The preparation method of vapor permeable membrance and composition
The present invention relates to the preparation method and the composition of diffusion barrier, especially relate to the preparation and the composition of vapor permeable membrance.
The commercial Application of membrane technology has more than 30 year history.Mainly contain micro-filtration, ultrafiltration, electrodialysis, counter-infiltration, gas separation and infiltration evaporation etc. with the membrane technology that is separated into purpose.Membrane technology also begins to be used for aspects such as reaction and detection in recent years, discharges as membrane bioreactor, membrane catalytic reactor, film sensors and control etc.Membrane technology is because its process is simple, and application is wide, and low power consumption and other advantages is subjected to countries in the world and payes attention to.Domestic also existing many-sided research and application have been used for as processes such as micro-filtration, ultrafiltration, electrodialysis, counter-infiltration and gas separation that high purity water is produced and chemical industry, environmental protection, food, agricultural and medicine and other fields.
Produce the higher alcohol of purity by Diluted Alcohol is concentrated, particularly produce absolute alcohol and select for use the infiltration evaporation membrane separation process and the extracting rectifying of routine to compare the special superiority of demonstration with sequence of constant boiling and rectification.Paid close attention to by countries in the world with the infiltrating and vaporizing membrane technical finesse azeotrope and the thing that closely boils, its high selectivity film is called as third generation film, is one of main goal of attack in the present domestic adventitia research.
Material selection and film development to this film both at home and abroad had a lot of reports, for example: polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) and vinylpyrrolidone grafting (PTFE-PVP), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polysulfones (PSF), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), shitosan (CS), cellulose acetate (CTA) etc., but the used film of external industry and pilot-scale (as the Betheniville of France, the Lurgi of Germany etc.) has only one kind of GFT, and this is a kind of composite membrane.Scrape in the polyacrylonitrile basement membrane by suitable crosslinked PVA and to form.Once reported separation α=400~450 of gained, infiltration flow rate J=1~2kg/m
2H.Once handle the alcohol-water azeotrope in this laboratory with the GFT film, recorded its α 〉=100, J=0.15kg/m
2H, industrial film size is about 50 * 50cm
2Mechanical strength and the service life of finding film in the lab scale of laboratory have much room for improvement.
The preparation method and the composition that the purpose of this invention is to provide a kind of vapor permeable membrance.
The preparation method of vapor permeable membrance is: a) preparation liquid preparation: polyvinyl alcohol (PVA-124) and distilled water are poured in the container in 1~1/2.4 ratio, and under 80~85 ℃ constant temperature, constantly stir, treat that PVA dissolves the back fully and continues to stir 20~30min.Should add distilled water at any time in the PVA course of dissolution, with the moisture content of compensate for evaporation, gained solution suction filtration is removed insoluble matter, and filtrate is stand-by.Shitosan (CS) and distilled water are poured in the container in 1/99 ratio, after the glacial acetic acid that adds weight such as CS again stirs 10min, placed 24 hours, CS promptly dissolves, and gained solution suction filtration is removed insoluble matter, and filtrate is stand-by.With above-mentioned PVA solution and CS solution blending, add 1% citric acid crosslinking agent (adding behind the crosslinking agent wiring solution-forming) solution again, and under 80~85 ℃ of constant temperatures, stir, part moisture content is removed in evaporation, obtains the preparation liquid of required viscosity, gets final product knifing behind the discontinuous degassing.B) knifing: will be affixed on the clean glass plate through PSF or the PAN basement membrane that water logging was steeped, catch up with, the preparation liquid behind the discontinuous degassing is scraped on basement membrane equably except that the bubble between basement membrane and the glass plate.C) solution evaporation: wet film allows solvent evaporate in the indoor infrared lamp irradiation of system film.D) preparation method of the shitosan (CS) among the said a is: the crab shell is cut into pieces; soaked 24 hours with diluted acid the washing back; after the hot water wash; in diluted alkaline, soak and took out in 24 hours; extremely neutral with hot water wash; repeat aforesaid operations and make the chitin crude product; crude product decolours with potassium permanganate and leather acid; get the white plates chitin; chitin soaked 24 hours down in 60~65 ℃ of constant temperatures with 50% NaOH, and hot water repeats once after cleaning, and sloughed that acetyl group makes the shitosan product in the chitin; deacetylation 85%, viscosity are 1200cp.E) PVA solution among the said a and CS solution blending, its preparation liquid blending ratio is the PVA/CS=4/1(weight ratio).
The composition of vapor permeable membrance is by polyvinyl alcohol (PVA~124) and shitosan (CS) blend, and 1% citric acid crosslinking agent modification, and the preparation liquid blending ratio is a PVA/CS=4/1(weight).
Owing to membrane material polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has good water-solubility, dehydration is had separating property preferably, but water content is higher in the feed liquid of handling, when operating temperature was too high, the PVA film can be by water swelling, dissolving so that breakage gradually.The intermolecular strong hydrogen bond action of membrane material shitosan (CS) makes it not dissolve in water, and special alkali resistance and organic solvent resistance are arranged, but the CS film is lower to the separation factor of ethanol-water system, therefore consider the performance of comprehensive PVS and two kinds of materials of CS, learn from other's strong points to offset one's weaknesses, blend is a kind of to the improved method of polymeric membrane.
In the development process of infiltrating and vaporizing membrane, film crosslinked extremely important carries out crosslinking Treatment to water permeable membrane, and two purposes are generally arranged: the one, wish to improve the separating property of film; The 2nd, hope improves the resistance to water and the mechanical performance of film.At PVA/CS(=4/1) under the blending ratio, make the PVA=CS blend composite film that crosslinking agent adopts solution crosslinking (promptly preparation liquid being carried out modification handles) with polyacid.After crosslinked, PVA is intermolecular, and the intermolecular cross-linking reaction by crosslinking agent of CS has obtained bridging action, has formed the three-dimensional space network structure.PVA and CS are intermolecular also can to form the three-dimensional space network structure by the bridge formation of polyacid, i.e. a part of carboxyl of polyacid and the effect of PVA molecule hydroxyl, and the amido effect in another part carboxyl and the CS molecule has reduced the number of hydrophilic radical in the film.Generally speaking, crosslinked permeance property to the PVA-CS blend film has the influence of four aspects: (1) reduction film surface is the hydrophily of face to the adsorption capacity of water, thereby makes the separation factor of cross linking membrane lower than uncrosslinked film; (2) swellbility of reduction film has weakened the diffusivity of component molecule in film, makes the infiltration flow rate of film be lower than uncrosslinked film; (3) if crosslinking points is evenly distributed, the molecule gap of film evenly reduces, the sterically hindered increase of film, high polymer segment warm-up movement resistance increases, the resistance that component sees through film increases, because of the diameter of ethanol molecule is bigger than the diameter of hydrone, ethanol molecule infiltration flow rate decline scope is bigger than water, thereby makes the separation factor of cross linking membrane than uncrosslinked film height; (4) because the existence of cross-bond bridge also may make PVA intermolecular, and CS is intermolecular, PVA and CS be intermolecular to be difficult to realize tight arrangement, and intermolecular " hole " increases, and causes the component diffusivity to increase, and the infiltration flow rate of film increases, separation factor decline.Along with the difference of crosslinking degree, the number that hydrophilic radical reduces in the film, component increases degree by the resistance of film, and factors such as intermolecular " hole " increase degree are also with difference.
