Production of PDMS/PVDF thin film composite membrane for CO2/N2 separation

In this thesis,a thin film composite(TFC)membrane was prepared for separation of carbon dioxide(CO2)and nitrogen (N2).The main purpose of this research is to study the performance of polydimethylsiloxane(PDMS) /polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) thin film composite membrane in term of permeability and s...
