By this direct synthesis the number of technological steps can be reduced which is the main advantage of the method. The produced layers are well joined with the alumina support and the reaction can be adjusted by various technological parameters. The dried and sintered coatings are characterized by X-Ray diffraction, FESEM and AFM. In addition, pore size distribution and filtration properties are investigated and discussed.ensol-gel technologyceramic ultrafiltrationnanofiltration membrane666620journal article
