, color removal, and flux recovery ratio.
