Cellulose acetate in fabrication of polymeric membranes: A review

Vahid Vatanpour et al.

Summary: Developing biodegradable polymers for filtration membrane fabrication is a major challenge in membrane science and technology. Cellulose acetate (CA) membranes, with their excellent film-forming property, chemical and mechanical stability, hydrophilicity, eco-friendliness, and cost-effectiveness, have been extensively used in various applications such as water and wastewater treatment, gas separation, and energy generation. Recent research has focused on modifying CA to improve permeability and stability.

Analysis of thermophoresis for separation of polystyrene microparticles in microfluidic devices

Antton Sanjuan et al.

Summary: The thermodiffusion phenomenon in size-based separation of polystyrene microparticles was analyzed numerically and experimentally. The results showed that under terrestrial conditions, polystyrene microsized particles of 5 μm and larger cannot be separated by thermophoresis in flow due to the gravity force.

Microfluidic-assisted production of poly(e-caprolactone) and cellulose acetate nanoparticles: effects of polymers, surfactants, and flow rate ratios

Atefe Sadeghi Lari et al.

Summary: This study compared two different microfluidic-assisted nanoparticles based on PCL and CA in terms of size, distribution, and morphology, finding that CA NPs had smaller average diameter and PDI than PCL NPs, and changing surface tension could increase PCL NPs diameter. Theoretical discussion on the impact of channel length on NP size suggested that smaller channel length led to more effective mixing.
