Maltose can be produced by starch hydrolysis using any kind of hydrolytic process. One of the methods to separate a mixture of both compounds is using porous membrane. In this research, a novel type of hybrid membrane was prepared from a mixture of cellulose acetate and silica fume. Silica fume is widely used in the domain of construction as cement material, whereas in this research silica fume was successfully used as membrane material. Various compositions of membrane dope solutions were prepared for obtaining the membranes used for separation of starch and maltose. Such synthesized membranes demonstrate a good performance in separation processes. The best performance is achieved when the composition of cellulose acetate in membrane dope solution is 15 % (w/w) in N,N-dimethylacetamide solvent and the mass ratio between cellulose acetate and silica fume is 4:1. For this composition, the rejection of membranes towards starch and maltose is 87 and 2 %, respectively, at working pressure of 3 bar and compaction time of 2 h. Infrared spectrum indicates no new peaks are found compared to raw materials’ spectral peaks. Thus, it can be concluded that the interaction between the cellulose acetate and silica fume is merely a physical type. From the observation of cross-sectional SEM images, we can remark that the morphology of such a membrane is porous. X-ray diffractogram indicates that the synthesized membranes are amorphous. © 2013 Iran Polymer and Petrochemical Institute.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Author keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Cellulose acetates,Cross-sectional SEM image,Hydrolytic process,N , N-dimethylacetamide,Porous membranes,Separation process,Starch derivatives,X-ray diffractograms[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Indexed keywords” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]Cellulose acetate,Porous membrane,Separation,Silica fume[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”Funding details” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]This research is funded by I-MHERE ITB.[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][vc_empty_space][megatron_heading title=”DOI” size=”size-sm” text_align=”text-left”][vc_column_text]https://doi.org/10.1007/s13726-013-0132-8[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][vc_column_inner width=”1/4″][vc_column_text]Widget Plumx[/vc_column_text][/vc_column_inner][/vc_row_inner][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_separator css=”.vc_custom_1624528584150{padding-top: 25px !important;padding-bottom: 25px !important;}”][/vc_column][/vc_row]
