Preparation of chitosan/cellulose acetate composite nanofiltration membrane for wastewater treatment

Abstract: A chitosan/cellulose acetate (CA) composite membrane is prepared in this study. The effect of varying CA concentration on membrane morphology and performance is studied by using scanning electron microscopy and the composite membrane is characterized by differential scanning calorimetry an...
