THE SURFACE
A SURFACE THAT RESISTS ATTACHMENT.
A SURFACE THAT RESISTS ATTACHMENT.

↗

↗
Surfaces of identical charges repel eachother
At typical neutral-pH conditions, the hydrated surface layer is negatively charged. Repulsion helps limit attachment of similarly charged contaminants.
Easily wetable, less oil adhesion
The hydrophilic surface of SiC favours contact with water. Water passes through the membrane so readily that oils are rejected and naturally repelled.
Set and forget membranes
Cross-flow sweeps along the membrane channels, carrying all loosely retained particles away from the surface continuously.
