Abstract: In this study, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF)-graphene oxide (GO) membranes were obtained by employing triethyl phosphate (TEP) as a solvent. GO nanosheets were prepared and characterized in terms of scanning and transmission electron microscopy (SEM and TEM, respectively), atomic force microscopy (AFM), X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS), chemical analysis and inductively coupled plasma mass spectroscopy (ICP). Two di erent phase inversion techniques, Non-Solvent Induced Phase Separation (NIPS) and Vapour-Induced Phase Separation (VIPS)/NIPS, were applied to study the e ect of fabrication procedure on the membrane structure and properties. Membranes were characterized by SEM, AFM, pore size, porosity, contact angle and mechanical tests, and finally tested for photocatalytic methylene blue (MB+) degradation under visible light irradiation. The e ect of di erent pH values of dye aqueous solutions on the photocatalytic eciency was investigated. Finally, the influence of NaCl salt on the MB+ photodegradation process was also evaluated.
