Abstract
⸠We demonstrate that ALD is a simple and effective technique to modify PTFE membranes. ⸠Strong adhesion between alumina and PTFE was evidenced by a harsh ultrasonication. ⸠The effective pore size and surface hydrophilicity could be well controlled. ⸠The retention property of PTFE membranes could be improved at no expense of flux. ⸠The modified membranes also afford remarkably enhanced fouling resistance.
