The present work focuses on the fabrication and characterization of polysulfone-based organoclay nanocomposite materials (PSFH1–3, PSFB1–3) via a solution casting technique as promising breast anticancer agents
Different compositions of polysulfone and organoclay were used to investigate the role of these nanofillers on the morphological, thermal, and mechanical properties
Summary
Membrane technology is presently overrun in various industrial fields, such as food, chemical, automotive, electronic, and other important industrial processes [1,2,3]. Fouling issues are an obstacle associated with membrane infiltration used in wastewater treatment. This weakness can lead to problems in separation process efficiency and to frequent maintenance of membrane operations [4]. Research has aimed to produce polymer nanocomposite membranes with enhanced performance for different applications. Halloysites and bentonites are widely used in many industrial applications. Their natural abundance, low-cost, high cation exchange capacity (CEC), swelling behaviors, adsorption properties, and large surface area are the driving force behind their widespread use [12]. Smectite clays like montmorillonite (the main constituent of the bentonite) have the chemical formula of bentonite as (Na,Ca)0.33(Al,Mg)2(Si4O10)(OH)2−·nH2O [14]
