Problems solved by technology

The hollow fiber membrane prepared by the NIPS method has poor mechanical properties and is prone to broken filaments during preparation or use.
Moreover, the TIPS method and the NIPS method often use a large amount of organic reagents as diluents or solvents in the preparation process, and the organic reagents need to be recovered, separated and recycled, which can easily cause environmental pollution.
[0004] In patents CN102764600A and CN106674580A, a method for preparing a block copolymer porous membrane by selective swelling is provided. Although this method can prepare a block copolymer membrane with excellent performance, it is difficult to scale up production, and the prepared membrane is Block Copolymer Flat Sheet Membranes, Limitations in Practical Applications

Abstract

The invention provides a method for preparing a block copolymer hollow fiber membrane based on selective swelling, which comprises the following steps: by using an amphiphilic block copolymer as a membrane forming material, carrying out melt spinning to prepare compact hollow fibers; immersing the obtained hollow fiber in a swelling agent, and treating for 0-5h under 55-70 DEG C water bath heating; and immediately taking out and drying after the treatment is finished to obtain the hollow fiber membrane with a bicontinuous open pore structure. According to the method, melt spinning and selective swelling are combined, the hollow fiber membrane can be prepared only by using a small amount of the solvent, and the solvent can be repeatedly used, so that the influence on the environment is reduced; the method has universality and can be widely applied to the process of preparing the hollow fiber membrane from various segmented copolymers; and the prepared hollow fiber membrane can be storedin a dry state, so that the storage and transportation cost is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of porous material separation membranes, and in particular relates to a method for preparing block copolymer hollow fiber membranes based on a selective swelling method. Background technique [0002] Hollow fiber membrane is a kind of membrane material with fiber shape and self-supporting function. Because the hollow fiber membrane itself has the advantages of high packing density per unit volume, simple operation, and stable structure, it is widely used in water treatment, catalytic reaction, food processing, biotechnology, and medical technology. [0003] At this stage, there are mainly three methods for preparing hollow fiber membranes using polymer materials, namely: melt spinning-drawing method (MSCS), thermally induced phase separation method (TIPS) and non-solvent induced phase separation method (NIPS). The MSCS method is to melt the polymer material at high temperature and then extrude it under high...
