    摘要: Provided are certain polyolefinic membranes which are useful as components of filters for liquid purification. Advantageously, the filter membranes of the disclosure possess greatly reduced concentrations of certain trace metals, thus making them particularly useful in the filtration of liquids used in the fabrication of microelectronic devices. In one aspect, the disclosure provides a filter membrane comprising a polyolefin, wherein said polyolefin has less than about 4 ppm total of metals chosen from titanium, aluminum, iron, zinc, and magnesium.

    摘要: The disclosure is directed to removal of metal contaminants from fluids, as well as ligand-modified filter materials useful for carrying out such methods. The filters and methods of this disclosure are particularly effective for removal of metals from liquid compositions comprising amines. Such liquid compositions with significantly reduced amounts of metals can be used in a microelectronic manufacturing process, such as liquids for removing photoresist or liquids used in etching. The ligand-modified filters, such as ligand-modified porous membranes, can be configured for use in a microelectronic manufacturing system, which can be utilized in the system as a point of use metal-removal feature for liquids entering the system.

    摘要: A polysulfone membrane is modified so that monomers are wafted onto the surface of the membrane. The polysulfone membranes can be grafted by contacting the membrane with a grafting solution and exposing the membrane to electromagnetic radiation, typically within the ultraviolet portion of the spectrum. The monomers that are grafted are typically anionic or cationic. The grafted membranes can be used for filtering impurities, such as positively and negatively charged particles, from a liquid. Anionic membranes provide improved filtration of negatively charged impurities, while cationic membranes provide improved filtration of positively charged impurities.

    摘要: This disclosure provides certain strong cation-modified ion exchange resins and membranes useful for carrying out the removal of metal and metal ion contaminants in fluid compositions. Filtered liquid compositions with significantly reduced amounts of metals can be used in a microelectronic manufacturing process, such as liquids for removing photoresist. The cation-modified ion exchange resins and membranes of the disclosure can be configured for use in a microelectronic manufacturing system, which can be utilized in the system as a point of use metal-removal feature for liquids entering the system. Advantageously, the filter materials and methods of this disclosure showed considerable improvement in preventing degradation and the formation of color bodies and dimeric and oligomeric materials from ketones (e.g., cyclohexanone) in the liquid compositions while not compromising the filter material's ability to remove undesired metal ions.

    摘要: Grafted, asymmetric, porous, ultra high molecular weight polyethylene membranes having a bubble point between about 5.38 bar (78 psi) and 11.03 bar (160 psi) are disclosed. Monomers are grafted to the porous polymeric membrane surfaces, the monomers having one or more of neutral groups or ion exchange groups grafted to one or more surfaces of the membrane. A combination of two photoinitiators can be used to graft the monomers to the asymmetric, porous, ultra high molecular weight membrane resulting in grafted microporous membranes that have water flow rates that are at least 50% of the water flow rate of an ungrafted, asymmetric, porous ultra high molecular weight polyethylene membrane. The grafted membrane also wets in water.
