The structures and synthesis of polyzwitterions (“polybetaines”) are reviewed, emphasizing
the literature of the past decade. Particular attention is given to the general challenges …

Protein‐fouling of membranes has negative effects on the wide applications of membrane
materials, such as poly (vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF), poly (ether sulfone)(PES)/polysulfone …

Fouling is likely the most important obstacle to the use of membranes in many applications,
especially in those that the feed contains high concentrations of organics such as oil and …

Polyethersulfone (PES) membranes containing cysteine-functionalized graphene oxide
(CGO) were prepared to enhance the ultrafiltration performance such as water flux and …

Charged (macro) molecules are essential components in natural materials and organisms;
thus the rational design of biomimetic materials requires a holistic understanding of structure …

Membrane separations are simple to operate, scalable, versatile, and energy efficient, but
their broader use is curtailed by fouling or performance decline due to feed component …

Degradable polymers promote sustainability, mitigate environmental impact, and facilitate
biological applications. Tailoring degradable polymers is challenging because installing …

The present paper explores the role of Titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles in the
improvement of performance of polyamide thin-film composite reverse osmosis (RO) …

We investigated the nature of graphene surface doping by zwitterionic polymers and the
implications of weak in-plane and strong through-plane screening using a novel sample …

Antithrombogenicity is one of the most critical properties required for materials used in
biomedical devices, particularly in devices that contact blood. The antithrombogenicity of …
