tannins and acetyl-acetonate

With diverse selectivity, higher permeance, and good antifouling property, loose polyamide nanofiltration (NF) membranes can be potentially deployed in various bioseparation applications. However, the loose NF membrane with a low crosslinking degree generally suffers from the alkali-induced pore swelling during chemical cleaning, resulting in degradation of separation performance with time. In this work, we conceive a novel strategy to tailor the separating layer through alkaline post-etching following the interfacial polymerization process, where piperazine and tannic acid (TA) were used as water-phase monomers, and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) and ferric acetylacetonate were employed as organic monomers in
