Advances in material science promise the development of a new generation of ultrapermeable membranes (UPMs) for reverse osmosis (RO) desalination and water reclamation, which will lead to reduced footprint and lower capital costs. However, due to the attendant increased concentration-polarization (C

The Solutocapillary Convection (SC) hypothesis contends that macrovoid (MV) growth in dry-cast membranes is governed by a solutal-Marangoni convection-induced force caused by the rapid evaporation of volatile solvent from the liquid/gas interface, a viscous drag force, and a gravity-induced buoyancy
