Where PES-CNT is Polyethersulfone blended with carbon nanotubes, PES/TFC (TBAB) membrane is thin film composite Polyethersulfone membrane and the surface is treated by tetrabutylammonium bromide (TBAB), PSf/PSAB is blended Polysulfone with polysulphonyl amino benzamide (PSAB), and PS/Al metal is composite membrane of vapor deposition of aluminum metal on Polysulfone membrane.
