Description
技术领域technical field
本发明涉及能够实现高透过水量、并且能够长期稳定工作的复合半透膜。通过本发明得到的复合半透膜能够适合用于例如咸水的淡水化。The invention relates to a composite semi-permeable membrane capable of realizing high water permeation and working stably for a long time. The composite semipermeable membrane obtained by the present invention can be suitably used for desalination of salt water, for example.
背景技术Background technique
关于混合物的分离,存在多种用于除去溶解在溶剂(例如水)中的物质(例如盐类)的技术。近年来,作为用于节省能耗和节约资源的工艺,膜分离法的应用正在扩大。作为在膜分离法中使用的膜,有微滤膜、超滤膜、纳滤膜、反渗透膜等。这些膜被用于由例如海水、咸水、含有有害物质的水等获得饮用水的情况,或者用于工业用超纯水的制造、废水处理、贵重物品的回收等。Regarding the separation of mixtures, there are various techniques for removing substances (such as salts) dissolved in a solvent (such as water). In recent years, the application of the membrane separation method is expanding as a process for saving energy consumption and saving resources. As the membrane used in the membrane separation method, there are microfiltration membranes, ultrafiltration membranes, nanofiltration membranes, reverse osmosis membranes, and the like. These membranes are used in the case of obtaining drinking water from, for example, seawater, brackish water, water containing harmful substances, etc., or in the production of ultrapure water for industrial use, waste water treatment, recovery of valuables, and the like.
目前市售的大部分反渗透膜和纳滤膜是复合半透膜,并且存在下述两种:在支承膜上具有凝胶层和聚合物交联而成的活性层的复合半透膜;以及在支承膜上具有通过单体缩聚而形成的活性层的复合半透膜。其中,通过在支承膜上被覆以下分离功能层而得到的复合半透膜作为透过水量、选择分离性高的分离膜而被广泛使用,所述分离功能层由交联聚酰胺形成,该交联聚酰胺是通过多官能胺与多官能酰卤化物的缩聚反应而得到的。Most of the currently commercially available reverse osmosis membranes and nanofiltration membranes are composite semipermeable membranes, and there are two types of composite semipermeable membranes: a composite semipermeable membrane with a gel layer and an active layer cross-linked by a polymer on the supporting membrane; And a composite semipermeable membrane having an active layer formed by polycondensation of monomers on a support membrane. Among them, a composite semipermeable membrane obtained by coating a support membrane with a separation function layer formed of a cross-linked polyamide is widely used as a separation membrane with a high permeation rate and high selective separation performance. Copolyamides are obtained by polycondensation of polyfunctional amines and polyfunctional acid halides.
对于使用反渗透膜的淡化装置(fresh water generator)而言,为了进一步降低运转成本,需要更高的透过水量。对于这种要求,已知有使分离活性层中含有交联聚酰胺聚合物的复合半透膜与含有亚硝酸的水溶液接触的方法(参见专利文献1)或者与含有氯的水溶液接触的方法(参见专利文献2)等。For fresh water generators using reverse osmosis membranes, in order to further reduce operating costs, a higher amount of permeated water is required. For such a requirement, a method of contacting a composite semipermeable membrane containing a cross-linked polyamide polymer in the separation active layer with an aqueous solution containing nitrous acid (see Patent Document 1) or a method of contacting an aqueous solution containing chlorine ( See Patent Document 2) and the like.
另外,在使用反渗透膜的淡化装置中出现的问题之一为由无机物、有机物这样的膜污染物质引起的结垢。由于结垢,反渗透膜的透过水量显著降低。作为对其进行改善的方法,提出了通过在分离功能层表面涂布聚乙烯醇从而使带电状态为中性来抑制结垢的方法(参见专利文献3)等。In addition, one of the problems occurring in a desalination device using a reverse osmosis membrane is fouling caused by membrane fouling substances such as inorganic substances and organic substances. Due to fouling, the permeate water of the reverse osmosis membrane is significantly reduced. As a method of improving this, a method of suppressing fouling by coating polyvinyl alcohol on the surface of the separation functional layer to neutralize the charged state has been proposed (see Patent Document 3), and the like.
另外,为了消除结垢,通常是在进行一定期间的工作后利用碱、酸等进行药液清洗。因此为了能够长期持续稳定的工作,需要复合半透膜对碱、酸的耐久性,即接触化学药品前后的膜性能变化小。为了提高复合半透膜的耐碱性,公开了使复合半透膜接触pH9~13的氢离子浓度水溶液的方法(参见专利文献4)。另外,为了提高复合半透膜的耐酸性,公开了使复合半透膜接触环状硫酸酯的方法(参见专利文献5)。In addition, in order to eliminate scaling, it is usually cleaned with a chemical solution such as alkali or acid after a certain period of work. Therefore, in order to be able to work continuously and stably for a long time, the durability of the composite semipermeable membrane to alkali and acid is required, that is, the membrane performance before and after exposure to chemicals changes little. In order to improve the alkali resistance of the composite semipermeable membrane, a method of bringing the composite semipermeable membrane into contact with an aqueous solution having a hydrogen ion concentration of pH 9 to 13 is disclosed (see Patent Document 4). In addition, in order to improve the acid resistance of the composite semipermeable membrane, a method of bringing the composite semipermeable membrane into contact with a cyclic sulfate is disclosed (see Patent Document 5).

发明内容Contents of the invention
由此,对于反渗透膜所要求的性能而言,不仅要求除盐性能、透过水量,还要求能够长期稳定地工作。专利文献1、专利文献2中所记载的膜虽然能够提高透过水量,但存在耐结垢性低的问题。另一方面,专利文献3中记载的膜由于涂布而导致有时透过水量下降。另外,对于专利文献4、专利文献5中记载的复合半透膜而言,虽然能够得到复合半透膜的耐化学药品性,但为了消除结垢有时需要高频率的药液清洗,在稳定工作性方面存在研究的余地。Therefore, for the performance required for the reverse osmosis membrane, not only the desalination performance and the amount of permeated water but also long-term stable operation are required. Although the membranes described in Patent Document 1 and Patent Document 2 can increase the amount of permeated water, they have a problem of low fouling resistance. On the other hand, in the membrane described in Patent Document 3, the amount of permeated water may decrease due to coating. In addition, for the composite semipermeable membranes described in Patent Document 4 and Patent Document 5, although the chemical resistance of the composite semipermeable membrane can be obtained, in order to eliminate fouling, high-frequency cleaning with chemical solutions is sometimes required. There is scope for research on sexuality.

本申请的发明人进行了深入研究,结果发现,分离功能层的表面Zeta电位与复合半透膜的透过水量及附着在膜表面的膜污染物质的解吸性密切相关。The inventors of the present application conducted in-depth research and found that the surface zeta potential of the separation functional layer is closely related to the permeate water volume of the composite semipermeable membrane and the desorption of membrane fouling substances attached to the membrane surface.
所谓Zeta电位,是用于评价超薄膜层表面的净固定电荷的标准,本发明的薄膜层表面的Zeta电位可以由电迁移率通过下述数学式(1)所示的海姆霍兹-斯姆鲁乔斯基(Helmholtz-Smoluchowski)式求出。The so-called Zeta potential is used to evaluate the standard of the net fixed charge on the surface of the ultra-thin film layer, and the Zeta potential on the surface of the thin film layer of the present invention can be passed through the Helmholtz-Stock shown in the following mathematical formula (1) by electric mobility. It can be obtained by the Helmholtz-Smoluchowski formula.
(式(1)中,U为电迁移率,ε为溶液的介电常数,η为溶液的粘度。此处,溶液的介电常数、粘度使用测定温度时的文献值。)(In the formula (1), U is the electric mobility, ε is the dielectric constant of the solution, and η is the viscosity of the solution. Here, the dielectric constant and the viscosity of the solution use the literature value when measuring the temperature.)
对Zeta电位的测定原理进行说明。与材料接触的(水)溶液中,由于材料表面的电荷的影响,在表面附近存在不能流动的静止层。Zeta电位是相对于溶液(其存在于材料的静止层和流动层的边界面(滑动面))的电位。The principle of measurement of zeta potential will be described. In a (aqueous) solution in contact with a material, there is an immobile static layer near the surface due to the influence of the charge on the surface of the material. Zeta potential is the potential relative to the solution which exists at the boundary surface (slip surface) of the stationary layer and the flowing layer of the material.
此处,如果研究石英玻璃槽中的水溶液,则由于石英表面通常带负电,所以带正电的离子、粒子聚集在槽表面附近。另一方面,槽中心部的带负电的离子、粒子变多,在槽内产生了离子分布。如果在该状态下施加电场,则槽内反映离子分布,离子在槽内的位置以不同的泳动速度泳动(称为电渗流)。由于泳动速度反映槽表面的电荷,所以通过求出该泳动速度分布,由此可以评价槽表面的电荷(表面电位)。Here, if the aqueous solution in the quartz glass tank is studied, since the quartz surface is usually negatively charged, positively charged ions and particles gather near the tank surface. On the other hand, there are many negatively charged ions and particles in the center of the tank, and ion distribution occurs in the tank. If an electric field is applied in this state, the distribution of ions is reflected in the tank, and the ions swim at different swimming speeds at positions in the tank (called electroosmotic flow). Since the swimming speed reflects the charge on the surface of the cell, by obtaining the distribution of the swimming speed, the charge on the surface of the cell (surface potential) can be evaluated.
