Abstract
Various kind of solutions need to be separated, purified, and concentrated using membranes in the field of industries. However, when the solution contains strong acids, the use of membrane is limited. Acid resistant membrane currently available in market does not show high efficiency of flux. This review explains the causes and mechanisms of changes in surface properties and performance of polyamide membranes when exposed to acidic solutions, and this can be used in the development of a membrane with acid resistance and high flux.
