Surface modification of PVDF hollow fiber membrane to enhance hydrophobicity using organosilanes
This work investigates the membrane modification to enhance hydrophobicity aiming for applications as membrane contactors. The PVDF membranes were activated by NaOH and by plasma activation followed by grafting using three organosilanes. For the NaOH, the contact angle of original membranes (68°) wa...
