Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a filtering membrane, in particular to a multi-layer composite filtering membrane based on polytetrafluoroethylene. Background Art
[0002] As people pay more attention to their health and safety, the quality requirements for air and water are getting higher and higher. Polluted air and water need to be filtered to remove odors, bacteria, viruses, particulate matter and other pollutants in the water and air, so as to purify the water and air and protect people's health.
[0003] Among them, membrane filtration is a more commonly used solid-liquid separation filtration method. Membrane filtration is to filter air or water through the membrane pores, intercept impurities and pollutants in the air or water, without chemical changes, and is simple and easy to handle. Polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane is a microporous membrane made of polytetrafluoroethylene as raw material through calendering, extrusion, biaxial stretching and other methods. The pore size range is between 0.02 microns and 5 microns, and the porosity is above 88%. It has the characteristics of high peel strength, large air permeability, and uniform pore size distribution. Polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane can be coated on various fabrics and substrates to become a filter material with large air permeability. While maintaining air circulation, it can filter all dust particles including bacteria to achieve the purpose of purification and ventilation. It has high filtration efficiency and can be used in pharmaceuticals, biochemistry, microelectronics, laboratory consumables and other fields.
[0004] However, the texture of the polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane is relatively soft and its load-bearing capacity is not very high. It is easy to deform under the impact of high-pressure water flow or air flow, which leads to pore expansion, change in pore size distribution, and even cracking, thereby reducing the filtration efficiency. In addition, the thermal conductivity of the polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane is low. Under high temperature conditions, heat is easy to accumulate and heat up in the polytetrafluoroethylene filter membrane, which will promote the growth of microorganisms and cause them to gather on the membrane. Certain scaling substances will also be decomposed by heat and precipitated in water, and precipitated on the membrane to scale, causing membrane pollution and membrane blockage, hindering the flow of filtered substances and reducing filtration efficiency.

[0007] In the aforementioned multi-layer composite filtration membrane based on polytetrafluoroethylene, the pore size of the first ceramic membrane is smaller than the pore size of the second ceramic membrane.
[0008] In the aforementioned multi-layer composite filtration membrane based on polytetrafluoroethylene, the polytetrafluoroethylene microporous membrane is provided with conical micropores, and the small pore diameter end of the conical micropores faces the feed end.
[0009] In the aforementioned polytetrafluoroethylene-based multilayer composite filter membrane, the edges of the polytetrafluoroethylene microporous membrane, the first ceramic membrane, the ε-polylysine-PCL fiber membrane, the graphene filter membrane and the second ceramic membrane are all coated with a U-shaped bonding coating, and the bonding coating respectively wraps the membrane edges of the polytetrafluoroethylene microporous membrane, the first ceramic membrane, the ε-polylysine-PCL fiber membrane, the graphene filter membrane and the second ceramic membrane.
[0010] The aforementioned multi-layer composite filter membrane based on polytetrafluoroethylene further comprises a positioning frame with a U-shaped cross section, wherein the positioning frame is wrapped around the outside of all the adhesive coatings, and a positioning screw is passed through the positioning frame.
[0011] In the aforementioned polytetrafluoroethylene-based multi-layer composite filter membrane, a reinforcing sheet attached to the outer side surfaces of all adhesive coatings is provided inside the positioning frame.
