Membrane Characterisation

Understanding the various characterisation parameters of your membrane, such as pore size, pore size distribution, membrane charge, surface roughness and solute or particle rejection characteristics are important when trying to understand the factors impacting membrane performance. Characterisation also forms an important aspect of performing membrane autopsy and cleaning studies.

Our laboratory facilities at Membrane Works are able to conduct extensive membrane characterisation which we are able to compare with our extensive database of membrane materials and provide insights in to the performance and beahaviour of your membrane materials.

• Scanning Electron Microscopy
• Atomic Force Microscopy
• Porometery
• Contact Angle
• Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR)
• Tensile Testing
• Flux, Rejection or Selectivity Testing
• Zeta Potential

Other testing procedures also available, give us a call to discuss your exact needs.
