Multilayered Bio-Based Electrospun Membranes: A Potential Porous Media for Filtration Applications

Abstract

Among the different polymeric membranes, electrospun membranes have shown promising performance for filtration applications through the facile and controlled preparation method leading to tailored material structure. Furthermore, multilayered bio-based electrospun membranes exhibited superior filtration performance, considering they are eco-friendly with superior mechanical properties and better adsorption efficiency compared to the single-layered electrospun membranes. The aim of this mini-review is to reveal the current state-of-art development of multilayered bio-based electrospun membranes and to provide new insights into the future of tailored membranes toward practical applications. © Copyright © 2020 Neisiany, Enayati, Kazemi-Beydokhti, Das and Ramakrishna.
