Nanofiltration (NF) is a recently introduced term in membrane separation. In 1988, Eriksson was one of the first authors using the word 'nanofiltration' explicitly. Some years before, FilmTech started to use this term for their NF50 membrane which was supposed to be a very loose reverse osmosis membrane or a very tight ultrafiltration membrane. Since then, this term has been introduced to indicate a specific boundary of membrane technology in between ultrafiltration and reverse osmosis. The application fields of the NF membranes are very broad as follows: Demeneralizing water, Cleaning up contaminated groundwater, Ultrapure water production, Treatment of effleunts containing heavy metals, Offshore oil platforms, Yeast production, Pulp and paper mills, Textile production, Electroless copper plating, Cheese whey production, Cyclodextrin production, Lactose production. The earliest NF membrane was made by Cadotte et al, using piperazine and trimesoyl chloride as monomers for the formation of polyamide active layer of the composite type membrane. They coated very thin interfacially potymerized polyamide on the surface of the microporous polysulfone supports. The NF membrane exhibited low rejections for monovalent anions (chloride) and high rejections for bivalent anions (sulphate). This membrane was called NS300. Some of the earliest NF membranes, like the NF40 membrane of FilmTech, the NTR7250 of Nitto-Denko and the UTC20 and UTC60 of Toray, are formed by a comparable synthesis route as the NS300 membrane. Commercially available NF membranes nowadays are as follows: ASP35 (Advanced Membrane Technology), MPF21; MPF32 (Kiryat Weizmann), UTC20; UTC60; UTC70; UTC90 (Toray), CTA-LP; TFCS (Fluid Systems), NF45; NF70 (FilmTec), BQ01; MX07; HG01; HG19; SX01; SX10 (Osmonics), 8040-LSY-PVDI (Hydranautics), NF CA30; NF PES 10 (Hoechst), WFN0505 (Stork Friesland). The typical ones among the commercially available NF membranes are polyamide composite membrane consisting of interfacially polymerized polyamide active layer and microporous support. While showing high water fluxes and high rejections of multivalent ions and small organic molecules, these membranes have relatively low chemical stability. These membranes have low chlorine tolerance and are unstable in acid or base solution. This chemical instability is appearing to be a big obstacle for their applications. To improve the chemical stability, we have tried, in this study, to prepare chemically stable NF membranes from PVA. The ionomers and interfacially polymerized polyamide were used for the modification of'the PVA membranes. For the detail study of the active layer, homogeneous NF membranes made only from active layer materials were prepared and for the high performance, composite type NF membranes were prepared by coating the active layer materials on microporous polysulfone supports.

본 연구에서는 고분자 주사술에 카르복실기를 도입하는 방법으로서 직접 리튬화 반응을 이용하여 polysulfone을 카르복실화(CPSf)한 후, 음이온에 대해 선택성이 있는 것으로 알려진 pyridinium 양이온을 고정전달자로 한 poly(1-alkyl-4-vinylpyridinium iodide-codivinylbenzene) (MeVpI-DVB)을 합성하고, 이들을 혼합한 고분자 분리막을 제조하여 특성화 한 후, 막의 열적특성 및 투과특성을 고찰하였다. CPSf와 MeVpI-DVB의 합성으로 혼성 반응 생성물이 아닌 blend가 형성되었으며, MeVpI-DVB에 대해 CPSf의 함량이 많을수록 열적안정도가 우수함을 알 수 있었고, 합성막은 종류에 따라 이온교환용량은 1.0~1.8(meq/g dry mem.), 함수율은 0.16~0.26(g $H_{2}O$/g dry mem.), 고정이온농도는 6.4~7.3(meq/g $H_2{O}$)의 범위를 보였다. $Cl^-$의 플럭스 변화는 CPSf 함량이 많을수록 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다.

The objective of this research is to evaluate optimal conditions of permeability and selectivity on the polysulfone membrane for efficiency of separation of $CH_4$ by checking four factors which are temperature, pressure, gas compositions and gas flow rates. When higher pressure was applied at the input, lower efficiency of recovery of $CH_4$ and higher efficiency of separation of $CH_4$ were shown. It has the tendency to show lower efficiency of recovery of $CH_4$ and higher efficiency of separation of $CH_4$ at the output as higher temperature at input. The lower flow rates make higher efficiency of recovery of $CH_4$ and lower efficiency of separation of $CH_4$. Finally, over 90% efficiency for $CH_4$ separation and recovery conditions are temperature ($-5^{\circ}C$), pressure (8 bar), gas composition rate (6:4) ($CH_4:CO_2$) and gas flow rate ($5\ell$/min). These conditions make higher separation and recovery efficiency such as 90.1% and 92.1%, respectively.

