PREPARATION OF POLYVINYLIDENE FLUORIDE／POLYVINYL DIMETHYLSILOXANE COMPOSITE HOLLOW FIBER MEMBRANES AND THEIR SEPARATION PROPERTIES

Microporous polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fibre membranes were spun using the dry-wet phase inversion method. By means of dip-coating technique, a uniform coating with thickness of around 5-12μm of polyvinyl dimethylsiloxane (PVDMS) was formed on the surface of porous PVDF hollow fibers. The structural parameters of PVDF substrate membrane were estimated by gas permeation test. Using N2/O2 as the medium, the separation properties of PVDMS-PVDF composite hollow fiber membranes were also evaluated experimentally. The experimental data of both permeability and selectivity are in good agreement with the theoretical results predicted by the presented pore-distribution model, in order to obtain the compact composite membrane free of defects by the dip-coating technique, the thickness of PVDMS skin must be higher than 5μm.

MICROPOROUS INORGANIC MEMBRANES

Recent development in microporous inorganic membranes represents a significant advance in materials for separation and chemical reaction applications. This paper provides an in-depth review of synthesis and properties of two groups (amorphous and crystalline) of microporous inorganic membranes. Amorphous microporous silica membranes can be prepared by the sol-gel and phase separation methods. Flat sheet, tubular and hollow fiber amorphous carbon membranes have been fabricated by various pyrolysis methods from polymer precursors. A large number of synthesis methods have been developed to prepare good quality polycrystalline zeolite membranes. Several techniques, including vapor and liquid approaches, are reviewed for pore structure modification to prepare microporous inorganic membranes from mesoporous inorganic membranes. Chemical, microstructural and permeation properties of these microporous membranes are summarized and compared among the several microporous membranes discussed in this paper. Theory for gas permeation through microporous membranes is also reviewed, with emphasis on comparison of theoretical with the experimental data. These inorganic microporous membranes offer excellent separation properties by the mechanisms of preferential adsorption, selective configurational diffusion or molecular sieving.     

A review on the latest development of carbon membranes for gas separation

Inorganic membranes have been developed before 1945. The earlier application of inorganic membranes was primarily concentrate on military purpose. Carbon membrane is one type of porous inorganic membrane. Although the concept of carbon membrane for gas separation has been found in the early 1970, the interest to develop carbon membrane only increased, since Koresh and Soffer successfully prepared apparently crack-free molecular sieving hollow fiber carbon membranes. Nowadays, plenty of researchers have used different polymeric materials; including polyimides, to prepare carbon membranes by using pyrolysis. In general, carbon membranes can be divided into four major configurations: flat sheet, membrane supported on tube, capillary, and hollow fiber. Permeation properties of carbon membranes have been improved greatly in these 20 years. Carbon membranes offer advantages over polymeric membranes especially in terms of selectivity as well as thermal and chemical stability. More attention will be paid to carbon membranes in this century. This paper will review the development of carbon membranes in the last 30 years and give a clear future direction in research for carbon membrane.     

High-affinity sulfonated materials with transition metal counterions for enhanced protein separation in dual-layer hollow fiber membrane chromatography

High-affinity membrane materials have been successfully synthesized through a combination of the polymer sulfonation reaction with transition metal counterion exchange treatment. This type of promising materials were embodied for the first time with the aid of dual-layer hollow fiber technology for protein separation. Three types of immobilized metal affinity membranes (Cu(2+), Ni(2+) and Zn(2+) forms) were developed in this work and they all exhibited enhanced protein separation performance compared to the as-spun hollow fiber in H(+) form due to the strong affinity between transition metal counterions and target protein molecules. Ultimately, the high-purity target protein (>99%, w/w) could be achieved via the membrane in Cu(2+) form.     

Fabrication of polymer/fluoride-containing salts blend composite membranes for CO2 separation

Poly (N, N-dimethylaminoethyl methacrylate)-poly (ethylene glycol methyl ether methacrylate) (PDMAEMA-PEGMEMA) and cesium fluoride (CsF) were blended and used as the separation material of composite membranes. Hollow fiber composite membranes were fabricated by coating the blend on polysulfone (PSf) hollow fiber substrate. Introduction of fluorine ion improved the separation performance of the membrane. The concentration of coating solution was adjusted to obtain a membrane with high permeance. The composite membrane showed good performance with the CO2 permeance of 30.4 GPU (1 GPU = 10^-6 cm³(STP)/(cm²·s·cmHg)), and selectivities to CO2/N2, CO2/CH4, CO2/H2 and O2/N2 of 47.2, 37.6, 1.75 and 4.70, respectively. Potassium fluoride (KF), due to its low cost, was also used as a substitute of CsF to prepare composite membrane and the permeation data showed that CsF can be replaced by KF. The effect of operating temperature on the permeation properties of the composite membrane was also investigated.     

Microscopic behavior of polyvinylpyrrolidone hydrophilizing agents on phase inversion polyethersulfone hollow fiber membranes for hemofiltration

In some biomedical applications, hollow fiber membranes are highly demanded with desirably asymmetric structures, characterized by a dense selective inner skin with which the blood is in contact and supported by porous outer-layer. In this work, such membranes have been successfully prepared by appropriately adjusting membrane manufacturing parameters. Different molecular weights of polyvinylpyrrolidones (PVPs) were used as the hydrophilizing additives for membrane spinning in order to examine their underlying effects on membrane physicochemical properties, morphological structure, solute rejection behavior and hemofiltration performance. Numerous state-of-the-art characterizations on the resultant membranes showed that the hollow fiber membranes spun with the PVP having a molecular weight of 360K as the additive have the most hydrophilic, smooth and highly net negative charged inner surfaces. These membranes also exhibit the best hemofiltration performance in terms of the characteristically least fouling behavior with a normalized flux above 90%, the highest retention of serum albumin for more than 90%, and the best clearance for the simulated β₂-microglobulin toxin in blood waste.
