Finally, in Chap. 8, attempts are made to correlate the AFM parameters, such as nodule and pore sizes, to the membrane performance data. Membranes used for a variety of membrane processes, including reverse osmosis, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration, microfiltration, gas and vapor separation, pervaporation, and other membrane separation processes, are covered in this chapter. AFM parameters are also correlated to membrane biofouhng. This chapter also includes appUcations of AFM to characterize biomedical materials, including artificial organs cind drug release. 

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is widely used for surface characterization and analysis of polymers, biomedical materials and paper. The technique was developed by Kai Siegbahn in the 1960s, who realized that technical development had come to a point where the photoelectric effect discovered by Einstein could be used for surface chemical analysis. The photoelectric effect is the phenomenon that occurs when a material is exposed to photons with sufficiently high energy and electrons contained in the material with a lower binding energy are emitted. Therefore, we can write ...
