Issue Date: | 1-Dec-2006 | Citation: | Ong, S.L., Hu, J.Y., Biryulin, Yu.F., Polotskaya, G.A. (2006-12-01). Fullerene-containing polymer membranes for rejection of estrogenic compounds in water. Fullerenes Nanotubes and Carbon Nanostructures 14 (2-3) : 463-466. ScholarBank@NUS Repository. | Abstract: | Asymmetric membranes based on compositions of fullerene C 60 and hydrophobic polymer, polyphenylene oxide containing up to 10 wt.% C 60 , were prepared with the aim of study on removing estrogenic pollutants from water. Efficiency of asymmetric membranes to estrone rejection was estimated in adsorption and ultrafiltration processes. Membrane containing 2 wt.% C 60 showed the fastest adsorption rate in the limiting adsorption stage. In the deadend filtration, all kinds of membranes demonstrated very good estrone rejection (more than 95%). Fullerenecontaining membranes exhibited higher flux than pure polyphenylene oxide membranes. | Source Title: | Fullerenes Nanotubes and Carbon Nanostructures | URI: | http://scholarbank.nus.edu.sg/handle/10635/87669 | ISSN: | 1536383X |
