摘要:
A hydrophilic, semipermeable hollow-fiber membrane for blood treatment, with an integrally asymmetric structure based on a synthetic polymer. The hollow-fiber membrane possesses on its inner surface a porous separating layer and an open-pored supporting layer adjoining the separating layer, and has an ultrafiltration rate in albumin solution of 25 to 60 ml/(h·m2·mmHg). The hollow-fiber membrane is free from pore-stabilizing additives, and has a minimum sieving coefficient for cytochrome c of 0.8 and maximum sieving coefficient for albumin of 0.005. Method for the preparation of such membranes based on coagulation induced by a non-solvent, whereby a spinning solution of a synthetic first polymer and possibly a hydrophilic second polymer is extruded into a hollow fiber through the annular slit of a hollow-fiber die with simultaneous extrusion of a coagulation medium as the interior filler through the central opening of the hollow-fiber die, the interior filler initiating coagulation in the interior of the hollow fiber as a result of which a separating layer on the inner surface of the hollow-fiber membrane is formed as well as the membrane structure, the method being characterized in that the interior filler contains a polyelectrolyte with negative fixed charges.

摘要:
Membranes suitable for use in haemodialysis include a separating layer A with a cut-off between 500 and 5,000,000, a support layer B and a layer C which partly determines the hydraulic permeability. The cut-off and hydraulic permeability can be set independently of one another. The membranes are integral, multi-asymmetric, semi-permeable membranes made from .epsilon.-caprolactam-soluble polymers. The membranes may be in the form of flat, tubular or hollow fiber membranes.
摘要:
An integral polyether-sulfone membrane with a pore system open at the outer boundaries is in the form of flat films, tubular films or hollow fibers having a maximum pore diameter of 0.02 .mu.m to 2 .mu.m. The pore system is cellular throughout with cells having polyhedrally symmetrical boundaries. The cells are arranged asymmetrically from one surface of the membrane to the other, the asymmetry factor AF relative to the maximum pore diameter being 0.01 to 2.0. The ratio of the maximum mean free path length of the flow path to the diameter of the largest pore is greater than 3. The cell size changes steadily from one surface to the other surface. The membrane is produced by dissolving 12 to 35% by weight, relative to the total solution, of polyethersulfone in a mixture of 15 to 65% by weight of .epsilon.-caprolactam, 0 to 85% by weight of latent solvent, 0 to 15% by weight of thickener and 0 to 50% by weight of non-solvent, and if appropriate up to 1% by weight of auxiliaries, forming the solution into flat films, tubular films or hollow fibers (the latter preferably with the aid of an internal fluid), and transformation into the solid phase and removal of the mixture forming the solvent. The membrane may be used for ultrafiltration and microfiltration.
摘要:
A process produces microporous powders or shaped articles, in particular membranes in the form of flat films, tubular films or hollow fibers, which may be used for controlled release of an active compound, for dialysis, gas separation, ultrafiltration or microfiltration, from polyvinylidene fluoride and/or polyphenylene sulfide and/or polysulfone and/or polyacrylonitrile and/or ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer and/or ethylene/chlorotrifluoroethylene copolymer and/or polyethersulfone and/or polyether-imide and/or polymethyl methacrylate and/or polycarbonate and/or cellulose triacetate. The process utilizes phase separation by means of thermally induced triggering or triggering induced by a non-solvent of a solution of the polymer in a mixture containing .epsilon.-caprolactam as the essential dissolving constituent. The solution may be formed before the phase separation is triggered.

摘要:
Process for producing integrally asymmetrical hydrophobic polyolefinic membranes with a separation layer, in particular for gas exchange, via thermally induced liquid-liquid phase separation. A solution of at least one polyolefin in a solvent system containing a compound A and a compound B is extruded to form a shaped object. Compound A is a strong solvent and compound B a weak non-solvent for the polymer. After leaving the die, the shaped object is cooled using a solid or liquid cooling medium, which does not dissolve the polymer and does not react chemically with it, until the phase separation and solidification of the high-polymer-content phase take place. The integrally asymmetrical membrane producible in this manner has a porosity of greater than 30% to 75% by volume, a sponge-like, open-pored, microporous support layer without macrovoids and on average isotropic pores, a separation layer on at least one of its surfaces with pores
摘要:
Process for producing an integrally asymmetrical hydrophobic polyolefinic membrane with a sponge-like, open-pored, microporous support structure and a separation layer with a denser structure compared to the support structure, via a thermally induced liquid-liquid phase separation process. A solution of at least one polyolefin in a solvent system consisting of a compound A and a compound B is extruded to form a shaped object. Compound A is a weak solvent and compound B a non-solvent for the polymer. After leaving the die, the shaped object is cooled using a solid or liquid cooling medium that does not dissolve or react chemically with the polymer at temperatures up to the die temperature, until the phase separation and solidification of the high-polymer-content phase take place.
