172 results about "Silicon membrane" patented technology

PermSelect® silicone membrane modules use silicone hollow fibers with exceptional gas transfer properties. Because silicone is dense (non-porous), liquids cannot transfer through the membrane. This enables silicone's use in liquid contacting applications with all compatible liquids regardless of surface tension.

Device and method for preparing high-purity silicon film based on vacuum degree control electrolytic silicon purification

The application belongs to the technical field of metallurgy, and particularly relates to a device and method for preparing high-purity silicon film based on vacuum degree control electrolytic silicon purification. The device creates a closed environment through a vacuum cabin, and utilizes a connected vacuumizing mechanism and a vacuum degree adjusting device to accurately control the vacuum degree in the cabin. A material storage mechanism is used for storing silicon materials, and is composed of a corundum crucible and a graphite crucible sleeved outside the corundum crucible. A heating mechanism heats the materials through electromagnetic induction. The method first heats impurity-containing electrolytic silicon in a vacuum environment in a deimpurification mode, so that impurities with higher saturated vapor pressure are preferentially volatilized and deposited on the inner wall of the cabin, thereby realizing preliminary purification. Then, in an evaporation mode, the purified silicon material is heated to a volatilization temperature again, so that it is vapor-deposited on the upper base material to directly form a high-purity silicon film. The scheme integrates the purification and film forming processes, and simplifies the process.
