| General note | The kidneys are essential for preserving the body's internal balance. However, kidney<br/>illnesses impact millions of people globally and pose a serious threat to public health.<br/>Hemodialysis membranes based on polyethersulfone (PES) can offer patients with renal<br/>impairment a life-sustaining therapeutic method. Nevertheless, the intrinsic hydrophobic<br/>nature of PES contributes to an inefficiency of uremic toxin clearance and a<br/>compromised hemocompatibility. This work evaluates the effects of hydrophilic<br/>additives, SiO2 nanoparticles, on the functionality of polyethersulfone (PES) membranes.<br/>NMP was used as the solvent in the non-solvent phase inversion procedure to create the<br/>membranes. Tensile testing, porosity, contact angle analysis, FTIR, and scanning electron<br/>microscopy were used to characterize the manufactured membranes. The SEM images<br/>demonstrated the successful fabrication of the membranes. Each membrane possessed a<br/>thin skin layer and an asymmetric porous framework. As a result of the synergistic effect,<br/>the membrane with the highest nanoparticles concentration performed better. The<br/>membrane having the highest nanoparticles concentration had excellent hydrophilicity,<br/>increased porosity, and a high-water retention capacity. Moreover, they showed a urea<br/>clearance of 76.5%, a pure water flux of 94 L/m²/h, and an outstanding BSA rejection of<br/>96.56%. RSM modelling was employed to determine the urea clearance that verified the<br/>ideal conditions for urea removal were concentrations of 1200 mg/L and 0.6 MPa. |
