Comparison Between Treated and Untreated Zeolite Towards the Performance of Polyethersulfone Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMMs) for O2/N2 Gas Separation

Mixed Matrix Membranes (MMMs) is one of the alternative ways to increase the performance of plain polymeric membrane. In this study, the performance of MMMs using treated zeolite and the ones using untreated zeolite were compared to see the effect of the coupling agent towards the separation of O...
