Problems solved by technology

However, UHMWPE resin itself is extremely hydrophobic, and none of the existing technologies mentioned the problem of hydrophilic modification of membrane filaments.
This type of membrane filament may have a relatively high initial flux, but in actual use, due to its lack of hydrophilicity and resistance to pollution, the flux drops rapidly and has no practical value.
Secondly, if the stretched membrane yarn does not adopt a shaping process, the performance of the membrane yarn will not be stable. During the use process, there will be different degrees of shrinkage, which will lead to the gradual attenuation of the membrane yarn performance and make it unusable.
Finally, the internal cavity of the UHMWPE hollow fiber membrane is formed by organic solution, which brings great difficulties to the subsequent solvent recovery and recycling. This kind of technology is not suitable for large-scale promotion in industrial production.

Abstract

The invention relates to a preparation method of a UHMWPE (Ultrahigh Molecular Weight Polyethylene) hollow fiber membrane. The method comprises the following steps of: based on a developed thermally induced phase method film forming mechanism, mixing and fusing raw materials by adopting a double-screw-rod extruder; metering by a gear pump; extruding by a spinneret plate; and carrying out procedures of cooling, winding, extracting, stretching, sizing and the like to finally prepare the UHMWPE hollow fiber membrane. According to the preparation method disclosed by the invention, high-temperature-resisting amphiphilic copolymers, such as an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer (EVOH), a PE-PEO (Polyethylene-Polyoxyethylene) copolymer, an ethylene-acrylic copolymer (EAA) and an PE-PEG (Polyethylene-Poly Ethylene Glycol) copolymer, are added into the raw materials, so as to realize the permanent hydrophily of a membrane wire; the pollution resistance of the membrane wire is lasting and the service life of the membrane wire is greatly prolonged; and an oil-free and anhydrous air flow is adopted to form an inner cavity of the membrane wire, so that the problems that the recycling load of a solvent is great and the consumed amount of the solvent is great in a production process of the UHMWPE hollow fiber membrane by a thermally induced phase method are solved.

Description

【Technical field】 [0001] The invention relates to a method for preparing a filter membrane for water treatment, in particular to a method for preparing an ultrahigh molecular weight polyethylene hollow fiber membrane. 【Background technique】 [0002] Ultra-high molecular weight polyethylene: the English name is Ultra-high Molecular Weight Polyethylene (UHMWPE for short), which is polyethylene with a molecular weight of more than 1 million. The heat distortion temperature is 85°C, and the melting point is 130-136°C. It is a thermoplastic engineering plastic with a linear structure and excellent comprehensive properties. Although UHMWPE belongs to the polyethylene family, its linear molecular chain is ten times longer than conventional high-density polyethylene. This unique structure makes it have ideal material comprehensive properties, in addition to heat resistance, wear resistance, low temperature resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, self-lubrication, stress crack r...
