Feasibility of recycled newspaper as cellulose source for regenerated cellulose membrane fabrication
An environmental friendly regenerated cellulose membrane (RCM) was successfully prepared via NaOH/urea aqueous solution system by utilizing recycled newspaper (RNP) as the cellulose source. The morphological and chemical structure of resulting membrane were characterized using scanning electron micr...

An environmental friendly regenerated cellulose membrane (RCM) was successfully prepared via NaOH/urea aqueous solution system by utilizing recycled newspaper (RNP) as the cellulose source.

Results from FTIR and XRD verified that the transparent RCM possesses cellulose II structure.

Pure water flux, water content, water contact angle, porosity, and pore size of the resulting membrane were also measured.
