Fumed nano-SiO2 particles were modified with a silane coupling agent (3-aminopropyl)triethoxysilane and they were subsequently incorporated into P84 polymer matrix to form nanocomposite membranes. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and X-ray photoelectro...
