Abstract
⺠Strength of hydration shell significantly affect ability of ions to permeate through thin film membranes. ⺠The hydrated radii of exhibit a strong correlation with ionic potential for cations but not for anions. ⺠During membrane filtration, hydration free energy plays a significant on sticky behavior of ions on the retentate site. ⺠Ions that can easily lose their hydration waters (e.g., K+, Na+) can partition to the membrane phase.
