화학적 안정성이 양호하고, 제막조건이 온화한 재료인 poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF)를 주재료로 사용하여 용매, 첨가제, 혼합고분자 및 제막조건의 변화에 따른 고강도 친수성 정밀여파(microfiltration, MF) 중공사 분리막의 실험에 의해 고찰하였다. 제조된 MF 중공사막의 막성능은 평균 공경 $0.3{\mu}m$, 인장강도 $42kg_f/cm^2$, 순수 투과유량은 600 LMH을 얻었다. 제막과정에서 다양한 첨가제의 막성능을 검토한 결과는 순수투과유량과 제거율에 상당한 영향을 미치고 있음을 알 수 있었다. MF막의 친수성을 개선하기 위해 소수성 PVDF와 상호 용해성 이 좋은 친수성 poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)를 혼합하여 투과성능과 제거율을 개선한 우수한 친수성 MF막을 제조할 수 있었다.

Polymer electrolyte membrane (PEM) fuel cells are a promising technology for short-term power generation required in residential and automobile applications. Proper management of water has been found to be essential for improving the performance and durability of PEM fuel cells. This study investigated the liquid water exhaust capabilities of various flow channels having different geometries and surface properties. Three-pass serpentine flow fields were prepared by patterning channels of 1 mm or 2 mm width onto hydrophilic Acrylic plates or hydrophobic Teflon plates, and the behaviors of liquid water in those flow channels were experimentally visualized. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations were also conducted to quantitatively assess the liquid water exhaust capabilities of flow channels for PEM fuel cells. Numerical results showed that hydrophobic flow channels have better liquid water exhaust capabilities than hydrophilic flow channels. Flow channels with curved corners showed less droplet stagnation than the channels with sharp corners. It was also found that a smaller width is desirable for hydrophobic flow channels while a larger width is desirable for hydrophilic ones. The above results were explained as being due to the different droplet morphologies in hydrophobic and hydrophilic channels.

음이온성 고분자 전해질의 하나인 알긴산을 이용 하여 알긴산막의 분리성능을 개선함과 동시에 막의 얀정성을 높이고, 막과 분리 대상물과의 화학적 친 화성을 제어하기 위하여 막의 가능기에 다양한 금속 이온으로 가교시킨 금속복합체 막을 제조하고, 그막 들이 투과증발 특성에 미치는 영향을 조사하여 다음 과 같은 결론을 얻였다. 1) 금속복합체 막들 중 IA족 금속이온으로 치환 한 경우에 저농도 에탄올 수용액에서 크게 팽윤되거 나 쉽게 부스러지는 경향이 있어 투과증발막으로 샤 용할 수 없었다. 2) 알긴산막에 비해 2가 금속으로 가교한 금속복 합체 막의 경우 막의 안정성 및 분라성능이 크게 향 상되는 것을 알 수 있었다. 3) 2가 금속 복합체 막들의 경우 분리계수는 Na a alg 막에 비해 약간 증가하는 경향을 나타낸 반면, 투과속도는 비슷한 경향을 나타내였다. 4) Ca-alg 금속복합체 막의 경우에 다른 금속복 합체 막들에 비하여 분리계수가 크게 증가하여 가장 우수한 성능을 나타내였다. 5) Ca-alg막의 경우 90wt.% 에탄올 수용액에서 분리계수는 6,420이었으며 투과속도는 $0.269kg/m^2.hr$로써 우수한 생능을 나타내었다.

Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) ultrafiltration membrane was prepared by blending 12 wt.% of PVC in N, N-dimethylacetimide (DMAc) with polyethylene glycol 400 (PEG400) as an additive. The influence of PEG400 concentration on the PVC membrane morphology, permeability, fouling and rejection were investigated. Fouling and rejection of the PVC membrane were characterized by dextran T-100 filtration. The results showed that membrane water flux was increased up to $682Lm^{-2}h^{-1}$ when 28 wt.% of PEG400 was added into the PVC membrane solution. The best membrane performance with a low fouling and a high selectivity was achieved by adding 12 wt.% concentration of PEG400, which resulted in 90% rejection of dextran and 90% of flux recovery ratio. At further addition of PEG400 concentration, irreversible fouling was starting to increase. A 90% of irreversible fouling was formed in the PVC membrane when more than 22 wt.% of PEG400 is added.

