Abstract:
Described herein is a crosslinked graphene and biopolymer (e.g. lignin) based composite membrane that provides selective resistance for solutes while providing water permeability. The membrane may include optional additional functional additives in a crosslinked material matrix that provides enhanced salt separation from water. Methods for making such membranes, and methods of using the membranes for dehydrating or removing solutes from water are also described.
Abstract:
The method for producing a porous film of the present invention includes producing a stretched film by stretching a resin sheet containing at least polyolefin, and then irradiating the stretched film with a vacuum ultraviolet ray.

Abstract:
Provided is a method for producing a separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices that includes a porous epoxy resin membrane, the method including: a step (i) of preparing an epoxy resin composition containing an epoxy resin, a curing agent, and a porogen; a step (ii) of cutting a cured product of the epoxy resin composition into a sheet shape or curing a sheet-shaped formed body of the epoxy resin composition so as to obtain an epoxy resin sheet; a step (iii) of removing the porogen from the epoxy resin sheet using a halogen-free solvent so as to form a porous epoxy resin membrane; a step (iv) of irradiating the porous epoxy resin membrane with infrared ray so as to measure infrared absorption characteristics of the porous epoxy resin membrane; and a step (v) of calculating a membrane thickness and/or an average pore diameter of the porous epoxy resin membrane based on the infrared absorption characteristics. This production method can avoid the use of a solvent that places a large load on the environment, and is adapted for control of parameters such as the average pore diameter and the membrane thickness.
