membrane produced using NMP as the solvent followed by DMAc and lastly, DMF. This study indicated that solvent with higher boiling point (in this study, NMP has the highest boiling point) produced a desired NF in embrane with more finger-like structure. The diameters of pores in skin layer were meas...
