Preparation of Polyvinylidene Fluoride (PVDF) Hollow Fiber Hemodialysis Membranes
In this study, the polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) hollow fiber hemodialysis membranes were prepared by non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS). The influences of PVDF membrane thickness and polyethylene glycol (PEG) content on membrane morphologies, pore size, mechanical and permeable performance were investigated. It was found that membrane thickness and PEG content affected both the struc...
متن کاملNanopores with controlled profiles in track-etched membranes
The production of the track-etched membranes is well known in membrane science. Latent ion tracks are the result of the passage of swift ions through solid matter, they can be etched selectively in many materials. As a result, conical, cylindrical or other shape channels can be obtained. The increasing interest in polymer track-etched membranes with nano-channels is connected with the developme...
متن کاملLow-voltage electroosmotic pumps fabricated from track-etched polymer membranes.
Track-etched polymer membranes are used to realize low-voltage electroosmotic (EO) pumps. The nanopores in polycarbonate (PC) and polyethylene terephthalate (PET) membranes were fabricated by the track-etching technique, the pore diameter was controlled in the range of 100 to 250 nm by adjusting the etching time. The results show that these EO pumps can provide high flow rates at low applied vo...
متن کاملHigh-sensitivity ion track-etching of poly(vinylidene fluoride) membranes
Quite recently, ion-track membranes of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) have attracted a renewed interest for their applications to next-generation electrochemical devices such as fuel cells [1,2]. In order to produce tracketched pores in PVDF films, several kinds of etching solutions were previously employed. In most cases [3], a highly concentrated aqueous KOH solution with a KMnO4 additive w...
متن کاملVirus disinfection in water by biogenic silver immobilized in polyvinylidene fluoride membranes.
The development of innovative water disinfection strategies is of utmost importance to prevent outbreaks of waterborne diseases related to poor treatment of (drinking) water. Recently, the association of silver nanoparticles with the bacterial cell surface of Lactobacillus fermentum (referred to as biogenic silver or bio-Ag(0)) has been reported to exhibit antiviral properties. The microscale b...
