Problems solved by technology

In this case, however, the porosity is inevitably reduced due to the reduced expansion ratio
Therefore, the disadvantage is that the permeability of the fluid is reduced
[0016] The disadvantage of porous Teflon tubes of the kind described above is that they are not very durable against internal or external pressure, bending, etc. due to their formation simply by winding Teflon sheets on flat Teflon tubes. enough
Braiding and threading are used for reinforcement to improve durability, but such reinforcement is disadvantageous due to the accumulation of particles (suspended solids) which reduce the flow rate

Abstract

A porous multilayered hollow fiber for outer side pressed filtration is made of a multilayer comprising a supporting layer constituted of the thickness of an expanded porous polytetrafluoroethylene tube, and a filtration layer provided on the outer surface of the supporting layer, wherein pores surrounded by fibrous frameworks in the filtration layer are smaller than those of the supporting layer, and the mean of the maximum fibril length (L) of the fibrous frameworks surrounding each pore in the outer surface of the filtration layer is designed to be small such that (X) and (Y) fall within the range on the XY plane, where (X) is a particle diameter of particles captured when the particle trapping ratio is equal to or more than 90% in the case where the filtration is done under an elevated pressure of 0.1 MPa, and (Y) is a value designated as RFL obtained by dividing (L) by (X). Thus, the degradation of flow rate due to the elapse of time can be prevented, since solid particles to be separated do not enter into pores, and dogging and blockade of the pores do not occur even in the case of filtering a solution of high turbidity. As a result, it is possible to recover filtration property easily by performing back-wash reverse filtration and to maintain excellent filtration property for a long time.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to porous multilayered hollow fibers and filtration modules containing porous multilayered hollow fibers, and methods of manufacturing porous multilayered hollow fibers. In particular, the present invention relates to the improvement of the filtration performance of porous multilayer hollow fibers composed of porous tubes such as polytetrafluoroethylene, which are used in filtration equipment for solid-liquid separation treatment in the fields of environmental protection, pharmacy and food. Background technique [0002] A porous material made of polytetrafluoroethylene has properties such as non-stickiness and a low coefficient of friction, in addition to excellent chemical resistance, heat resistance, weather resistance, flame retardancy, and the like. Also, due to their porous structure, they not only have excellent permeability and flexibility, but also show excellent performance in trapping and filtering of fine partic...
