Abstract
Conducting polymers are unique polymers that conduct electricity, but do not typically serve as the active material for water filtration membranes. In 2014, our group presented an integrated nanocomposite of conjugated polypyrrole and polysulfone to make ultrafiltration membranes (Y. Liao, T. P. Farrell, G. R. Guillen, M. Li, J. A. T. Temple, X.-G. Li, E. M. V. Hoek and R. B. Kaner, Mater. Horiz., 2014, 1, 58–64, https://doi.org/10.1039/C3MH00049D). This reflection briefly reviews the impacts in the field of conjugated polymer-based water filtration membranes, and the significance on the subsequent research in our group.
