Problems solved by technology

Due to the high crystallinity of polyethylene film, compact structure, and less amorphous area, styrene and divinylbenzene are not easy to immerse into the film, and it is necessary to partially destroy the crystalline area of ​​the film at high temperature (70-90°C) to make it Styrene and divinylbenzene enter, but the amount of entry is not much, so the amount of styrene and divinylbenzene in the prepared base film (called impregnation rate) is not high, at most 45%, and the bipolar membrane prepared in this way , its anion and cation exchange capacity is not high, and its resistance is large
(2) In this method, the membrane is immersed at 70-90°C, and the initiator benzoyl peroxide will decompose at 80°C, triggering the copolymerization reaction of styrene and divinylbenzene, so the polymerization reaction is easily caused during the membrane immersion process , or make the solution viscous, the solution can only be used once and then discarded
Dichloroethane is toxic and not good for mass production
(4) Due to the use of trimethylamine acetone solution for quaternization, there is no tertiary amine catalytic layer that accelerates the decomposition of water
(5) This method uses 25% trimethylamine acetone solution to carry out quaternization reaction, the price of amination agent is high, acetone is flammable, hidden danger
Due to the above disadvantages, this invention has not been seen to be implemented in industry so far

Abstract

The invention relates to a method for manufacturing a monolithic bipolar membrane, which comprises the following steps of: immersing a substrate membrane in a solution containing styrene, divinybenzene and benzoyl peroxide, pressurizing the immersed membrane, wherein the substrate membrane is a thin alloy membrane formed by two-element blending of polyethylene and ethylene-octylene copolymer elastomer or by three-element blending of polyethylene, ethylene-octylene copolymer elastomer and polyisobutylene rubber; and pressurizing the membrane immersed in the solution and polymerizing under the condition of heating to obtain a base membrane; sulfonating one side face of the base membrane by heating in concentrated sulfuric acid; performing chloromethylation reaction of the membrane with one sulfonated side face in chloromethyl ether containing anhydrous stannic chloride so that the other side face of the membrane is chloromethyl; and immersing the membrane in a trimethylamine aqueous solution or a trimethylamine aqueous solution containing dimethylamine to carry out an aimination or quaterisation reaction to obtain the monolithic bipolar membrane. The method has the advantages that the immersing temperature is greatly reduced, the styrene and divinybenzene solution can be repeatedly used, and the electric resistance of the bipolar membrane is low. The bipolar membrane has a catalytic layer for accelerating water decomposition, the method is simple and convenient and is easy for large-scale industrialized production.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a method for manufacturing bipolar membranes in membrane separation materials in the field of chemical engineering. Background technique [0002] Under the action of a direct current electric field in the bipolar membrane, the water splitting in the middle water layer between the cathode and anode layers produces hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions, which pass through the anode layer and the cathode layer respectively to provide hydrogen ions and hydroxide ions . Therefore, an electrodialysis device assembled with a bipolar membrane can be used to produce acids and bases from salts. [0003] A method for manufacturing a monolithic bipolar membrane is known, and US Pat. No. 4,024,043 discloses a method for manufacturing a bipolar membrane using a polyethylene film as a substrate.