通常Zeta电位的测定可如下进行,即,使用尺寸为20mm×30mm的膜试样,将用于进行电泳的标准粒子(其为表面涂布有羟丙基纤维素的聚苯乙烯粒子(粒径520nm))分散在调整为规定浓度的NaCl水溶液进行测定。测定装置例如可使用大塚电子株式会社制电泳光散射光度计ELS-8000等。Usually, the determination of Zeta potential can be carried out as follows, that is, using a film sample with a size of 20 mm × 30 mm, the standard particles (which are polystyrene particles (particle diameter) coated with hydroxypropyl cellulose for electrophoresis 520nm)) dispersed in NaCl aqueous solution adjusted to a predetermined concentration for measurement. As a measurement device, for example, an electrophoretic light scattering photometer ELS-8000 manufactured by Otsuka Electronics Co., Ltd. can be used.
对于本发明的复合半透膜而言,需要在pH6、NaCl 10mM的条件下测定时将分离功能层的表面Zeta电位控制在±15mV以内(表面Zeta电位A),且在NaCl 1mM的条件下测定时(表面Zeta电位B)与表面Zeta电位A的电位差为±10mV以上。For the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention, it is necessary to control the surface Zeta potential of the separation function layer within ± 15mV (surface Zeta potential A) when measuring under the conditions of pH6, NaCl 10mM, and measure under the conditions of NaCl 1mM (surface zeta potential B) and the potential difference between surface zeta potential A is ±10mV or more.
聚酰胺分离功能层中含有来自多官能胺和多官能酰卤化物的未反应的氨基和羧基,根据这些官能团的解离度的不同,Zeta电位的值发生变化。分离功能层的pH6时的Zeta电位与膜污染物质的吸附性相关,如果将NaCl 10mM条件下的Zeta电位控制为±15mV以内,则能够抑制膜污染物质与膜表面原材料的相互作用。这是因为,如果Zeta电位被控制在±15mV以内,则表示膜表面为电中性,能够抑制与水中存在的具有带电基团的膜污染物质的电相互作用。Zeta电位为±15mV以上时,膜表面产生电偏置,因此变得容易发生与具有带电基团的膜污染物质的电相互作用。The polyamide separation functional layer contains unreacted amino groups and carboxyl groups derived from polyfunctional amines and polyfunctional acid halides, and the value of zeta potential changes depending on the degree of dissociation of these functional groups. The zeta potential of the separation functional layer at pH 6 is related to the adsorption of membrane fouling substances. If the zeta potential under the condition of NaCl 10mM is controlled within ±15mV, the interaction between membrane fouling substances and raw materials on the membrane surface can be suppressed. This is because if the zeta potential is controlled within ±15mV, it means that the membrane surface is electrically neutral, and the electrical interaction with the membrane fouling substances with charged groups present in the water can be suppressed. When the zeta potential is ±15 mV or more, the membrane surface is electrically biased, so that electrical interaction with membrane fouling substances having charged groups easily occurs.
另一方面,如果官能团的解离度高,则复合半透膜的除盐性能及透过水量变高。考虑这是因为,由于分离功能层的官能团量变多,因而静电排斥变大,或者亲水性变高。本发明中,通过使在NaCl10mM条件下测定时的Zeta电位A、与在NaCl 1mM条件下测定时的表面Zeta电位B的电位差为±10mV以上,由此能够满足高盐浓度下的膜污染物质的解吸性,而且还能够同时满足高除盐性能、高透过水量。在所述电位差小于±10mV的情况下,透过水量大幅降低,或者与膜污染物质的相互作用变强。On the other hand, if the degree of dissociation of the functional group is high, the desalination performance and the permeated water amount of the composite semipermeable membrane will become high. This is considered to be because the increase in the amount of functional groups in the separation functional layer increases electrostatic repulsion or increases hydrophilicity. In the present invention, by making the potential difference between the Zeta potential A when measured under the condition of NaCl 10mM and the surface Zeta potential B when measured under the condition of NaCl 1mM be ±10mV or more, the membrane fouling substance under the high salt concentration can be satisfied thus. Desorption, but also can meet the high desalination performance, high water permeation. When the potential difference is less than ±10 mV, the amount of permeated water decreases significantly, or the interaction with membrane fouling substances becomes stronger.
上述分离功能层在pH3、NaCl 1mM测定条件下的表面Zeta电位C、与上述分离功能层在pH 10、NaCl 1mM测定条件下的表面Zeta电位D的电位差与复合半透膜的性能稳定性相关,该电位差为40mV以下时,清洗复合半透膜时污染物质的剥离性高,故优选,较优选为25mV以下。The surface zeta potential C of the above-mentioned separation function layer under the measurement conditions of pH 3 and NaCl 1mM, and the potential difference between the surface zeta potential D of the above-mentioned separation function layer under the measurement conditions of pH 10 and NaCl 1mM are related to the performance stability of the composite semipermeable membrane , when the potential difference is 40 mV or less, the detachment of pollutants when cleaning the composite semipermeable membrane is high, so it is preferable, more preferably 25 mV or less.
为了满足上述Zeta电位的范围,分离功能层中的官能团比例“(氨基的摩尔当量)/(酰胺基的摩尔当量)”优选为0.2以上,较优选为0.6以上。如果“(氨基的摩尔当量)/(酰胺基的摩尔当量)”之比为0.2以上,则聚酰胺分离功能层中的官能团量充分,所以能够维持膜的亲水性,提高透过水量,除此之外,在后述的涂布层向分离功能层的固定化方面能够得到显著的效果。In order to satisfy the range of the above-mentioned zeta potential, the functional group ratio "(molar equivalent of amino group)/(molar equivalent of amide group)" in the separation functional layer is preferably 0.2 or more, more preferably 0.6 or more. If the ratio of "(molar equivalent of amino group)/(molar equivalent of amide group)" is 0.2 or more, the amount of functional groups in the polyamide separation functional layer is sufficient, so the hydrophilicity of the membrane can be maintained, the permeated water can be increased, and the In addition, a remarkable effect can be obtained on the immobilization of the coating layer to the separation functional layer described later.
聚酰胺分离功能层中的官能团量例如可以使用13C固体NMR法进行测定。具体而言,从复合半透膜剥离基材,得到聚酰胺分离功能层和多孔性支承层,然后溶解、除去多孔性支承层,得到聚酰胺分离功能层。将得到的聚酰胺分离功能层利用DD/MAS-13C固体NMR法进行测定,由各官能团的碳峰或各官能团所键合的碳峰的积分值的比较能够算出各官能团比。The amount of functional groups in the polyamide separation functional layer can be measured, for example, using a 13 C solid NMR method. Specifically, the substrate was peeled off from the composite semipermeable membrane to obtain a polyamide separation function layer and a porous support layer, and then the porous support layer was dissolved and removed to obtain a polyamide separation function layer. The obtained polyamide separation functional layer was measured by DD/MAS- 13C solid state NMR method, and the ratio of each functional group could be calculated from the comparison of the integrated values of the carbon peaks of each functional group or the carbon peaks to which each functional group was bonded.
另外,聚酰胺分离功能层的元素比率例如可以使用X射线光电子能谱法(XPS)进行分析。具体而言,可以通过使用“Journal ofPolymer Science”,Vol.26,559-572(1988)及“日本接着学会誌(日本粘接学会杂志)”,Vol.27,No.4(1991)中例示的X射线光电子能谱法(XPS)求出。In addition, the element ratio of the polyamide separation functional layer can be analyzed using, for example, X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS). Specifically, it can be exemplified by using "Journal of Polymer Science", Vol.26, 559-572 (1988) and "Journal of the Japan Adhesion Society (Journal of the Japan Adhesion Society)", Vol.27, No.4 (1991) determined by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS).
作为控制分离功能层的Zeta电位的方法,有在形成分离功能层时进行控制使得分离功能层具有的官能团的量变少的方法;将分离功能层具有的官能团转化为其他结构的方法;在分离功能层的表面涂布(被覆)聚合物的方法等。这些方法可以单独使用,也可以将复数种方法组合使用。但是,就仅涂布聚合物的方法而言,虽然能够降低分离功能层与膜污染物质的相互作用,但膜的透过水量降低,故不优选。As a method of controlling the zeta potential of the separation functional layer, there are methods of controlling the amount of functional groups that the separation functional layer has when forming the separation functional layer; methods of converting the functional groups that the separation functional layer has into other structures; A method of coating (coating) a polymer on the surface of the layer, and the like. These methods may be used alone or in combination of a plurality of methods. However, the method of coating only the polymer is not preferable since the interaction between the separation functional layer and membrane fouling substances can be reduced, but the amount of water permeated through the membrane decreases.
对于在分离功能层的表面涂布聚合物的方法而言,优选聚合物为亲水性化合物。通过使用亲水性化合物,能够减轻由被覆处理导致的复合半透膜的透过水量的降低。另外,上述聚合物也优选为交联聚合物。若被覆的聚合物为交联聚合物,则在连续使用复合半透膜时、用药液进行清洗时,能够抑制被覆层的剥离,能够呈现长期稳定的性能。For the method of coating a polymer on the surface of the separation functional layer, it is preferable that the polymer is a hydrophilic compound. By using a hydrophilic compound, it is possible to reduce the decrease in the amount of permeated water of the composite semipermeable membrane caused by the coating treatment. In addition, the aforementioned polymer is also preferably a cross-linked polymer. When the coated polymer is a cross-linked polymer, peeling of the coating layer can be suppressed when the composite semipermeable membrane is continuously used or washed with a chemical solution, and long-term stable performance can be exhibited.
