제목 Nano-structured Polyamide Membranes for Desalination Applications
초록 Polyamide(PA) layer is one of the important elements in reverse osmosis water desalination. Conventional technique has usually used an interfacial polymerization method at the hexane-water interface to fabricate PA thin films which however consist of high surface roughness. In this work, we prepared the flat PA films with a uniform thickness of around 5 nm. The PA film structure was characterized in aqueous solution with and without NaCl in D2O by in situ and ex situ measurements of neutron reflectivity and X-ray reflectivity, respectively. From the result, we precisely determine the swollen thickness of the PA layer as a function of time and salt concentration. We compared these structural properties with the salt rejection and water flux rate for practical desalination applications.
