Preparation and Characterization of the Tubular Ceramic Membrane of Tin Dioxide

Abstract

In this work, tin dioxide was chosen to make tubular ceramic membrane. The morphology was characterized by SEM, XRD and Poremaster. The SEM analysis reveals that the distribution of membrane pore is uniform. The average pore size is 2 μm. Pure water flux is 5.26 m3Superscript text•m-2•h-1 at 0.1 Mpa. Porosity of tin dioxide membrane is 40%.