本发明的亲水性化合物优选具有至少1个与膜表面的官能团反应的反应性基团。反应性基团只要能与膜表面的官能团形成共价键则可以为任意的反应性基团,例如,作为与膜表面的酰卤化物键合的反应性基团,可以举出羟基、氨基、环氧基等。作为具体的亲水性化合物的例子,可以举出聚乙烯醇、聚乙酸乙烯酯的部分皂化物、聚乙烯亚胺、聚烯丙基胺、聚表氨醇(polyepiaminohydrin)、胺改性聚表氯醇、聚氧乙烯二丙基胺、使用了含有氨基或羟基的单体的共聚物、乙酸乙烯酯与甲基丙烯酸酯共聚物的部分皂化物、乙酸乙烯酯与2-甲基丙烯酰氧基乙基磷酸胆碱共聚物的部分皂化物等。它们可以单独使用,也可以混合使用。其中,从反应性、所得膜的性能的方面考虑,优选使用伯氨基化合物或仲氨基化合物或具有羟基的聚合物。氨基与酰卤化物反应的情况下,交联聚酰胺分离功能层与亲水性化合物之间形成酰胺键,羟基与酰卤化物反应的情况下,交联聚酰胺分离功能层与亲水性化合物之间形成酯键。The hydrophilic compound of the present invention preferably has at least one reactive group that reacts with a functional group on the membrane surface. The reactive group may be any reactive group as long as it can form a covalent bond with the functional group on the film surface. For example, as the reactive group bonded to the acid halide on the film surface, hydroxyl group, amino group, Epoxy etc. Examples of specific hydrophilic compounds include polyvinyl alcohol, partially saponified polyvinyl acetate, polyethyleneimine, polyallylamine, polyepiaminohydrin, and amine-modified polyglycol. Chlorohydrin, polyoxyethylene dipropylamine, copolymers using monomers containing amino groups or hydroxyl groups, partially saponified products of copolymers of vinyl acetate and methacrylate, vinyl acetate and 2-methacryloyloxy Partial saponification of ethyl ethyl phosphorylcholine copolymer, etc. They can be used alone or in combination. Among them, it is preferable to use a primary amino compound or a secondary amino compound or a polymer having a hydroxyl group from the viewpoint of reactivity and the performance of the resulting film. When the amino group reacts with the acid halide, the cross-linked polyamide separation functional layer forms an amide bond with the hydrophilic compound, and when the hydroxyl group reacts with the acid halide, the cross-linked polyamide separation function layer and the hydrophilic compound form ester bonds.
另外,具有至少1个与膜表面的官能团反应的反应性基团的亲水性化合物还具有不与膜表面的官能团反应的亲水性基团也是优选的方式。作为亲水性基团,例如可以举出醚基、酰胺基、酯基、叔氨基、季铵基、氰基、硝基、烷氧基、羧基、羰基、酮基、烷氧基羰基、酰胺基、氰基、甲酰基、巯基、亚氨基、烷基硫基、亚磺酰基、磺酰基、磺酸基、亚硝基、磷酸基、磷酸胆碱基等。特别优选醚基、酰胺基、酯基等电中性的亲水性基团。另外,等量含有带正电基团和带负电基团的两性带电聚合物从控制本发明的Zeta电位方面考虑也是优选的。In addition, it is also preferable that the hydrophilic compound having at least one reactive group that reacts with the functional group on the membrane surface also has a hydrophilic group that does not react with the functional group on the membrane surface. Examples of the hydrophilic group include ether group, amide group, ester group, tertiary amino group, quaternary ammonium group, cyano group, nitro group, alkoxy group, carboxyl group, carbonyl group, ketone group, alkoxycarbonyl group, amide group, Cyano, formyl, mercapto, imino, alkylthio, sulfinyl, sulfonyl, sulfonic acid, nitroso, phosphoric acid, phosphorylcholine, etc. Electroneutral hydrophilic groups such as ether groups, amide groups, and ester groups are particularly preferable. In addition, an amphoteric charged polymer containing positively charged groups and negatively charged groups in equal amounts is also preferable from the viewpoint of controlling the Zeta potential of the present invention.
通过使这样的具有至少1个与膜表面的官能团反应的反应性基团的亲水性化合物与交联性聚酰胺分离功能层表面的官能团反应形成共价键而将该亲水性化合物固定在膜表面,由此与仅吸附的情况相比,能够呈现长期稳定的性能。By making such a hydrophilic compound having at least one reactive group that reacts with a functional group on the surface of the membrane react with a functional group on the surface of the crosslinkable polyamide separation functional layer to form a covalent bond, the hydrophilic compound is immobilized on the membrane surface. The membrane surface is thus able to exhibit long-term stable properties compared to the case of adsorption alone.
上述分离功能层中存在的官能团通过适当选择的化学反应能够转化为不同的官能团。例如,芳香族氨基通过使用四氧化二氮、亚硝酸、硝酸、亚硫酸氢钠、次氯酸钠等作为试剂,能够发生经由芳香族重氮鎓盐的重氮偶合反应。另外,通过氨基与亚硝基化合物的反应等也能将氨基转化为偶氮基。通过改变反应试剂的浓度、反应时的温度及时间,能够控制上述分离功能层的Zeta电位。另外,在转化官能团时,由于反应前的官能团的量也对得到的分离功能层的Zeta电位造成影响,所以通过下述方法也能控制分离功能层的Zeta电位,所述方法为:通过使多孔性支承层的厚度较薄从而使制造时的未反应物质的残存量降低的方法;形成分离功能层后通过热水清洗从而除去具有官能团的化合物的方法等。The functional groups present in the above separation functional layer can be converted into different functional groups by appropriately selected chemical reactions. For example, an aromatic amino group can undergo a diazonium coupling reaction via an aromatic diazonium salt by using dinitrogen tetroxide, nitrous acid, nitric acid, sodium bisulfite, sodium hypochlorite, etc. as a reagent. In addition, an amino group can also be converted into an azo group by a reaction of an amino group with a nitroso compound or the like. The zeta potential of the above-mentioned separation functional layer can be controlled by changing the concentration of the reaction reagent, temperature and time during the reaction. In addition, when the functional group is converted, since the amount of the functional group before the reaction also affects the Zeta potential of the obtained separation functional layer, the Zeta potential of the separation functional layer can also be controlled by the following method: by making the porous A method in which the thickness of the support layer is thin to reduce the remaining amount of unreacted substances during production; a method in which a compound having a functional group is removed by washing with hot water after forming a separation functional layer, and the like.
将分离功能层与试剂(其同氨基、羧基反应)接触的情况下,分离功能层的黄色指数优选为15以上50以下,较优选为20以上45以下。黄色指数根据分离功能层中的偶氮化合物及偶氮基的量而变化,如果在上述范围内,则能够得到本发明的Zeta电位及亲水性化合物的稳定性。如果分离功能层的黄色指数小于15,则分离功能层中的偶氮化合物的量少,所以不能得到本发明的Zeta电位。如果黄色指数超过50,则偶氮化合物的量多,所以透过水量变低。When the separation functional layer is brought into contact with a reagent (which reacts with an amino group or a carboxyl group), the yellowness index of the separation functional layer is preferably 15 to 50, more preferably 20 to 45. The yellowness index varies depending on the amount of the azo compound and the azo group in the separation functional layer, and within the above range, the stability of the zeta potential and the hydrophilic compound of the present invention can be obtained. If the yellow index of the separation functional layer is less than 15, the amount of the azo compound in the separation functional layer is small, so the zeta potential of the present invention cannot be obtained. If the yellowness index exceeds 50, the amount of azo compound is large, so the amount of permeated water becomes low.
所谓偶氮化合物,是具有偶氮基(-N=N-)的有机化合物,在使分离功能层与试剂(其同氨基、羧基反应)接触时在分离功能层内生成并被保持。The azo compound is an organic compound having an azo group (-N=N-), and is generated and retained in the separation function layer when the separation function layer is brought into contact with a reagent (which reacts with an amino group or a carboxyl group).
所谓黄色指数,如日本工业标准JIS K7373(2006)所规定,是聚合物的色调从无色或白色向黄色方向偏离的程度,并以正值的形式表示。The so-called yellowness index, as stipulated in Japanese Industrial Standard JIS K7373 (2006), is the degree to which the color tone of a polymer deviates from colorless or white to yellow, and is expressed in the form of a positive value.
分离功能层的黄色指数可利用色度仪(color meter)测定。例如,在支承膜上设置有分离功能层的复合半透膜中测定黄色指数的情况下,反射测定方法是简便的。另外,也可以通过如下方式测定:将复合半透膜以分离功能层朝下的方式放置于玻璃板上后,通过仅溶解支承膜的溶剂溶解并除去支承膜,通过透过测定方法测定残留在玻璃板上的分离功能层试样。需要说明的是,在将复合半透膜放置于玻璃板上时,优选将支承膜的基材预先剥离。色度仪可以使用SugaTest Instruments Co.,Ltd.制SM Colour Computer SM-7等。The yellow index of the separation functional layer can be measured by a color meter. For example, in the case of measuring the yellowness index in a composite semipermeable membrane provided with a separation function layer on a support membrane, the reflection measurement method is simple. In addition, it can also be measured by placing the composite semipermeable membrane on a glass plate with the separation function layer facing down, dissolving and removing the supporting membrane with a solvent that only dissolves the supporting membrane, and measuring the remaining amount of the membrane by a permeation measurement method. Separation of functional layer samples on a glass plate. In addition, when placing a composite semipermeable membrane on a glass plate, it is preferable to peel off the base material of a supporting membrane beforehand. As a colorimeter, SM Color Computer SM-7 manufactured by SugaTest Instruments Co., Ltd. can be used.
