Abstract
CF4 glow discharge treatment; of asymmetric polysulfone membranes has been investigated by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), atomic fo rce microscopy (AFM), and gas permeability measurements. Oxygen and ni trogen gas permeability and permselectivity through the polysulfone su bstrate are found to be strongly influenced by the plasma-processing p arameters.
