Author/Year Membrane Characteristics of optimized membrane Applications Contact Angle (·) Porosity (%) Tensile Strength (N/mm) Pure Water Flux (L/m h) Rejection (%)

The document summarizes research on composite membranes containing titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles for various applications including wastewater treatment. It provides a table comparing characteristics such as porosity, tensile strength, pure water flux, and rejection rates of different composite membranes developed in several studies between 2005-2018. The composite membranes were made of polymers like PVDF, PSf, PAN, PES blended with TiO2 nanoparticles and provided benefits such as higher water flux and better removal of contaminants compared to bare membranes.
