Abstract
⺠Mechanically stable sodium alginate based membrane with high flux and selectivity. ⺠Reduced relaxational effects through control of glass composition of membrane. ⺠Increased selectivity of membrane as thickness decreases. ⺠Increased crosslinking of membrane polymer as thickness decreases due to longer periods of solvent evaporation. ⺠Results in increased hydrophobicity of membrane as thickness decreases which explains improved selectivity.
