as represented by the water contact angle values obtained on each of the membrane
surface, is shown in Fig. 18. As is seen in Fig. 18, nRGO-incorporated Ps membranes
demonstrate more hydrophilic surface compared with PS ultrafiltration membrane.
In reality, the presence of oxygenated functionalities in nRGO supports the increase
of hydrophilic behavior of the skin surface of PS/nRGO composite membranes [38].
They also investigated the performance of the membranes in terms of pure water
