TL;DR: A review of nonsolvent induced phase separation membrane preparation and characterization for many commonly used membrane polymers is presented in this article, which includes membrane porosity and pore size distribution characterization, membrane physical and chemical properties characterization, and thermodynamic and kinetic evaluation of phase inversion process.

TL;DR: In this article, contact angles of polar and apolar nonaqueous liquids were combined with aqueous contact angle titrations to quantify the influence of electrolyte pH, ionic strength, and ionic composition on surface acid-base functionality, wettability, and hydrophilicity.

TL;DR: In this article, the authors observed the formation of finger-like macrovoids by convective flow of nonsolvent into the polymer-solvent solution, which arose from interfacial energy gradients at the polymer solution-nonsolvent interface.

TL;DR: In this paper, a highly processable form of polyaniline was synthesized and used to synthesize and form pure poly-anilines and poly-poly-polysulfone ultrafiltration membranes by nonsolvent induced phase inversion.

TL;DR: In this article, high dispersible polypyrrole (PPy) nanospheres were synthesized and used to produce polysulfone (PSf) nanocomposite ultrafiltration membranes by a non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS) process.
