Oleophobic coated membranes

摘要

The present invention relates to oleophobic filtration media including polymeric membranes and other substrates that are coated with polymerized substituted or unsubstituted para-xylene. A method of coating such substrates with polymerized substituted or unsubstituted para-xylene is also provided. The coated substrates possess both hydrophobic (water repellent) and oleophobic (oil repellent) properties.
