Abstract
In this study we investigate synthesis of a new composite membrane polysulfone – polyethylene imine - carbon nanotubes through a new technique which consists in introducing polyethylene imine in polysulfone membrane during coagulation process in water. The produced membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy, FT-IR spectroscopy and have been used in the separation of bovine serum albumin or heavy metals retention from aqueous solutions..
