In this study, a novel, oxidized poly (arylene sulfide sulfone) (O-PASS) nanofibrous membrane filter was successfully fabricated for the effective removal of particulate matter. PASS was electrospun into a nanofibrous membrane with an average nanofiber diameter of 0.31 µm and basis weight of 3 g/m. These specifications were chosen as they showed high particulate matter removal efficiency (99.98%), low pressure drop (68 Pa), and high quality factor Q (0.125 Pa). In addition, the filtration mechanism of the PASS nanofibrous membrane was intuitively revealed by simulating the intercepted particular distributions and motion paths of particles. After a simple oxidation treatment, the O-PASS nanofibrous membrane was successfully built up. The microstructure and morphology showed little change compared with the PASS nanofiber, but the oxidation treatment significantly improved the mechanical properties of the membrane from 1.51 MPa to 4.92 MPa. More importantly, the O-PASS nanofibrous membrane still exhibited high removal efficiency after high temperature, acid, alkali, or organic solvent treatments. Overall, O-PASS nanofibrous membranes are promising high-performance filter materials with high temperature and corrosion resistance.

Constructing a nanofibrous membrane with high flow rate surface pore structure and high-density ligand chemical structure is a promising strategy to balance the trade-off between high flow rates and high adsorption capacity for protein separation and purification. Herein, a nanofiber-based ion-exchange chromatography membrane with a periodic diagonal surface structure and high ionic strength ligands was fabricated using dispersion cross-linking, wet coating, and template printing with a three-wire diagonal woven mesh. For this membrane, EVOH nanofibers were used as skeleton, glutaraldehyde (GA) as cross-linking agent, and quaternized chitosan (QCS) as binder and functional ligand.

: Postoperative abdominal adhesion is a prevalent complication following abdominal surgery, with the incidence of adhesion reaching up to 90%, which may precipitate a range of adverse outcomes. Although fibrous membranes loaded with various anti-inflammatory or other drugs have been proposed for anti-adhesion, most of them suffer from drug-induced adverse effects. : In this study, a lecithin-based electrospun polylactic acid (PLA) nanofibrous membrane (L/P-NM) was developed for the prevention of postoperative abdominal adhesion, utilizing the hydration lubrication theory.

In this study, polysulfone/polyvinylpyrrolidone (PSf/PVP, 20 wt%/5 wt%)-based ultrafiltration (UF) membranes reinforced with different ratios (0.5 and 1 wt%) of cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) and cellulose nanofibres (CNFs) were prepared by the phase inversion method. The effect of CNC, CNF, and CNC-CNF reinforcement on the morphology, roughness, crystallinity, porosity, average pore size, mechanical properties, and filtration performance of PSf/PVP-based membrane was investigated.

Facemask materials have been under constant development to optimize filtration performance, wear comfort, and general resilience to chemical and mechanical stress. While single-use polypropylene meltblown membranes are the established go-to material for high-performing mask filters, they are neither sustainable nor particularly resistant to sterilization methods. Herein an in-depth analysis is provided of the sterilization efficiency, filtration efficiency, and breathing resistance of selected aerosol filters commonly implemented in facemasks, with a particular focus on the benefits of nanofibrous filters.