本发明中,通过使聚酰胺分离功能层具有酰胺基、偶氮基及酚式羟基、并且使酚式羟基/酰胺基之比为0.10以下,由此能够得到与酸、碱接触后透过水量及低结垢性的变化也小、耐化学药品性高的复合半透膜,故优选。酚式羟基伴随着溶液pH的变化而发生质子化、或去质子化,因此由于构成分离功能层的聚酰胺链的荷电状态发生变化、聚酰胺链的高次结构发生变化,导致淡化量、除盐性能可能发生变化。通过多官能芳香族胺和多官能酰卤化物的界面缩聚形成的交联芳香族聚酰胺中虽然不存在酚式羟基,但在界面缩聚后的后处理中通过与四氧化二氮、亚硝酸、硝酸、亚硫酸氢钠、次氯酸钠等试剂反应,由此芳香族氨基向芳香族重氮鎓盐转化。之后,通过与水接触,发生芳香族重氮鎓盐向酚式羟基转化的反应。另外,通过使芳香族重氮鎓盐与酚类反应的重氮偶合反应,也可以导入在界面缩聚刚完成后的交联芳香族聚酰胺中不存在的酚式羟基。In the present invention, by making the polyamide separation functional layer have amide groups, azo groups, and phenolic hydroxyl groups, and making the ratio of phenolic hydroxyl groups/amide groups 0.10 or less, the amount of permeated water after contact with acids and alkalis can be obtained. It is a composite semipermeable membrane with low change in fouling property and high chemical resistance, so it is preferred. The phenolic hydroxyl group is protonated or deprotonated with the change of solution pH, so the charge state of the polyamide chain constituting the separation functional layer changes, and the higher order structure of the polyamide chain changes, resulting in the amount of desalination, Salt removal performance may vary. Although there is no phenolic hydroxyl group in the cross-linked aromatic polyamide formed by the interfacial polycondensation of polyfunctional aromatic amines and polyfunctional acid halides, in the post-treatment after interfacial polycondensation, it is combined with dinitrogen tetroxide, nitrous acid, Nitric acid, sodium bisulfite, sodium hypochlorite and other reagents react, thereby converting aromatic amino groups into aromatic diazonium salts. Thereafter, by contacting with water, a conversion reaction of an aromatic diazonium salt to a phenolic hydroxyl group occurs. In addition, a phenolic hydroxyl group that does not exist in the crosslinked aromatic polyamide immediately after interfacial polycondensation can also be introduced by a diazo coupling reaction in which an aromatic diazonium salt is reacted with a phenol.
需要说明的是,酚式羟基/酰胺基之比的下限没有特别限定,但该比例如为0.005以上,或者也可以为0.01以上。In addition, although the lower limit of the ratio of phenolic hydroxyl group/amide group is not specifically limited, For example, this ratio may be 0.005 or more, or may be 0.01 or more.
本发明的复合半透膜中,通过使芳香族重氮鎓盐(其由交联芳香族聚酰胺的后处理生成)与具有供电子基团的芳香族化合物、或酸度高的具有质子的碳氢酸反应,能够使其优先发生重氮偶合反应,抑制由与水的反应生成的酚式羟基的产生。作为供电子基团,例如可以举出羟基、氨基、烷氧基,但是如上所述不优选使用具有羟基的酚性化合物,若考虑水溶性,则优选使用具有芳香族氨基的化合物。In the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention, by making aromatic diazonium salt (which is produced by post-treatment of cross-linked aromatic polyamide) and aromatic compound with electron-donating group, or carbon with proton with high acidity The hydrogen acid reaction can make the diazo coupling reaction take place preferentially, and suppress the generation of phenolic hydroxyl formed by the reaction with water. The electron donating group includes, for example, a hydroxyl group, an amino group, and an alkoxy group. However, as mentioned above, it is not preferable to use a phenolic compound having a hydroxyl group. In consideration of water solubility, it is preferable to use a compound having an aromatic amino group.
分离功能层的均方根表面粗糙度(Rms)优选为60nm以上。通过使均方根表面粗糙度为60nm以上,分离功能层的表面积变大,透过水量变高。另一方面,涂布层厚、均方根表面粗糙度小于60nm的情况下,透过水量大幅降低。The root mean square surface roughness (Rms) of the separation functional layer is preferably 60 nm or more. By making the root mean square surface roughness 60 nm or more, the surface area of the separation function layer becomes large, and the amount of permeated water becomes high. On the other hand, when the thickness of the coating layer and the root mean square surface roughness are less than 60 nm, the amount of permeated water decreases significantly.
可以通过在通过界面缩聚形成分离功能层时的单体浓度、温度来控制分离功能层的均方根表面粗糙度。例如,如果界面缩聚时的温度低,则均方根表面粗糙度变小,如果温度高则均方根表面粗糙度变大。另外,在分离功能层表面进行聚合物的涂布的情况下,若涂布层厚,则均方根表面粗糙度变小。The root mean square surface roughness of the separation functional layer can be controlled by the monomer concentration, temperature when the separation functional layer is formed by interfacial polycondensation. For example, when the temperature at the time of interfacial polycondensation is low, the root mean square surface roughness becomes small, and when the temperature is high, the root mean square surface roughness becomes large. In addition, when a polymer is applied to the surface of the separation functional layer, the root mean square surface roughness becomes smaller as the applied layer becomes thicker.
需要说明的是,均方根表面粗糙度可通过原子力显微镜(AFM)进行测定。均方根表面粗糙度为将从基准面至指定面的偏差的平方进行平均而得的值的平方根。此处,测定面是指显示全部测定数据的面,指定面是作为粗糙度计量的对象的面,是指测定面中以夹具指定的特定的部分,基准面是指将指定面的高度的平均值作为Z0时,以Z=Z0所表示的平面。AFM例如可以使用Digital Instruments公司制NanoScope IIIa。It should be noted that the root mean square surface roughness can be measured by an atomic force microscope (AFM). The root mean square surface roughness is the square root of a value obtained by averaging the squares of the deviations from the reference plane to the specified plane. Here, the measurement surface refers to the surface on which all measurement data are displayed, the specified surface is the surface to be measured for roughness, and refers to a specific part of the measurement surface specified by a jig, and the reference surface refers to the average height of the specified surface. When the value is Z0, the plane represented by Z=Z0. For the AFM, NanoScope IIIa manufactured by Digital Instruments can be used, for example.
(1-2)支承膜(1-2) Support film
支承膜用于对具有分离性能的聚酰胺分离功能层赋予强度,其自身实质上不具有对离子等的分离性能。支承膜由基材和多孔性支承层形成。The support membrane is used to impart strength to the polyamide separation functional layer having separation performance, and itself does not substantially have separation performance for ions or the like. The support membrane is formed from a substrate and a porous support layer.
支承膜的孔的尺寸、孔的分布没有特别限定,但优选下述支承膜:例如,具有均匀且微小的孔,或者具有从形成分离功能层一侧的表面向另一面逐渐增大的微孔,并且,形成分离功能层一侧的表面的微孔的大小为0.1nm以上100nm以下的支承膜。The size of the pores of the support membrane and the distribution of the pores are not particularly limited, but the following support membranes are preferred: for example, have uniform and minute pores, or have micropores that gradually increase from the surface on which the separation functional layer is formed to the other surface. , and form a support membrane in which the size of micropores on the surface of the separation functional layer is 0.1 nm to 100 nm.
支承膜可以如下得到,即,例如通过在基材上流延高分子聚合物从而在基材上形成多孔性支承层。支承膜所使用的材料、其形状没有特别限定。The support film can be obtained by, for example, casting a high molecular polymer on the base material to form a porous support layer on the base material. The material used for the support film and its shape are not particularly limited.
作为基材,可以示例由选自聚酯及芳香族聚酰胺中的至少一种形成的布帛。特别优选使用机械稳定性及热稳定性高的聚酯。As the base material, a fabric made of at least one selected from polyester and aramid can be exemplified. In particular, polyesters with high mechanical and thermal stability are preferably used.
作为用于基材的布帛,可以优选使用长纤维无纺布、短纤维无纺布。从要求不产生下述不良状况的优异的成膜性的方面出发,可以更优选使用长纤维无纺布,所述不良状况为:在基材上流延高分子聚合物的溶液时因其过渗透而透过背面,基材与多孔性支承层剥离,或因基材起毛等而产生膜的不均匀化或针孔等缺陷。作为长纤维无纺布,可列举由热塑性连续长丝构成的长纤维无纺布等。通过由长纤维无纺布形成基材,可以抑制使用短纤维无纺布时产生的因起毛而产生的高分子溶液流延时的不均匀化、膜缺陷。另外,从在对复合半透膜进行连续成膜的工序中、在基材的成膜方向上施加张力的方面考虑,作为基材,也优选使用尺寸稳定性优异的长纤维无纺布。特别是通过使配置在基材的与多孔性支承层为相反侧的纤维的取向相对于成膜方向为纵向取向,可以保持基材的强度,防止膜破裂等,因此是优选的。此处,纵向取向是指纤维的取向方向与成膜方向平行或接近于平行。相反,将纤维的取向方向与成膜方向成直角、或接近于直角的情况称为横向取向。As the fabric used for the base material, long-fiber nonwoven fabrics and short-fiber nonwoven fabrics can be preferably used. Long-fiber nonwoven fabrics can be more preferably used from the point of view of requiring excellent film-forming properties that do not cause the disadvantage of excessive permeation when casting a high-molecular polymer solution on a substrate. On the other hand, through the back surface, the base material and the porous support layer are peeled off, or defects such as unevenness of the film and pinholes occur due to fluffing of the base material. Examples of the long-fiber nonwoven fabric include long-fiber nonwoven fabrics made of thermoplastic continuous filaments, and the like. By forming the base material from a long-fiber nonwoven fabric, it is possible to suppress non-uniformity during casting of a polymer solution and film defects due to fluff that occurs when using a short-fiber nonwoven fabric. In addition, it is also preferable to use a long-fiber nonwoven fabric excellent in dimensional stability as the substrate from the viewpoint of applying tension in the film-forming direction of the substrate during the continuous film-forming step of the composite semipermeable membrane. In particular, by orienting the fibers disposed on the opposite side of the substrate to the porous support layer in the longitudinal direction with respect to the film-forming direction, it is possible to maintain the strength of the substrate and prevent the film from breaking, which is preferable. Here, the longitudinal orientation means that the orientation direction of the fibers is parallel or nearly parallel to the film-forming direction. On the contrary, the case where the orientation direction of fibers is at right angles to the film forming direction, or close to right angles is called transverse orientation.
