Porous asymmetric polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)/montmorillonite (MMT) hollow fiber mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) with different nano-clay loadings were prepared via wet phase inversion technique and was used for membrane contactor. The fabricated MMMs were characterized in terms of morphology, stru...
