Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) plasma sputtering of polypropylene (PP) membranes allows the formation of an ultrathin fluorinated hydrophobic surface that retains the microporous surface structure of ...

Forward osmosis (FO) is a promising alternative to reverse osmosis (RO) in membrane-based water desalination. In the current study, carboxylated multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were incorporated ...