作为无纺布基材的纤维取向度,优选与多孔性支承层为相反侧的纤维的取向度在0°~25°的范围。此处,所谓纤维取向度是表示构成支承膜的无纺布基材的纤维的方向的指标,是指在将进行连续成膜时的成膜方向作为0°、与成膜方向成直角的方向、即无纺布基材的宽度方向作为90°时的、构成无纺布基材的纤维的平均角度。因此,纤维取向度越接近0°,表示越为纵向取向,纤维取向度越接近90°,表示越为横向取向。As the degree of fiber orientation of the nonwoven fabric base material, the degree of orientation of the fibers on the side opposite to the porous support layer is preferably in the range of 0° to 25°. Here, the degree of fiber orientation is an index indicating the direction of the fibers of the nonwoven fabric substrate constituting the support film, and refers to a direction at right angles to the film-forming direction when the film-forming direction during continuous film-forming is 0°. , that is, when the width direction of the nonwoven fabric substrate is 90°, the average angle of the fibers constituting the nonwoven fabric substrate. Therefore, the closer the degree of fiber orientation is to 0°, the more longitudinally oriented the fiber orientation is, and the closer the fiber orientation is to 90°, the more transversely oriented.
在复合半透膜的制造工序或元件的制造工序中包含加热工序,然而通过加热,会引起支承膜或复合半透膜收缩的现象。特别是在连续成膜中,因为没有在宽度方向上赋予张力,因此在宽度方向上容易收缩。由于支承膜或复合半透膜收缩,会产生尺寸稳定性等方面的问题,所以作为基材,期望热尺寸变化率小的基材。A heating step is included in the manufacturing process of the composite semipermeable membrane or the manufacturing process of the element, however, the shrinkage phenomenon of the supporting membrane or the composite semipermeable membrane may be caused by heating. Especially in continuous film formation, since tension is not applied in the width direction, it tends to shrink in the width direction. Since the shrinkage of the supporting membrane or the composite semipermeable membrane causes problems such as dimensional stability, a substrate having a small rate of thermal dimensional change is desired as the substrate.
在无纺布基材中,配置在与多孔性支承层为相反侧的纤维与配置在多孔性支承层侧的纤维的取向度之差为10°~90°时,可以抑制由热导致的宽度方向的变化,是优选的。In the non-woven fabric base material, when the difference in the degree of orientation between the fibers arranged on the side opposite to the porous support layer and the fibers arranged on the porous support layer side is 10° to 90°, the width caused by heat can be suppressed. A change of direction is preferred.
基材的透气度优选为2.0cc/cm2/sec以上。如果透气度在该范围内,则复合半透膜的透过水量提高。认为这是因为:在形成支承膜的工序中,在基材上流延高分子聚合物并浸渍在凝固浴中时,由于从基材侧的非溶剂置换速度变快,所以多孔性支承层的内部结构变化,对之后的形成分离功能层的工序中的单体保持量、扩散速度造成影响。The air permeability of the substrate is preferably 2.0 cc/cm 2 /sec or higher. When the air permeability is within this range, the permeation water rate of the composite semipermeable membrane increases. This is considered to be because: in the process of forming the support film, when the high molecular polymer is cast on the base material and immersed in the coagulation bath, since the replacement rate of the non-solvent from the base material side becomes faster, the inside of the porous support layer The structural change affects the amount of monomer retained and the diffusion rate in the subsequent step of forming the separation functional layer.
需要说明的是,可基于JIS L1096(2010)、通过弗雷泽型试验机(Frazier type tester)来测定透气度。例如,切下200mm×200mm大小的基材,作为样品。将该样品安装在弗雷泽型试验机上,调整吸入风扇和空气孔以使得倾斜型气压计变为125Pa的压力,可从此时的垂直型气压计所显示的压力和所使用的空气孔的种类来计算通过基材的空气量,即透气度。弗雷泽型试验机可使用KATO TECHCO.,LTD.制KES-F8-AP1等。The air permeability can be measured with a Frazier type tester based on JIS L1096 (2010). For example, a substrate having a size of 200 mm×200 mm is cut out as a sample. Install this sample on a Fraser-type testing machine, adjust the suction fan and air hole so that the pressure of the inclined type barometer becomes 125Pa, and the pressure displayed by the vertical type barometer at this time and the type of air hole used can be obtained. To calculate the amount of air passing through the substrate, that is, the air permeability. As the Fraser type testing machine, KES-F8-AP1 made by KATO TECHCO., LTD. can be used.
另外,基材的厚度优选在10μm以上200μm以下的范围内,更优选在30μm以上120μm以下的范围内。In addition, the thickness of the substrate is preferably in the range of 10 μm to 200 μm, and more preferably in the range of 30 μm to 120 μm.
本发明中的支承膜具有基材和多孔性支承层,实质上不具有对离子等的分离性能,用于对实质上具有分离性能的分离功能层赋予强度。The support membrane in the present invention has a base material and a porous support layer, has substantially no separation performance for ions, etc., and is used to impart strength to a separation functional layer having substantially separation performance.
对于多孔性支承层的原材料而言,可以单独或混合使用下述物质:聚砜、聚醚砜、聚酰胺、聚酯、纤维素系聚合物、烯类聚合物(vinyl polymer)、聚苯硫醚、聚苯硫醚砜、聚苯砜、聚苯醚等均聚物或共聚物。此处,作为纤维素系聚合物,可以使用乙酸纤维素、硝酸纤维素等,作为烯类聚合物,可以使用聚乙烯、聚丙烯、聚氯乙烯、聚丙烯腈等。其中,优选聚砜、聚酰胺、聚酯、乙酸纤维素、硝酸纤维素、聚氯乙烯、聚丙烯腈、聚苯硫醚、聚苯硫醚砜等均聚物或共聚物。较优选举出乙酸纤维素、聚砜、聚苯硫醚砜、或聚苯砜,进一步地,这些原材料中,由于聚砜的化学稳定性、机械稳定性、热稳定性高、成型容易,所以通常可以使用聚砜。For the raw material of the porous support layer, the following materials can be used alone or in combination: polysulfone, polyethersulfone, polyamide, polyester, cellulose-based polymer, vinyl polymer, polyphenylene sulfide Ether, polyphenylene sulfide sulfone, polyphenylene sulfone, polyphenylene ether and other homopolymers or copolymers. Here, as the cellulosic polymer, cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose, etc. can be used, and as the vinyl polymer, polyethylene, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, polyacrylonitrile, etc. can be used. Among them, homopolymers or copolymers such as polysulfone, polyamide, polyester, cellulose acetate, nitrocellulose, polyvinyl chloride, polyacrylonitrile, polyphenylene sulfide, and polyphenylene sulfide sulfone are preferable. More preferably, cellulose acetate, polysulfone, polyphenylene sulfide sulfone, or polyphenylene sulfone are used. Furthermore, among these raw materials, polysulfone has high chemical stability, mechanical stability, and high thermal stability, and is easy to form. Typically polysulfone can be used.
具体而言,如果使用由以下化学式所示的重复单元形成的聚砜,则易于控制支承膜的孔径,尺寸稳定性高,故优选。Specifically, use of polysulfone composed of a repeating unit represented by the following chemical formula is preferable since it is easy to control the pore diameter of the support membrane and has high dimensional stability.
例如,通过将上述聚砜的N,N-二甲基甲酰胺(DMF)溶液以一定的厚度流延到密织的聚酯布或聚酯无纺布上,然后使其在水中湿式凝固,由此可以获得表面的大部分具有直径为数10nm以下的微孔的支承膜。For example, by casting the N,N-dimethylformamide (DMF) solution of the above-mentioned polysulfone to a certain thickness on densely woven polyester cloth or polyester non-woven fabric, and then wet coagulating it in water, Thereby, a supporting membrane having micropores with a diameter of several tens of nm or less in most of the surface can be obtained.
上述支承膜的厚度会对所获得的复合半透膜的强度及将其制成元件时的填充密度造成影响。为了获得充分的机械强度及填充密度,支承膜的厚度优选在30μm以上300μm以下的范围内,更优选在100μm以上220μm以下的范围内。The thickness of the supporting membrane affects the strength of the obtained composite semipermeable membrane and the packing density when it is made into a device. In order to obtain sufficient mechanical strength and packing density, the thickness of the supporting film is preferably in the range of 30 μm to 300 μm, more preferably in the range of 100 μm to 220 μm.
