*Abstract
This patent-pending polymeric ultrafiltration membrane, developed through a novel manufacturing technique, offers unprecedented narrow pore size distribution at the nanoscale. Designed to meet the need for smaller and more uniform pore size, these membranes have pore diameter variations ranging from 1 to 1.2 standard diameters—a measurement never before achieved in commercial production.
The simple manufacturing method significantly improves particle selectivity and separation capability by combining a standard industry process with the self-assembly ability of block polymers. The result is the fast, efficient, and low-cost production of greatly improved membranes.
The membranes can be used in high-end ultrafiltration applications, including pharmaceutical manufacturing, water filtration (including the safe removal of viruses), and medical research.
