A superwetting forward osmosis membrane was prepared by grafting a zwitterion (2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine, MPC) onto the polyamide membrane layer via atom transfer radical polymerization (ATRP) to enhance antifouling property. The modification of the hydrophilic layer was confirmed by the characterization including Fourier-transform IR spectroscopy (FTIR), XPS, and contact angle goniometer. Moreover, membrane antifouling performance was evaluated by dynamic membrane fouling test using bovine-serum-albumin (BSA) and sodium alginate (SA). The grafted membranes not only showed high fouling resistance after being exposed to up to 500 ppm SA for 10 h, but also demonstrated excellent water flux recovery with the presence of up to 1000 ppm BSA, which was significantly improved as compared to the unmodified membrane. Robust hydration layer formed by the grafted zwitterion polymer could act as a phys. and energy barrier preventing attachment of organic foulants on the membrane surface, thus significantly improving membrane fouling resistance. In the experiment, the researchers used many compounds, for example, Trimesoylchloride (cas: 4422-95-1Category: chlorides-buliding-blocks).
Trimesoylchloride (cas: 4422-95-1) belongs to organic chlorides. Chlorinated organic compounds are found in nearly every class of biomolecules and natural products including alkaloids, terpenes, amino acids, flavonoids, steroids, and fatty acids. The haloform reaction, using chlorine and sodium hydroxide, is also able to generate alkyl halides from methyl ketones, and related compounds. Chloroform was formerly produced thus.Category: chlorides-buliding-blocks