多孔性支承层的形态可以通过扫描电子显微镜、透射式电子显微镜、或原子力显微镜来观察。例如,如果使用扫描电子显微镜来观察,则在从基材剥离多孔性支承层之后,利用冷冻断裂法将其切断从而制成用于截面观察的样品。将铂、铂-钯或四氯化钌(优选四氯化钌)薄薄地涂布到该样品上,在3~15kV的加速电压下,使用高分辨率场发射扫描电子显微镜(UHR-FE-SEM)进行观察。高分辨率场发射扫描电子显微镜可以使用株式会社日立制作所制S-900型电子显微镜等。The morphology of the porous support layer can be observed with a scanning electron microscope, a transmission electron microscope, or an atomic force microscope. For example, when observing using a scanning electron microscope, the porous support layer is peeled off from the substrate, and then cut by freeze fracture to prepare a sample for cross-sectional observation. Thinly coat platinum, platinum-palladium or ruthenium tetrachloride (preferably ruthenium tetrachloride) on the sample, and use a high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscope (UHR-FE- SEM) for observation. As a high-resolution field emission scanning electron microscope, Hitachi, Ltd. S-900 electron microscope etc. can be used.
本发明中使用的支承膜既可以从Millipore公司制“Milliporefilter VSWP”(商品名)或东洋滤纸公司制“Ultrafilter UK10”(商品名)这样的各种市售材料中选择,也可以按照“Office of Saline WaterResearch and Development Progress Report”,No.359(1968)中记载的方法等制造。The support film used in the present invention can be selected from various commercially available materials such as "Milliporefilter VSWP" (trade name) manufactured by Millipore Corporation or "Ultrafilter UK10" (trade name) manufactured by Toyo Filter Paper Co., Ltd., or can be selected according to "Office of Saline Water Research and Development Progress Report", No. 359 (1968) described in the method and so on.
多孔性支承层的厚度优选在20μm以上100μm以下的范围内。通过使多孔性支承层的厚度为20μm以上,可以获得良好的耐压性,同时可获得没有缺陷的均匀的支承膜,因此,具有这样的多孔性支承层的复合半透膜可显示出良好的除盐性能。如果多孔性支承层的厚度超过100μm,则制造时的未反应物质的残存量增加,由此透过水量降低,同时耐化学药品性降低。The thickness of the porous support layer is preferably in the range of 20 μm or more and 100 μm or less. By making the thickness of the porous support layer more than 20 μm, good pressure resistance can be obtained, and a uniform support film without defects can be obtained simultaneously, therefore, the composite semipermeable membrane with such a porous support layer can show good properties. Salt removal performance. If the thickness of the porous support layer exceeds 100 μm, the remaining amount of unreacted substances during production increases, thereby reducing the amount of permeated water and reducing chemical resistance.
需要说明的是,可通过数字式测厚仪(digital thickness gauge)来测定基材的厚度及复合半透膜的厚度。另外,因为与支承膜相比,分离功能层的厚度非常薄,所以可将复合半透膜的厚度视为支承膜的厚度。因此,用数字式测厚仪测定复合半透膜的厚度,并从复合半透膜的厚度减去基材的厚度,从而能够简便地计算出多孔性支承层的厚度。作为数字式测厚仪,可使用尾崎制作所株式会社的PEACOCK等。使用数字式测厚仪的情况下,测定20个位置的厚度,算出平均值。It should be noted that the thickness of the base material and the thickness of the composite semipermeable membrane can be measured by a digital thickness gauge. In addition, since the thickness of the separation functional layer is very thin compared with the support membrane, the thickness of the composite semipermeable membrane can be regarded as the thickness of the support membrane. Therefore, the thickness of the porous support layer can be easily calculated by measuring the thickness of the composite semipermeable membrane with a digital thickness gauge and subtracting the thickness of the substrate from the thickness of the composite semipermeable membrane. As a digital thickness gauge, PEACOCK of Ozaki Seisakusho Co., Ltd., etc. can be used. In the case of using a digital thickness gauge, the thickness at 20 positions was measured, and the average value was calculated.
需要说明的是,在基材的厚度或复合半透膜的厚度难以通过测厚仪测定的情况下,可使用扫描电子显微镜测定。对于1个样品,从任意5个位置的截面观察的电子显微镜照片测定厚度,算出平均值,由此求出厚度。It should be noted that, when the thickness of the substrate or the thickness of the composite semipermeable membrane is difficult to measure with a thickness gauge, it can be measured using a scanning electron microscope. For one sample, the thickness was obtained by measuring the thickness from electron micrographs observed in cross-sections at five arbitrary positions, and calculating the average value.
2.制造方法2. Manufacturing method
接下来,对上述复合半透膜的制造方法进行说明。制造方法包括支承膜的形成工序及分离功能层的形成工序。Next, a method for producing the above-mentioned composite semipermeable membrane will be described. The production method includes a step of forming a support membrane and a step of forming a separation function layer.
(2-1)支承膜的形成工序(2-1) Formation process of supporting film
支承膜的形成工序包括在基材上涂布高分子溶液的工序及将涂布了溶液的所述基材浸渍在凝固浴中从而使高分子凝固的工序。The step of forming the supporting film includes a step of coating a polymer solution on a substrate, and a step of immersing the substrate coated with the solution in a coagulation bath to coagulate the polymer.
在基材上涂布高分子溶液的工序中,通过将作为多孔性支承层的成分的高分子溶解在该高分子的良溶剂中来制备高分子溶液。In the step of coating the polymer solution on the substrate, the polymer solution is prepared by dissolving the polymer that is a component of the porous support layer in a good solvent for the polymer.
关于涂布高分子溶液时的高分子溶液的温度,在使用聚砜作为高分子的情况下,优选为10℃~60℃的范围。如果高分子溶液的温度在该范围内,则高分子不会析出,高分子溶液在充分含浸直至基材的纤维间之后固化。其结果,通过固着效果(anchor effect)使得多孔性支承层与基材牢固地接合,可获得良好的支承膜。需要说明的是,高分子溶液的优选温度范围可根据所用高分子的种类、所期望的溶液粘度等来适当调整。The temperature of the polymer solution when applying the polymer solution is preferably in the range of 10°C to 60°C when polysulfone is used as the polymer. When the temperature of the polymer solution is within this range, the polymer solution does not precipitate, and the polymer solution solidifies after fully impregnating the interfibers of the substrate. As a result, the porous support layer is firmly bonded to the base material due to the anchor effect, and a good support film can be obtained. It should be noted that the preferred temperature range of the polymer solution can be appropriately adjusted according to the type of polymer used, desired solution viscosity, and the like.
在基材上涂布高分子溶液之后、到浸渍在凝固浴中为止的时间优选在0.1~5秒的范围内。如果到浸渍在凝固浴中为止的时间在该范围内,则含有高分子的有机溶剂溶液充分含浸直至基材的纤维间之后固化。需要说明的是,到浸渍在凝固浴中为止的时间的优选范围可根据所用高分子溶液的种类、所期望的溶液粘度等来适当调整。The time from coating the polymer solution on the substrate to immersing in the coagulation bath is preferably in the range of 0.1 to 5 seconds. If the time until immersion in the coagulation bath is within this range, the polymer-containing organic solvent solution is sufficiently impregnated to interfibers of the substrate, and then cured. In addition, the preferable range of time until immersion in a coagulation bath can be adjusted suitably according to the kind of polymer solution to be used, desired solution viscosity, etc.
作为凝固浴,通常使用水,但只要为不溶解作为多孔性支承层的成分的高分子的凝固浴即可。根据凝固浴的组成不同,所获得的支承膜的膜形态会变化,由此获得的复合半透膜也会变化。凝固浴的温度优选为-20℃~100℃,进一步优选为10℃~50℃。如果凝固浴的温度高于上述范围,则由热运动引起的凝固浴表面的振动变得激烈,膜形成后的膜表面的平滑性易于降低。相反,如果温度过低,则凝固速度变慢,成膜性降低。As the coagulation bath, water is generally used, but any coagulation bath may be used as long as it does not dissolve the polymer that is a component of the porous support layer. Depending on the composition of the coagulation bath, the membrane morphology of the obtained support membrane will change, and the composite semipermeable membrane thus obtained will also change. The temperature of the coagulation bath is preferably -20°C to 100°C, more preferably 10°C to 50°C. If the temperature of the coagulation bath is higher than the above range, the vibration of the surface of the coagulation bath due to thermal motion becomes severe, and the smoothness of the film surface after film formation tends to decrease. Conversely, if the temperature is too low, the solidification rate will be slowed down and the film-forming properties will be lowered.
接下来,为了除去残存在膜中的溶剂,将如上所述获得的支承膜用热水清洗。此时的热水的温度优选为40℃~100℃,进一步优选为60℃~95℃。如果在该范围内,则支承膜的收缩度不变大,透过水量良好。相反,如果温度过低,则清洗效果小。Next, in order to remove the solvent remaining in the membrane, the support membrane obtained as described above was washed with hot water. The temperature of the hot water at this time is preferably 40°C to 100°C, more preferably 60°C to 95°C. Within this range, the degree of shrinkage of the support film does not increase, and the amount of permeated water is good. On the contrary, if the temperature is too low, the cleaning effect will be small.
