Overview: Presents comprehensive studies on the chemical and physical behaviors of membrane surfaces.Provides a unique synthesis of our knowledge on the role of surface engineering in membrane science.Elaborate.Surface Engineering of Polymer Membranes covers the processes that modify membrane surfaces to improve their in-service performance, meaning, to confer surface properties which are different from the bulk properties. Purposes may be to minimize fouling, modulate hydrophilicity/ hydrophobicity, enhance biocompatibility, create diffusion barriers, provide functionalities, mimic biomembran
