A novel sensing material based on pyrene doped polyethersulfone worm-like structured thin film is developed using a facile technique for detection of nitroaromatic explosive vapours. The formation of π-π stacking in the thin fluorescent film allows a highly sensitive fluorescence quenching which is detectable by the naked eye in a response time of a few seconds.

a microporous bisphenol a diglycidyl ether (dgeba) epoxified-polyethersulfone (pes) blend membrane (epes membrane) was prepared through dry-wet phase inversion. this study attempts to correlate the changes in membrane physical and chemical properties when the epes membranes were exposed to different durations of dry-phase inversion, towards the separation efficiency of carcinogen chromium (vi)....

Polyethersulfone-sulfonated polyethersulfone (PES-SPES)/NaY zeolite/nylon sandwich structure membranes were prepared and used to adsorb Cu2+ from water. The adsorption kinetics, isotherm, dynamic experiment, reusability discussed. experimental data showed that the Langmuir isotherm model, Dubinin–Radushkevich (D-R) pseudo-first-order kinetic model can well represent of on membrane, indicating a...

Characterization of Polyethersulfone (PES) and Polyvinylidene Difluoride (PVDF) Resistive Membranes under In Vitro Staphylococcus aureus Challenge by Sandra Nakasone Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University Date:_______________________ Approved: ___________________________ Bruce Klitzman, Supervisor ___________________________ William (Monty) Reichert ___________________________ Fan...

A new type of wood plastic composite, Eucalyptus/PES(Polyethersulfone) blend, was developed. It was designed to be used in LS (Laser Sintering) with reduced energy usage with cost savings. The preparation of Eucalyptus/PES blend and part sintering were under fixed processing conditions and parameters. Through mechanical testing, it was discovered that the strength of prototypes is low due to th...

Polyethersulfone (PES) is one of the most important polymeric materials and is widely used in separation fields. PES and PES-based membranes show outstanding oxidative, thermal and hydrolytic stability as well as good mechanical and film-forming properties. PES membranes could endure many kinds of sterilized methods, including epoxy ethane gas, steam, and γ-ray. Furthermore, PES-based membranes...
