The invention relates to a method for forming a porous
polyurethane membrane, belonging to the technical field of membrane
science and engineering. The method for forming the porous
polyurethane membrane, provided by the invention, comprises the steps of: dissolving
thermoplastic polyurethane in an
organic solvent to prepare a membrane
casting solution, immersing the membrane
casting solution in an environment constituted by atomized microspheres which is prepared by an atomization device and used for solidification, and slowly performing a solidification forming process of the membrane
casting liquor from outside to inside. According to the method, the forms of the microspheres on the surface and in the inner part can be effectively controlled in a forming process of the porous
polyurethane membrane, and compact structures on the
surface layer of the porous
polyurethane membrane can be effectively reduced. The formed porous
polyurethane membrane has the characteristics of uniformly distributed microspheres on the
surface layer, no compact layer structure, uniform inner pore size, and large
porosity. The method is simple to operate and has not
pollution to the environment, and thedosage of an atomizing solution for solidification is lower. The prepared porous polyurethane membrane has a favorable waterproof breathability, and can be widely applied to the fields of clothes fabrics, leather,
medical treatment and
public health, and the like.
