Cellulose Acetate Nanofiltration Membranes for Cadmium Remediation

In this work, cellulose acetate (CA) nanofiltration (NF) membranes were prepared via non-solvent phase inversion technique (NIPS). Polymer concentration was varied from 22 to 25 wt% in order to study its effect on the membrane properties. The fabricated membranes were characterized in terms of morphological analysis using scanning electron microscopy (SEM), contact angle, water content, water p...

Studies of Electrospun Cellulose Acetate Nanofibrous Membranes

The objective of this work was to study the feasibility of preparing cellulose acetate (CA) nanofibrous membranes by electrospinning with single solvent and their potential applying as affinity membrane. CA solutions in dichloromethane (DCM), formic acid, acetic acid and trifluoroacetic acid (TFA) were electrospun into nonwoven fiber membranes, respectively. The scanning electron microscope (SE...

Rapid cellulose acetate electrophoresis. I. Serum proteins.

A method of electrophoresis utilizing cellulose acetate is described wherein quantitation of serum protein fractions by densitometry is accomplished within 2 hr. of initiation of the procedure. The densitometer was found to have a linear response to amido black dye. Albumin and y-globulin demonstrated equal dye-binding characteristics. Combined with the absence of albumin trailing, this has aff...
