Factors Affecting Water Absorption Of Hydrophilic Polymeric Membrane Based On Crosslinked Empty Fruit Bunch And Polyvinyl Alcohol

The hydrophilic polymeric membrane (HPM) was made up from treated empty fruit bunch (EFB) fibers impregnated with polyvinyl alcohol (PVOH) solution which contains citric acid (CTR). The production of HPM involved 3 steps which was step 1 (EFB treatment process using prehydrolysis and alkali treatmen...
