Summer 2011 REU Poster: Magnetically Responsive Membranes

Friday, July 22, 2011 2:30pm - 2:50pm EDT  
Host: Magnetically Responsive Membranes
By: Lynn Fogel, Researcher and Sierra Butcher, Researcher

This project involves the synthesis of magnetically responsive membranes in the form of magnetite incorporated polyurethane sponges. Current filtration methods require different pore size filters for each substance. These polyurethane sponges may be used for the filtration of multiple substances by applying magnetic fields in order to vary the pore size, allowing them to be washed and reused for future filtrations.

 

This virtual poster session will last 15 minutes, followed by 5 minutes of live discussion with the presenters.
