Fabrication and characterization of novel SiO2-PAMPS/PSF hybrid ultrafiltration membrane with high water flux

► The core-shell SiO2-PAMPS hybrid nanoparticles were synthesized. ► Novel SiO2-PAMPS/PSF hybrid ultrafiltration membranes were firstly prepared via a wet phase-inversion method. ► The hybrid membranes have high water flux and excellent stability.
