Hydrophobicity Enhancement of Poly (Vinylidene Fluoride-co-Hexafluoro Propylene) for Membrane Distillation

Poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene), (PVdF-co-HFP) hollow fibre membrane was prepared by phase inversion method using different concentrations of PVP as a pore former additives in the dope solution. Surface modification was done using a formic acid through immersion technique. It wa...
