Overview

ABSTRACT

When pressure is applied to dynamic interactive membranes consisting of triblock copolymer micelles, their morphologies can be modulated. Membranes with a wide range of porosities are available, which can regulate their filtration performance. Furthermore, the dynamism of the membrane has allowed for the local and global control of the mobility of micelles, thus providing the membrane with a self-healing capacity.
