Abstract
In this research, by using the fluorine gas, the poly(ether sulfone) (PES), the polysulfone (PSf), and the poly-vinylidenefluoride (PVDF) membranes were modified to improve the performance of the optional Gas-Liquid Contactor The SEM, surface contact angle, XPS, and the water transmission minimum pressure test was performed in order to examine the characteristics of which is surface modified. As a result of looking into the surface morphology of from the SEM measurement, we could know that the roughness of the membrane surface increased as the fluorine processing time increased. $-CH_2$, and the perfluoro group of $-CH_3$ were chemically combined with the surface fluorine conversion film surface and the hydrophobicity was exposed to be increased. Moreover, we could know that as the surface fluorinated processing time increased from the surface contact angle and water transmission minimum pressure test, the measured value increased and the overall characteristics were improved.
본 연구에서는 선택적 Gas-Liquid Contactor의 성능을 향상시키기 위하여 polyethersulfone(PES), polysulfone(PSf), polyvinylidenefluoride (PVDF) 등의 막에 $F_2$ gas를 이용하여 표면개질하였다. 표면개질된 막의 특성을 알아보기 위해 SEM, 표면접촉각, XPS, 물 투과 최소 압력 실험을 수행하였다. SEM 측정으로부터 막의 표면형태를 살펴본 결과 불소처리 시간이 증가함에 따라 막 표면의 roughness가 증가함을 알 수 있었다. 표면불소화한 막 표면에 $-CF_2$, $-CF_3$의 perfluoro group이 화학적으로 결합되어 막의 소수성이 증가된 것으로 나타났다. 또한 표면접촉각 및 물 투과 최소 압력 실험으로부터 표면불소화 처리시간이 증가함에 따라 측정값이 증가하여 막의 특성이 향상됨을 알 수 있었다.
