Definitions
- the invention relates to the treatment of polymeric materials to enhance their chemical properties in ultrafiltration and microfiltration applications.
- the invention relates to the treatment of porous polymeric membranes to increase water permeability without loss of other desirable membrane characteristics.
- Synthetic polymeric membranes are well known in the field of ultrafiltration and microfiltration for a variety of applications including desalination, gas separation, filtration and dialysis.
- the properties of the membranes vary depending on the morphology of the membrane i.e. properties such as symmetry, pore shape, pore size and the chemical nature of the polymeric material used to form the membrane.
- Different membranes can be used for specific separation processes, including microfiltration, ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis.
- Microfiltration and ultrafiltration are pressure driven processes and are distinguished by the size of the particle or molecule that the membrane is capable of retaining or passing.
- Microfiltration can remove very fine colloidal particles in the micrometer and submicrometer range. As a general rule, microfiltration can filter particles down to 0.05 ⁇ m, whereas ultrafiltration can retain particles as small as 0.01 ⁇ m and smaller. Reverse osmosis operates on an even smaller scale.
- Microporous phase inversion membranes are particularly well suited to the application of removal of viruses and bacteria.
- a large surface area is needed when a large filtrate flow is required.
- a commonly used technique to minimize the size of the apparatus used is to form a membrane in the shape of a hollow porous fibre.
- a large number of these hollow fibres (up to several thousand) are bundled together and housed in modules.
- the fibres act in parallel to filter a solution for purification, generally water, which flows in contact with the outer surface of all the fibres in the module. By applying pressure, the water is forced into the central channel, or lumen, of each of the fibres while the microcontaminants remain trapped outside the fibres. The filtered water collects inside the fibres and is drawn off through the ends.
- the fibre module configuration is a highly desirable one as it enables the modules to achieve a very high surface area per unit volume. hi addition to the arrangement of fibres in a module, it is also necessary for the polymeric fibres themselves to possess the appropriate microstructure to allow microfiltration to occur.
- the microstructure of ultrafiltration and microfiltration membranes is asymmetric, that is, the pore size gradient across the membrane is not homogeneous, but rather varies in relation to the cross-sectional distance within the membrane.
- Hollow fibre membranes are preferably asymmetric membranes possessing tightly bunched small pores on one or both outer surfaces and larger more open pores towards the inside edge of the membrane wall.
- This microstructure has been found to be advantageous as it provides a good balance between mechanical strength and filtration efficiency.
- the chemical properties of the membrane are also important.
- the hydrophilic or hydrophobic nature of a membrane is one such important property.
- Hydrophobic surfaces are defined as “water hating” and hydrophilic surfaces as “water loving”. Many of the polymers used to cast porous membranes are hydrophobic polymers. Water can be forced through a hydrophobic membrane by use of sufficient pressure, but the pressure needed is very high (150-300 psi), and a membrane may be damaged at such pressures and generally does not become wetted evenly.
- Hydrophobic microporous membranes are typically characterised by their excellent chemical resistance, biocompatibility, low swelling and good separation performance. Thus, when used in water filtration applications, hydrophobic membranes need to be hydrophilised or "wet out” to allow water permeation. Some hydrophilic materials are not suitable for microfiltration and ultrafiltration membranes that require mechanical strength and thermal stability since water molecules can play the role of plasticizers.
- PTFE poly(tetrafluoroethylene)
- PE polyethylene
- PP polypropylene
- PVDF poly(vinylidene fluoride)
- Microporous synthetic membranes are particularly suitable for use in hollow fibres and are produced by phase inversion.
- at least one polymer is dissolved in an appropriate solvent and a suitable viscosity of the solution is achieved.
- the polymer solution can be cast as a film or hollow fibre, and then immersed in precipitation bath such as water. This causes separation of the homogeneous polymer solution into a solid polymer and liquid solvent phase.
- the precipitated polymer forms a porous structure containing a network of uniform pores. Production parameters that affect the membrane structure and properties include the polymer concentration, the precipitation media and temperature and the amount of solvent and non-solvent in the polymer solution.
- Hollow fibre ultrafiltration and microfiltration membranes are generally produced by either diffusion induced phase separation (the DIPS process) or by thermally induced phase separation (the TIPS process).
- the TIPS process is described in more detail in PCT AU94/00198 (WO 94/17204) AU 653528, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
- the quickest procedure for forming a microporous system is thermal precipitation of a two component mixture, in which the solution is formed by dissolving a thermoplastic polymer in a solvent which will dissolve the polymer at an elevated temperature but will not do so at lower temperatures.
- a solvent is often called a latent solvent for the polymer.
- the solution is cooled and, at a specific temperature which depends upon the rate of cooling, phase separation occurs and the polymer rich phase separates from the solvent.
- Microporous polymeric ultrafiltration and microfiltration membranes have been made from PVdF which incorporate a hydrophilising copolymer to render the membrane hydrophilic. While these copolymers do impart a degree of hydrophilicity to otherwise hydrophobic membranes, membranes formed from mixed polymers usually have a lower water permeability than equivalent hydrophobic PVdF membranes formed without copolymer. Further, in some cases, the hydrophilising components can be leached from the membrane over time.
- the invention provides a method of improving the permeability of porous polymeric membrane which includes a cross linkable component, said method including the step of treating said hydrophilic porous polymeric membrane with a cross linking agent.
- the porous polymeric membrane is a hydrophilic porous polymeric membrane.
- the cross linkable component is a hydrophilic cross linkable component.
- prior art examples involving crosslinking of one or more membrane components typically have permeability going down when a cross-linkable component is used.
- the methods of the prior art usually describe depositing a cross-linkable component onto the surface of the membrane and cross-linking it rather than having it incorporated into the dope mixture, where it is cast with the other membrane forming components into a membrane.

