Polysulfone Composite Membranes with Carbonaceous Structure. Synthesis and Applications
Source abstract
Abstract
The present review deals with the latest progress in the field of polysulfone composite membranes with carbon nanotubes, carbon fiber and graphene from both perspectives-synthesis and applications. These two fillers, extensively used in the last few years due to their remarkable properties, induce a high value character to the composite materials. On the other hand, polysulfone is one the most used polymers for preparing polymeric membranes due to its high versatility in a wide range of solvents and also to the properties of this remarkable polymer. All types of synthesis method were presented and also a large number of applications from industrial to biomedical were presented and discussed.
