COMPOSITE MEMBRANES AND METHODS FOR MAKING SUCH MEMBRANES

摘要

Membranes and methods for making membranes are disclosed. The membranes (10) include a polymeric matrix (16) and a particulate material immobilized within the matrix. The membrane may further include a skin layer (19) having randomly spaced surface pores (21). The membranes may find particular application in methods and apparatus for removing organic compounds from a biological fluid as part of a pathogen inactivation treatment.
