[0036] 1. The present invention forms a polymer additive containing phosphorylcholine and hydrophilic carbon dots through a copolymerization reaction between 2-methacryloyloxyethyl phosphorylcholine, N-(3-aminopropyl)methacrylamide hydrochloride and modified carbon dots. The polymer additive is added to the membrane material. On the one hand, hydrophilic functional groups such as hydroxyl, carboxyl and phosphorylcholine can be introduced to improve the hydrophilicity of the polysulfone membrane, thereby improving the dialysis effect of the polysulfone membrane, effectively removing toxins, reducing membrane pollution caused by protein adhesion on the membrane surface, and inhibiting the adhesion and activation of platelets, preventing the aggregation and release of coagulation factors, thereby hindering the formation of coagulation and thrombus; on the other hand, the addition of the polymer additive accelerates the phase separation rate of the membrane, increases the porosity of the membrane, and thus improves the dialysis effect; and the polysulfone membrane containing the polymer additive can effectively inhibit complement activation and has good blood compatibility; further, the polymer additive of the present invention introduces carbon dots rich in hydroxyl and carboxyl groups, which improves the hydrophilicity of the polysulfone membrane while improving the antioxidant properties of the membrane, thereby avoiding oxidative stress caused by contact between the polysulfone membrane material and blood.

[0037] 2. The present invention functionalizes polysulfone to introduce carboxyl groups into the polysulfone. The carboxyl groups react with the amino groups of the MOF material UIO-66-NH2, and the UIO-66-NH2 is introduced into the polysulfone side chain in the form of a chemical bond to obtain a hybrid modified polysulfone. The hydrophilic porous MOF material increases the hydrophilicity, porosity and pore size of the polysulfone membrane, improves the dialysis effect of the polysulfone membrane, and enhances the anti-pollution and anti-coagulation properties of the polysulfone membrane. In addition, the MOF material is introduced into the polysulfone structure in the form of chemical grafting, which improves the dispersibility and stability of the MOF material and makes the pores more uniform. Furthermore, through the esterification reaction between the hybrid modified polysulfone and tannic acid, a catechol-rich monomer is introduced on the surface of the polysulfone. Tannic acid can better improve the hydrophilicity and antioxidant properties of the polysulfone membrane; the catechol group of tannic acid can complex with divalent copper ions to form a divalent copper ion-phenol complex, which has an enhanced adsorption effect on urea, and can efficiently remove urea in hemodialysis through the synergistic effect of diffusion and enhanced adsorption; and divalent copper ions can catalyze the release of NO, so that the polysulfone membrane can better inhibit platelet activation, prolong coagulation time, and inhibit oxidative immune response; in addition, by performing the above modification treatment on polysulfone, hydrogen bonds and charge interactions (phosphate groups and copper ions) can be formed between the composite modified polysulfone and the polymer additive, thereby reducing the risk of elution and leaching of the polymer additive.

[0038] In summary, the present invention combines the modification of the polysulfone structure with the addition of polymer additives to prepare a polysulfone fiber membrane having excellent dialysis performance, antifouling performance, anticoagulation performance and antioxidant performance, and has an enhanced removal effect on urea, and is applied to hemodialysis materials.

[0099] Experimental example

[0100] The performance of the polysulfone fiber membranes prepared in Examples 2-3 and Comparative Examples 2-6 was tested.

[0101] 1. Pure water flux test: In each experiment, the membrane pool was thoroughly cleaned before and after use. After ensuring that the device had no leaks, it was pressurized with pure water (considered to be feed) at 0.5 bar for 30 minutes. When the water flux stabilized, the pure water flux was calculated by the following formula:

[0102]

[0103] Among them, Jw(L / m 2 h) is the pure water flux, V(L) is the permeation volume, Δt(h) is the test duration, A(m 2 ) is the area of ​​the membrane; the higher the pure water flux, the better the dialysis performance of the membrane.

