Abstract

The cover image by Sujith Athiyanathil and Smitha Manholi shows FE SEM images of surface and crosssectional morphologies of Poly (ε-caprolactone) (PCL) porous asymmetric membranes fabricated in six different solvents using the NIPS method and using water as a non-solvent. This study presents the fabrication of poly (ε-caprolactone) phase inversion membrane, which is a biodegradable polymer in six different casting solvents: N, N-Dimethyl formamide (DMF), N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP), Tetra Hydro Furan (THF), Tri ethyl phosphate (TEP), 1,4-Dioxane, and Acetone. The project aims to study the effects of casting solvents on the precipitation kinetics, membrane morphology, and permeation performance for water filtration applications. DOI: 10.1002/app.51720