(2-2)分离功能层的形成工序(2-2) Step of forming the separation functional layer
接下来,对构成复合半透膜的分离功能层的形成工序进行说明。在聚酰胺分离功能层的形成工序中,使用含有上述多官能胺的水溶液和含有上述多官能酰卤化物的有机溶剂溶液,在支承膜的表面进行界面缩聚,由此形成聚酰胺分离功能层。Next, the formation process of the separation functional layer constituting the composite semipermeable membrane will be described. In the forming step of the polyamide separation function layer, the polyamide separation function layer is formed by performing interfacial polycondensation on the surface of the support membrane using an aqueous solution containing the polyfunctional amine and an organic solvent solution containing the polyfunctional acid halide.
作为溶解多官能酰卤化物的有机溶剂,只要是与水为非混溶性、且不破坏支承膜、并且不阻碍交联聚酰胺的生成反应的溶剂则均可使用。作为代表例,可列举液态烃、三氯三氟乙烷等卤代烃。如果考虑为不破坏臭氧层的物质、获得的容易程度、操作的容易程度、操作上的安全性,则优选使用己烷、庚烷、辛烷、壬烷、癸烷、十一烷、十二烷、十三烷、十四烷、十七烷、十六烷、环辛烷、乙基环己烷、1-辛烯、1-癸烯等单一物质或它们的混合物。As the organic solvent for dissolving the polyfunctional acid halide, any solvent can be used as long as it is immiscible with water, does not damage the support film, and does not inhibit the formation reaction of the crosslinked polyamide. Typical examples include liquid hydrocarbons and halogenated hydrocarbons such as trichlorotrifluoroethane. Considering the substances that do not destroy the ozone layer, the ease of obtaining, the ease of handling, and the safety of handling, hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, decane, undecane, and dodecane are preferably used. , tridecane, tetradecane, heptadecane, hexadecane, cyclooctane, ethylcyclohexane, 1-octene, 1-decene and other single substances or their mixtures.
在多官能胺水溶液或含有多官能酰卤化物的有机溶剂溶液中,只要不妨碍两成分间的反应,则也可根据需要含有酰化催化剂、极性溶剂、束酸剂、表面活性剂、抗氧化剂等化合物。In the multifunctional amine aqueous solution or the organic solvent solution containing the multifunctional acid halide, as long as the reaction between the two components is not hindered, an acylation catalyst, a polar solvent, an acid-binding agent, a surfactant, an anti-acid compounds such as oxidants.
为了在支承膜上进行界面缩聚,首先,用多官能胺水溶液被覆支承膜表面。此处,含有多官能胺的水溶液的浓度优选为0.1重量%以上20重量%以下,更优选为0.5重量%以上15重量%以下。In order to perform interfacial polycondensation on the support membrane, first, the surface of the support membrane is coated with an aqueous solution of polyfunctional amine. Here, the concentration of the aqueous solution containing a polyfunctional amine is preferably from 0.1% by weight to 20% by weight, more preferably from 0.5% by weight to 15% by weight.
作为用多官能胺水溶液被覆支承膜表面的方法,只要能通过该水溶液对支承膜的表面进行均匀且连续的被覆即可,可通过公知的涂布方法(例如,将水溶液涂布至支承膜表面的方法,将支承膜浸渍在水溶液中的方法等)进行。支承膜与多官能胺水溶液的接触时间优选在5秒以上10分钟以下的范围内,更优选在10秒以上3分钟以下的范围内。接着,优选通过排液工序将过量涂布的水溶液除去。作为排液的方法,存在例如将膜面保持在竖直方向使液体自然流下的方法等。排液后,也可以将膜面干燥以除去水溶液中的全部或一部分的水。As a method of coating the surface of the support membrane with an aqueous solution of polyfunctional amine, as long as the surface of the support membrane can be uniformly and continuously coated by the aqueous solution, it can be applied by a known coating method (for example, applying an aqueous solution to the surface of the support membrane). method, the method of immersing the support film in an aqueous solution, etc.). The contact time between the support film and the polyfunctional amine aqueous solution is preferably in the range of 5 seconds to 10 minutes, and more preferably in the range of 10 seconds to 3 minutes. Next, the excessively applied aqueous solution is preferably removed by a liquid drainage step. As a method of liquid drainage, there is, for example, a method of keeping the membrane surface in a vertical direction and allowing the liquid to flow down naturally. After draining, the membrane surface can also be dried to remove all or part of the water in the aqueous solution.
其后,将含有上述多官能酰卤化物的有机溶剂溶液涂布在用多官能胺水溶液被覆后的支承膜上,通过界面缩聚形成交联聚酰胺的分离功能层。进行界面缩聚的时间优选为0.1秒以上3分钟以下,更优选为0.1秒以上1分钟以下。Thereafter, an organic solvent solution containing the above polyfunctional acid halide is coated on the support film coated with a polyfunctional amine aqueous solution, and a separation functional layer of a crosslinked polyamide is formed by interfacial polycondensation. The time for interfacial polycondensation is preferably from 0.1 second to 3 minutes, and more preferably from 0.1 second to 1 minute.
有机溶剂溶液中的多官能酰卤化物的浓度没有特别限定,但如果过低,则有可能存在活性层即分离功能层的形成不充分的缺陷,如果过高,从成本方面考虑是不利的,因此优选为0.01重量%以上1.0重量%以下的程度。The concentration of the polyfunctional acid halide in the organic solvent solution is not particularly limited, but if it is too low, there may be a defect that the formation of the active layer, that is, the separation function layer is insufficient, and if it is too high, it is disadvantageous in terms of cost. Therefore, it is preferably about 0.01% by weight or more and 1.0% by weight or less.
接下来,优选通过排液工序将反应后的有机溶剂溶液除去。关于有机溶剂的除去,可使用例如将膜把持为竖直方向而使多余的有机溶剂自然流下从而除去的方法。该情况下,作为把持为竖直方向的时间,优选为1分钟以上5分钟以下的范围,更优选为1分钟以上3分钟以下的范围。若把持时间在1分钟以上,则容易获得具有目标功能的分离功能层,若在3分钟以下,则可抑制由有机溶剂的过分干燥引起的缺陷的发生,因此可抑制性能降低。Next, the organic solvent solution after the reaction is preferably removed in a liquid drainage step. Regarding the removal of the organic solvent, for example, a method of holding the film in a vertical direction and allowing the excess organic solvent to flow down naturally to remove it can be used. In this case, the time for holding in the vertical direction is preferably in the range of 1 minute to 5 minutes, and more preferably in the range of 1 minute to 3 minutes. If the holding time is more than 1 minute, it is easy to obtain a separation function layer having the target function, and if it is less than 3 minutes, the generation of defects caused by excessive drying of the organic solvent can be suppressed, so performance degradation can be suppressed.
对于通过上述方法得到的复合半透膜,进一步通过实施在25℃~90℃的范围内用热水进行1分钟~60分钟的清洗处理的工序,从而可以进一步提高复合半透膜的溶质阻止性能、透过水量。但是,在热水的温度过高的情况下,如果在热水清洗处理后急剧冷却,则耐化学药品性降低。因此,热水清洗优选在25℃~60℃的范围内进行。另外,在大于60℃且为90℃以下的高温下进行热水清洗处理的情况下,优选在热水清洗处理后进行缓慢冷却。例如,有阶段性地使其与低温热水接触从而冷却至室温的方法等。For the composite semipermeable membrane obtained by the above method, the solute barrier performance of the composite semipermeable membrane can be further improved by further implementing a process of washing with hot water in the range of 25°C to 90°C for 1 minute to 60 minutes , Through the water. However, when the temperature of the hot water is too high, the chemical resistance will decrease if it is rapidly cooled after the hot water washing treatment. Therefore, hot water washing is preferably performed in the range of 25°C to 60°C. In addition, when the hot water washing treatment is performed at a high temperature of more than 60° C. to 90° C. or lower, it is preferable to perform gradual cooling after the hot water washing treatment. For example, there is a method of cooling to room temperature by bringing it into contact with low-temperature hot water step by step.
另外,在所述进行热水清洗的工序中,也可以在热水中含有酸或醇。通过含有酸或醇,可以更容易地控制分离功能层中的氢键的形成。作为酸,可列举盐酸、硫酸、磷酸等无机酸、或柠檬酸、草酸等有机酸等。作为酸的浓度,优选调整至pH2以下,更优选为pH1以下。作为醇,可列举甲醇、乙醇、异丙醇等一元醇、乙二醇、甘油等多元醇。醇的浓度优选为10~100重量%,更优选为10~50重量%。In addition, in the step of washing with hot water, acid or alcohol may be contained in the hot water. By containing acid or alcohol, the formation of hydrogen bonds in the separation functional layer can be more easily controlled. Examples of the acid include inorganic acids such as hydrochloric acid, sulfuric acid, and phosphoric acid, organic acids such as citric acid, and oxalic acid. The acid concentration is preferably adjusted to pH 2 or lower, more preferably pH 1 or lower. Examples of the alcohol include monohydric alcohols such as methanol, ethanol, and isopropanol, and polyhydric alcohols such as ethylene glycol and glycerin. The concentration of alcohol is preferably 10 to 100% by weight, more preferably 10 to 50% by weight.