[0104] 2. Antifouling performance test: Using a BSA solution with a concentration of 1 g / L as a model pollutant, ultrafiltration was performed at a pressure of 0.5 bar to study the antifouling performance of the membrane. The feed was replaced with BSA solution and the permeation flux of BSA was measured (J B ). The membrane was then cleaned with pure water and immersed in water for further cleaning for 1 h, and the pure water flux (Jr) of the cleaned membrane was estimated. All tests were repeated five times. Finally, in order to evaluate the antifouling performance of the sample, the flux recovery rate (FRR) was calculated by the following formula:

[0105]

[0106] The higher the FRR, the better the membrane's anti-fouling performance.

[0107] 3. Urea clearance test: Deionized water was used as the dialysate, with urea (1.5 g / L), creatinine (0.1 g / L), and bovine serum albumin (1 g / L) as simulated solutions, and the experimental temperature was 37°C. The simulated solution flow rate was 100 mL / min, and the dialysate flow rate was 50 mL / min. The test was run for 4 hours, and 10 ml of the solution was collected every hour. The urea clearance after 4 hours was calculated using the following formula:

[0108]

[0109] Among them C 0D and C tD are the urea concentrations in the simulated solution at t=0 and t=4h respectively.

[0110] 4. Anticoagulation test: The activated partial thromboplastin time (APTT) was measured using a coagulation analyzer (Pun2048B) to characterize the anticoagulation performance of the membrane.

[0111] 5. Lipid peroxidation inhibition test: Clean the blood on the surface of the pig liver with ice saline, chop the pig liver in an ice water bath, stir for 30 minutes to break the pig liver, and dilute the pig liver homogenate to a volume fraction of 10% with saline. Centrifuge at 3000rpm to obtain the supernatant, and obtain the pig liver tissue homogenate as the lipid source. Dilute the pig liver tissue homogenate supernatant to 0.65±0.05 at 532nm with PBS solution. Then, 1cm 2Membrane sample, H2O2 (0.3mL, 100mM) and pig liver tissue homogenate (3mL, 10% (v / v)) were reacted at 37℃ for 1h, trichloroacetic acid (3mL, 15%) was added to terminate the reaction, the mixture was centrifuged at 3000rpm for 10min, barbituric acid (3mL, 0.67%) was added to the supernatant, heated in a 100℃ oil bath for 20min, cooled in running water for 15min, and the absorbance was measured at 532nm with a UV-visible spectrophotometer. The lipid peroxidation inhibition rate (IR) was calculated by the following formula:

[0112]

[0113] Among them, A m is the absorbance of the H2O2 solution containing the membrane, A s is the absorbance of the control solution without membrane H2O2, A n is the absorbance of the control solution without membrane H2O2.

[0114] The test results are shown in Table 1:

[0115] Table 1

[0116]

[0117]

[0118] From the test results in Table 1, it can be seen that the polysulfone fiber membranes prepared in Examples 2-4 of the present invention have excellent dialysis performance, anti-fouling performance, anti-coagulation performance and antioxidant performance, and have a high removal efficiency for urea. From the comparison of Comparative Examples 2 and 4 with Example 4, it can be seen that the modified carbon dots and tannic acid modification mainly improve the hydrophilicity of the polysulfone membrane by introducing hydrophilic functional groups and their own antioxidant effects, thereby improving the dialysis performance, urea clearance rate, anti-fouling performance, anti-coagulation performance and antioxidant performance of the polysulfone membrane; from the comparison of Comparative Examples 3 and Comparative Example 6 with Example 4, it can be seen that the addition of polymer additives and MOF material UIO-66-NH2 mainly improves the hydrophilicity and porosity of the membrane material, thereby improving the dialysis performance, urea clearance rate, anti-fouling performance, anti-coagulation performance and antioxidant performance of the polysulfone membrane. The polysulfone membrane containing the polymer additive has good antioxidant properties. Since the polymer additive contains carbon dots, the polysulfone membrane containing the polymer additive also has good antioxidant properties. From the comparison between Comparative Example 5 and Example 4, it can be seen that the divalent copper ions are complexed with tannic acid to form a divalent copper ion-phenol complex, which has an enhanced adsorption effect on urea, and can efficiently remove urea in hemodialysis through the synergistic effect of diffusion and enhanced adsorption. In addition, the divalent copper ions can catalyze the release of NO, so that the polysulfone membrane exhibits better inhibition of platelet activation, prolongation of coagulation time, and inhibition of oxidative immune response.
