Hydrophilic Antifouling Thin-Film Nanocomposite Forward Osmosis Membranes: Effect of Zwitterion-Functionalized Carbon Nanofiber Modification

The polyamide (PA) active layer plays a key role in the permeation and antifouling properties of thin-film composite (TFC) membranes. In this study, we synthesized a nature-based zwitterionic thin-film nanocomposite (TFN) membrane with improved organic fouling resistance. Hydrophilic zwitterionic poly(sulfobetaine methacrylate) (PSBMA) was chemically introduced onto the surface of cellulose nanofibers (CNFs) to form CNF-g-PSBMA, which was subsequently incorporated into the PA selective layer.
