The effect of anionic surfactant on the surface structure of nanofiltration membranes

The effect of anionic surfactant on the surface structure of nanofiltration membranesAbstract: The effect of cleaning bath – sodium dodecyl sulphate solution on the surface structure of the polymer membrane used during nanofiltration of concentrated salt solutions have been presented in this paper. It was found that the use of the cleaning bath with sodium dodecyl sulphate caused a significant reduction in the separation and permeability possibilities of tested membrane.