- the invention provides a method of forming a hydrophilic polymeric microfiltration or ultrafiltration membrane including: i) preparing a polymeric microfiltration or ultrafiltration membrane which contains a component which is cross-linkable; and ii) treating said polymeric microfiltration or ultrafiltration membrane with a crosslinking agent to cross-link said cross-linkable component
- the polymeric microfiltration or ultrafiltration membrane also includes a hydrophobic and/or not crosslinkable component.
- the hydrophilic cross-linkable component is any hydrophilic cross linkable component capable of free radical cross linking. More preferably, the cross linkable component is capable of cross linking under oxidative conditions.

- the cross linkable component may be added at various stages in the preparation of the polymer, but are usually incorporated by addition into the polymer dope in membranes prior to casting. Alternatively, the cross linkable component may be added as a coating/lumen or quench during membrane formation. They may be added in any amount, from an amount constituting the whole of the membrane or substantially the whole of the membrane down to an amount which produces only a minimal attenuation of the hydrophilicity/hydrophobicity balance.
- the hydrophobic and/or non-cross linkable component is any polymer or copolymer of oxidation resistant material. Any polymer resistant to base attack containing one or more of the following monomers may be used: chlorotrifluoroethylene, vinyl fluoride, vinyl chloride; vinylidene fluoride/ vinylidene chloride/; hexafluoropropylene, ethylene- chlorotrifluoroethlyene, tetrafluoroethylene.
- a non crosslinkable component is PVdF.
- Chemical crosslinking is preferred.
- Particularly preferred as a method of cross linking is treating the polymeric ultrafiltration or micro filtration membrane with a hydroxyl radical. The hydroxyl radical may be prepared by any known source.
- hydroxyl radicals may, for example, be by way of an aqueous solution of Ferric chloride/hydrogen peroxide/sodium hydrogensulfate, by aqueous acidified hydrogen peroxide, by aqueous organic peroxy acids such as peracetic acid or by aqueous hydrogen peroxide under ultraviolet radiation, or by a combination of hydrogen peroxide and ozone, with or without UV radiation at any pH in the range 2-9.

- UV light may be used if desired.
- the process also includes a step of leaching unbound excess copolymer.
- the excess unbound copolymer can be washed out with water or any other suitable solvent, for a predetermined time or to a predetermined level of leachate. It is possible that some cross linked material will be washed out, ie some oligomeric and lower polymeric material not fully embedded in the matrix of non-crosslinkable and/or hydrophobic polymer.