Surface modification is very efficient and scalable approach to achieve improved membrane performance. We treated Reverse Osmosis Thin Film Composite (TFC RO) membrane with various concentrations of Polyethylene Glycol (PEG), a hydrophilic polymer after activation with sodium hypochlorite. This treatment resulted in an increment of the water flux by 43% and the salt rejection by 2.36% for the 3000 mg/l PEG-treated membrane. Further, these PEG-treated membranes were exposed to a mixture of 3000 mg/l PEG and 1000 mg/l sodium hypochlorite for 1 hour. Further modification of this membrane by PEG and sodium hypochlorite mixture increased the water permeance up to 133% when compared with the virgin TFC RO membrane. We characterized the treated membranes to understand the changes in wettability by contact angle analysis, changes in surface morphology and roughness by scanning electron microscope (SEM) and atomic force microscope (AFM) analysis.

기존에 membrane의 소재로 사용되어 왔던 Polyethersulfone은 막 제조 특성이 우수하고 여러 가지 환경에 대한 저항성이 뛰어나서 많이 이용되어 왔지만 소수성을 띠므로 농도분극과 fouling등 많은 문제점을 안고 있다. 이런 문제점을 극복하기 위하여 친수성의 도입, 물리적, 화학적 세척등 여러 가지 방법을 사용하고 있고 본 연구에서는 hydrophobic Polyethersulfone에 hydrophilic Sulfonate group(-SO$_3$H)을 도입하여 이와같은 문제를 극복하고자 했다. 본 연구에서 사용한 sulfonating agent로는 Chlorosulfonic acid (in CCl$_4$)를 사용하였다.

The Ozone oxidation process was applied to increase the efficiency of reuse process when treating the secondary effluent by the membrane system. This paper focus on decreasing efficiency of membrane fouling, because of membrane fouling reduction by ozone and evaluation of application of the ozone oxidation. The feed water was secondary effluent from BNR process. The result shows that the ozone pretreatment can reduce membrane fouling effectively. Also, the improvement of treated water quality was obvious. The reduction of the membrane fouling led decrease of following pollutant and increase of lnner adsorptive ability of hydrophilic organic matter and decrease of molecular weight. MF membrane process alone can meet the domestic reuse water standards. And ozone pretreatment process also can increase the removal rates of turbidity, COD, nitrogen, and color.

Swelling and subsequent deformation of membranes by water wetting are regarded as a prime drawback of hydrophilic polyurethane breathable film. Fluoroalkylated surface was prepared by reacting the film with hexamethylene diisocyanate(HDI) and 2-perfluorohexyl ethanol. IR spectra and XPS results showed that the fluoroalkyl group was successfully introduced to the film surface with hexamethylene linkage. Water contact angle was increased from $68.7^{\circ}$ up to $144.2^{\circ}$ with the degree of fluoroalkylation. Decrease in water-vapor permeability was minimized even for the film of highest fluoroalkylation.

In recent years, the study of self-assembly peptide used in drug delivery system has been attracted great interest from scientists. In the category are self-assembly peptides in the structure either with one hydrophobic surface and another hydrophilic or a hydrophobic head and a hydrophilic tail. Here, we focus on a novel designed peptide EYK with double amphiphilic surfaces, investigating on the capability of peptide as a carrier for hydrophobic compound model pyrene. The fluorescence data presented the dynamic process of the transfer, showing that the pyrene was in the crystalline form in peptide solution, and molecularly migrated from its peptide encapsulations into the membrane bilayers when the peptide-pyrene suspension was mixed with liposome vesicles. The results indicated that the peptide EYK could stabilize hydrophobic pyrene in aqueous solution and delivered it into EPC liposome as a potential carrier.
