Tailoring the hydrophobic properties of membranes is an important requirement in gas-liquid membrane contactor processes because the membrane can be wetted by liquid. This paper describes the hydrophobic modification of the chemical surface of a polyvinylidene fluoride hollow-fiber membrane using a...
