Abstract

Asymmetric ultrafiltration flat sheet membranes were prepared by phase inversion method to produce new hydrophilic membranes from hydrophobic PVC by partially dehydrochlorination process with NaOH solution (1, 3, 5) molarity then grafting copolymerization with acrylamide via grafting-from method. The efficient grafting was at graft 3M membrane as proved by PWF and other related characterization of membranes, also the graft 3M membranes with 3 wt.%PVP  and 1wt% TiO2 display the efficient values

The discussion was conducted in a scientific atmosphere, and the student was awarded a Ph.D. degree with a (Pass ) grade after completing all the modifications that were made by the discussants.
