Trade-off in membrane distillation with monolithic omniphobic membranes
Omniphobic membranes are attractive for membrane distillation because of their superior wetting resistance. Here the authors develop a particle-free approach for rapid fabrication of monolithic omniphobic membranes and elucidate the underlying mechanism of wetting resistance-vapor permeability trade...

| description | Omniphobic membranes are attractive for membrane distillation because of their superior wetting resistance. Here the authors develop a particle-free approach for rapid fabrication of monolithic omniphobic membranes and elucidate the underlying mechanism of wetting resistance-vapor permeability trade-off in membrane distillation desalination. |
