From biological membranes to biomimetic model membranes
Biological membranes play an essential role in the cellular protection as well as in the control and the transport of nutrients. Many mechanisms such as molecular recognition, enzymatic catalysis, cellular adhesion and membrane fusion take place into the biological membranes. In 1972, Singer et al. provided a membrane model, called fluid mosaic model, in which each leaflet of the bilayer is for...
متن کاملIonic resistance and permselectivity tradeoffs in anion exchange membranes.
Salinity gradient energy technologies, such as reverse electrodialysis (RED) and capacitive mixing based on Donnan potential (Capmix CDP), could help address the global need for noncarbon-based energy. Anion exchange membranes (AEMs) are a key component in these systems, and improved AEMs are needed in order to optimize and extend salinity gradient energy technologies. We measured ionic resista...
متن کاملHydrophobic Ceramic Membranes for Water Desalination
Hydrophilic ceramic membranes (tubular and planar) made of TiO2 and Al2O3 were efficiently modified with non-fluorinated hydrophobic grafting molecules. As a result of condensation reaction between hydroxyl groups on the membrane and reactive groups of modifiers, the hydrophobic surfaces were obtained. Ceramic materials were chemically modified using three various non-fluorinated grafting agent...
متن کاملPerforated Monolayers for Enhanced Permselectivity in Chemical Biological Barrier Membranes
One of the Army’s primary research aims is to improve the survivability of soldiers in combat zones. One area of concern is the possibility of attack by chemical warfare agents. Current protective gear, while providing excellent protection, is heavy, bulky, and reduces the combat effectiveness of the wearer. Ideally, the next generation of protective gear will be no more cumbersome than the sta...
متن کاملMicroporous Silica Based Membranes for Desalination
This review provides a global overview of microporous silica based membranes for desalination via pervaporation with a focus on membrane synthesis and processing, transport mechanisms and current state of the art membrane performance. Most importantly, the recent development and novel concepts for improving the hydro-stability and separating performance of silica membranes for desalination are ...