In this study, poly (phenylene oxide) (PPO) and poysulfone (PSf) were sulfonated and aminated respectively. Both sulfonated poly (phenylene oxide) (SPPO) and aminated polysulfone (APSf) were characterized via the measurement of FT-IR, swelling degree, ion exchange capacity (IEC), and ion conductivity. Then the surfaces of these membranes were modified by surface fluorination using 2000 ppm $F_2$ gas against $N_2$ gas for 1 h at room temperature. The surface fluorinated SPPO and APSf membranes were characterized again to determine any differences between the pristine and fluorinated membranes. In total, 3 types of bi-polar membranes were prepared by varying the IEC of the APSf and having a fixed value for the IEC of the SPPO. The hypochlorite concentration generated by using the surface fluorinated membranes was dependent on the IEC of the APSf and ranged from 683 to 826 ppm, while there was a considerable improvement in the durability of the surface fluorinated membranes as they remained intact even after operating for 4 h.

반도체 및 디스플레이 공정에서 배출되는 $N_2/NF_3$ 혼합 가스 분리를 위한 폴리썰폰 중공사막 제조 연구를 수행하였다. 먼저 non-solvent induced phase separation (NIPS)와 vapor induced phase separation (VIPS) 혼합 공정을 이용하여 기체투과성이 높은 고분자 중공사막을 제조하였다. 제조된 중공사막 표면에 PDMS(polydimethylsiloxiane)와 Teflon AF1600(R) 고분자 소재를 이용하여 얇은 박막을 추가적으로 코팅하는 방법으로 기체 분리막을 완성하였다. 제조된 분리막은 코팅된 고분자 소재의 기체 분리 특성에 따라 상이한 $N_2/NF_3$ 분리 성능을 보여주었다. 특히 Teflon AF1600(R) 이 코팅된 중공사막의 경우 $N_2/NF_3$ 분리 성능(> 14)을 보여주었고, $N_2$ 투과도는 4.5 GPU를 나타내었다. 상용 폴리썰폰 막과 비교해 볼 때, 투과도는 약간 감소하였지만 기체 선택도는 크게 증가하였다. 이런 특징은 $N_2/NF_3$를 분리하는 분리막 구조로써 큰 가능성을 지니는 것으로 판단된다.

Polysulfone 재질의 다공성 평판막 및 실관막에 키토산 피막층을 형성시킨 후 반응성 염료인 Cibacron Blue 3GA를 고정화시켜 human serum albumin(HSA)의 결합용량이 최대 70 $\mu{g/cm}^2$인 단백질 친화성 막을 제조하였다. 친화성 평판막 모듈을 대상으로 HSA에 대한 용출 크로마토그래피 실험을 수행하여 eluent 용액의 최적 환경조건을 결정하였는바, 1M KCl이 첨가된 농도 0.06 M, pH 10의 universal buffer를 eluent로 사용했을 때 리간드와 결합된 단백질의 용출이 가장 우수하였다. 친화성 평판막 및 실관막 모듈을 대상으로 HSA의 전열 크로마토그래피 실험을 수행하여 단백질에 대한 동적 결합용량을 측정하였다. 이 결과 동적 결합용량은 평판막 모듈의 경우에는 loading 용액의 유량과 HSA의 농도가 증가함에 따라 평형 결합용량 값으로부터 크게 감소하였으나, 실관막 모듈의 경우에는 loading 용액의 유량과 HSA의 농도에 관계없이 항상 평형 결합용량 수준을 유지하였는바, 따라서 실관막 모듈이 평판막 모듈보다 단백질 친화성 크로마토그래피 분리관으로서 더 효과적이었다.

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.

The present work has been focused on the development of polysulfone (PSf) ultrafiltration membrane via blending by sulfonated polyethersulfone (SPES) in order to permeability enhancement for ultrafiltration of cheese whey. In this regards, sulfonation of polyethersulfone was carried out and the degree of sulfonation was estimated. The effect of blend ratio on morphology, porosity, permeation and fouling of PSf / SPES membranes was investigated. Filtration experiments of whey were conducted for separation of macromolecules and proteins from the lactose enrichment phase. The morphology and performance of membranes were evaluated using different techniques such SEM, AFM, and contact angle measurements. The contact angle measurement showed that the hydrophilicity of membrane was increased by adding SPES. According to AFM images, PSf / SPES membranes exhibited lower roughness compared to neat PSf membrane. The water and whey flux of these membranes were higher than neat membrane. However, flux was decreased when the PSf / SPES blend ratio was 0/100. It can be attributed to pore size and morphology changes. Further, fouling parameters of PSf membrane were improved after blending. The blend membranes show a great potential to be used practically in proteins separation from cheese whey.
