Abstract
⺠Different membrane morphologies were obtained using dry-wet spinning technique. ⺠Phosphoric acid (PA) and PEG-400 were used as non-solvent additives in the PVDF dope. ⺠The plain PVDF membrane showed a finger-like structure with high permeability, overall porosity and low wetting resistance. ⺠The PVDF/PA membrane exhibited sponge-like structure with high surface porosity and wetting resistance. ⺠The PVDF/PA and PVDF/PEG-400 membranes presented relatively higher CO2 stripping flux than the plain membrane.
