Effect of Composition and Viscosity of Spinning Solution on Ultrafiltration Properties of Polyphenylene Sulfone Hollow-Fiber Membranes

In this work, PPSUs with different molecular weights were synthesized for the development of highly permeable ultrafiltration hollow fiber membranes for the first time. The M of the synthesized polymers was controlled by varying the monomers molar ratio within 1:1-1.15 under the same synthesis condi...

Description
Summary:In this work, PPSUs with different molecular weights were synthesized for the development of highly permeable ultrafiltration hollow fiber membranes for the first time. The M of the synthesized polymers was controlled by varying the monomers molar ratio within 1:1-1.15 under the same synthesis conditions. Based on the study of the rheological properties of polymer solutions, a high molecular weight PPSU (M 102,000 g/mol) was chosen for the formation of hollow fiber membranes. The addition of PEG400 to the spinning solution led to an increase in viscosity, which makes it possible to work in the region of lower PPSU concentrations (18-20 wt. %) and to form membranes with a less dense porous structure. With the addition of PEG400 to the spinning solution, the membrane permeance increased sharply by more than two orders of magnitude (from 0.2 to 96 L/m h bar). At the same time, the membranes had high rejection coefficients (99.9%) of Blue Dextran model filtered substance (M = 69,000 g/mol).
