(1) Measured by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy in deionized water. Membranes were first equilibrated in 0.5M NaCl solution (pAEM was in 0.1 M HCl solution) and then rinsed with deionized water before measurement. (2) AEM, CEM, mAEM, mCEM: calculated from potential measurements across membrane between 0.1 and 0.5 M NaCl solutions at 20°C. pAEM, pCEM: calculated from potential measurements across membrane between 0.02 and 0.6 M HCl solutions at 20°C. (3) Measured by pressuring water through an unsupported wet membrane mounted onto a plastic cylinder with 48 mm inside diameter. (4) Maximum operating temperatire of 60°C at pH 0-12, capability to operate up to 80°C at pH 4-10; contact Saltworks for specific application fit.
> Storage and handling
Membranes are packaged by roll or sheets in a water/propylene glycol antifreeze solution. Soak membranes in water or 5 wt% NaCl solution before using.
