Functionalization of reverse osmosis membrane with titania nanotube and polyacrylic acid for enhanced antiscaling properties

Membrane surface scaling is a major challenge in reverse osmosis (RO) desalination process that could irreversibly deteriorate the membrane filtration efficiency. In this study, a hydrophilic coating layer was introduced onto the polyamide (PA) layer of self-developed thin film nanocomposite (TFN) m...
