摘要

In the area of water purification, nanotechnology provides efficient removal of pollutants and germs. Electrospun nanofibers membrane has a potential for water purification due to its high large surface area, and good mechanical strength. In the present study, PAMAM dendrimers composite nylon-6 nanofibers membrane was prepared by crosslinking method using glutaraldehyde. Modified membrane has drastically improved water purification efficiency. Further, the efficacy of the modified membrane can be renewed by mere exposure of the saturated membrane with the solution having acidic pH. The modified membrane can be used as an effective tool for water purification.
