Nanoparticles as Sacrificial Pore Fillers for the Fabrication of High-Permeability Polyelectrolyte Multilayer Membranes
nanoparticles. However, Donnan exclusion remained the dominant separation mechanism. These results establish nanoparticles as effective sacrificial pore fillers, enabling PEM membranes to achieve superior performance compared to commercial nanofiltration membranes by reducing their energy requirements in separation processes.
