Fabrication of antifouling thin-film composite nanofiltration membrane via surface grafting of polyethyleneimine followed by zwitterionic modification
TL;DR: In this article, an antifouling thin-film composite (TFC) membrane having zwitterionic PEI moieties was fabricated through the layer-by-layer interfacial polymerization (LbL-IP) via grafting hyperbranched polyethyleneimine (PEI) onto the polyamide surface, followed by in-situ N-methylation of PEI and then quaternization using 3-bromopropionic acid to form zwatterionic PEIs.
