Optimization of Structure of Composite for Liquid Filtration Based on Membranes Produced by Electrospinning

Resumo

Use of nanofiber membranes produced by electrospinning is constrained due to their poor physicomechanical properties. Creation of composites based on them can not only broaden the area of their application but also improve the structural and performance properties of the membrane as a functional layer of filtering materials. A comparative study was made of the structural characteristics of individual membranes produced by electrospinning, composites based on them, and their relatives in the fluid filtration domain. Also, the layer-wise composite composition was optimized, which, besides high filtration efficiency, may ensure steady permeability and better physicomechanical properties of the material.