在通过将分离功能层所具有的官能团进行转化的方法来控制分离功能层的Zeta电位的情况下,接下来,使上述分离功能层与试剂(其同分离功能层中含有的未反应的官能团反应)接触。反应试剂没有特别限定,可列举例如与分离功能层中的伯氨基反应生成重氮鎓盐或其衍生物的亚硝酸及其盐、亚硝酰基化合物等的水溶液。由于亚硝酸、亚硝酰基化合物的水溶液易于产生气体而发生分解,所以,优选例如通过亚硝酸盐与酸性溶液的反应逐步生成亚硝酸。通常,亚硝酸盐与氢离子反应生成亚硝酸(HNO2),在水溶液的pH为7以下、优选为pH5以下、进一步优选为pH4以下时可高效地生成。其中,从操作的简便性出发,特别优选为在水溶液中与盐酸或硫酸反应的亚硝酸钠的水溶液。In the case of controlling the Zeta potential of the separation functional layer by converting the functional group of the separation functional layer, next, the above separation functional layer is reacted with a reagent (which reacts with the unreacted functional group contained in the separation functional layer) )touch. The reaction reagent is not particularly limited, and examples thereof include aqueous solutions of nitrous acid and its salts, nitrosyl compounds, and the like that react with primary amino groups in the separation functional layer to form diazonium salts or derivatives thereof. Since aqueous solutions of nitrous acid and nitrosyl compounds tend to generate gas and decompose, it is preferable to gradually generate nitrous acid, for example, by reacting nitrite with an acidic solution. Usually, nitrite reacts with hydrogen ions to generate nitrous acid (HNO 2 ), which can be efficiently generated when the pH of the aqueous solution is 7 or lower, preferably pH 5 or lower, more preferably pH 4 or lower. Among them, an aqueous solution of sodium nitrite reacted with hydrochloric acid or sulfuric acid in an aqueous solution is particularly preferable in view of the simplicity of handling.
与上述伯氨基反应生成重氮鎓盐或其衍生物的试剂中的亚硝酸或亚硝酸盐的浓度优选在0.01~1重量%的范围。如果为0.01重量%以上的浓度,则易于得到充分的效果,亚硝酸或亚硝酸盐浓度为1重量%以下时,溶液的操作变得容易。The concentration of nitrous acid or nitrite in the reagent that reacts with the above-mentioned primary amino group to form a diazonium salt or a derivative thereof is preferably in the range of 0.01 to 1% by weight. When the concentration is 0.01% by weight or more, a sufficient effect is easily obtained, and when the concentration of nitrous acid or nitrite is 1% by weight or less, handling of the solution becomes easy.
亚硝酸水溶液的温度优选为15℃~45℃。若溶液的温度小于15℃,则反应花费时间,若大于45℃,则亚硝酸的分解快,操作困难。The temperature of the aqueous nitrous acid solution is preferably 15°C to 45°C. If the temperature of the solution is lower than 15°C, the reaction will take time, and if it is higher than 45°C, the decomposition of nitrous acid will be rapid and the operation will be difficult.
与亚硝酸水溶液的接触时间为重氮鎓盐和/或其衍生物生成的时间即可,高浓度下可以以短时间进行处理,然而为低浓度时,则需要长时间。因此,对于上述浓度的溶液而言,接触时间优选为10分钟以内,更优选为3分钟以内。另外,对接触的方法没有特别限定,可以涂布试剂的溶液,也可以将复合半透膜浸渍在试剂的溶液中。溶解试剂的溶剂只要可溶解试剂、并且复合半透膜不被侵蚀,则可以使用任何溶剂。另外,只要不妨碍伯氨基与试剂的反应,则溶液中可以含有表面活性剂、酸性化合物、碱性化合物等。The contact time with the aqueous nitrous acid solution may be the time required for the formation of the diazonium salt and/or its derivatives, and the treatment can be performed in a short time at a high concentration, but a long time is required at a low concentration. Therefore, for the solution of the above concentration, the contact time is preferably within 10 minutes, more preferably within 3 minutes. In addition, the method of contacting is not particularly limited, and a solution of the reagent may be applied, or the composite semipermeable membrane may be immersed in the solution of the reagent. As the solvent for dissolving the reagent, any solvent can be used as long as the reagent can be dissolved and the composite semipermeable membrane is not corroded. In addition, the solution may contain a surfactant, an acidic compound, a basic compound, and the like as long as the reaction between the primary amino group and the reagent is not hindered.
通过接触而生成的重氮鎓盐或其衍生物的一部分与水反应,从而转化为酚式羟基。另外,也与形成支承膜、分离功能层的材料中的芳香环、或分离功能层中含有的化合物的芳香环反应,形成偶氮基。Part of the diazonium salt or its derivative produced by the contact reacts with water to convert into a phenolic hydroxyl group. In addition, it also reacts with an aromatic ring in a material forming a support membrane or a separation functional layer, or an aromatic ring of a compound contained in a separation functional layer to form an azo group.
接下来,可进一步使生成了重氮鎓盐或其衍生物的复合半透膜与试剂(其同重氮鎓盐或其衍生物反应)接触。此处所用的试剂可列举氯化物离子、溴化物离子、氰化物离子、碘化物离子、氟硼酸、次磷酸、亚硫酸氢钠、亚硫酸离子、芳香族胺、酚类、硫化氢、硫氰酸等。Next, the composite semipermeable membrane on which the diazonium salt or derivative thereof has been produced may be further brought into contact with a reagent that reacts with the diazonium salt or derivative thereof. Reagents used here include chloride ions, bromide ions, cyanide ions, iodide ions, fluoroboric acid, hypophosphorous acid, sodium bisulfite, sulfite ions, aromatic amines, phenols, hydrogen sulfide, and thiocyanate Acid etc.
例如,通过与氯化铜(I)、溴化铜(I)、碘化钾等反应,可以导入卤素。另外,通过与芳香族胺、酚类接触,由此发生重氮偶合反应,能够在膜面导入芳香族。需要说明的是,这些试剂可以单独使用,也可以混合复数种进行使用,也可以经复数次与不同的试剂接触。这些试剂中,引起重氮偶合反应的试剂在提高复合半透膜的脱硼率方面有效地发挥作用,因此特别优选使用。考虑这是因为,通过重氮偶合反应,用于替代氨基而导入的取代基体积更大,能够得到堵塞分离功能层内中存在的孔的效果。For example, halogen can be introduced by reacting with copper (I) chloride, copper (I) bromide, potassium iodide, or the like. In addition, by contacting with aromatic amines and phenols, a diazo coupling reaction occurs, and aromatics can be introduced into the membrane surface. It should be noted that these reagents may be used alone, or in admixture of multiple species, or may be contacted with different reagents multiple times. Among these reagents, a reagent that causes a diazo coupling reaction effectively functions to increase the boron removal rate of the composite semipermeable membrane, and therefore is particularly preferably used. This is considered to be because, through the diazo coupling reaction, the substituent introduced instead of the amino group is bulkier, and the effect of clogging the pores existing in the separation functional layer can be obtained.
作为引起重氮偶合反应的试剂,可以举出具有富电子的芳香环或杂芳环的化合物。作为具有富电子的芳香环或杂芳环的化合物,可以举出芳香族胺衍生物、杂芳香族胺衍生物、酚衍生物、羟基杂芳环衍生物。作为上述化合物的具体例子,可以举出例如苯胺、以邻位、间位、对位的任意位置关系键合于苯环的甲氧基苯胺、2个氨基以邻位、间位、对位的任意位置关系键合于苯环的苯二胺、氨基和羟基以邻位、间位、对位的任意位置关系键合于苯环的氨基苯酚、1,3,5-三氨基苯、1,2,4-三氨基苯、3,5-二氨基苯甲酸、3-氨基苄基胺、4-氨基苄基胺、对氨基苯磺酸、3,3’-二羟基联苯胺、1-氨基萘、2-氨基萘、1-氨基-2-萘酚-4-磺酸、2-氨基-8-萘酚-6-磺酸、2-氨基-5-萘酚-7-磺酸、或其N-烷基化物及其盐类、苯酚、邻位、间位或对位的甲酚、儿茶酚、间苯二酚、氢醌、间苯三酚、偏苯三酚、连苯三酚、酪氨酸、1-萘酚、2-萘酚及其盐等。Examples of the reagent causing the diazo coupling reaction include compounds having an electron-rich aromatic ring or heteroaromatic ring. Examples of the compound having an electron-rich aromatic ring or heteroaromatic ring include aromatic amine derivatives, heteroaromatic amine derivatives, phenol derivatives, and hydroxyheteroaromatic ring derivatives. Specific examples of the above compounds include, for example, aniline, methoxyaniline bonded to a benzene ring in an arbitrary positional relationship of ortho, meta, or para, and methoxyaniline in which two amino groups are positioned in an ortho, meta, or para position. Phenylenediamine bonded to the benzene ring in any positional relationship, amino phenol, 1,3,5-triaminobenzene, 1, 2,4-triaminobenzene, 3,5-diaminobenzoic acid, 3-aminobenzylamine, 4-aminobenzylamine, p-aminobenzenesulfonic acid, 3,3'-dihydroxybenzidine, 1-amino Naphthalene, 2-aminonaphthalene, 1-amino-2-naphthol-4-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-8-naphthol-6-sulfonic acid, 2-amino-5-naphthol-7-sulfonic acid, or Its N-alkylate and its salts, phenol, ortho, meta or para cresol, catechol, resorcinol, hydroquinone, phloroglucinol, pyroglucinol, pyrogallol Phenol, tyrosine, 1-naphthol, 2-naphthol and their salts, etc.
为了得到目标效果,可以对这些与重氮鎓盐或其衍生物反应的试剂的浓度和时间进行适当调节。接触温度优选为10~90℃,较优选为20~60℃。接触温度小于10℃时,反应难以进行,不能得到期望的效果,有时通过与水的反应而转化为酚式羟基,在大于90℃的高温时,有时引起聚合物的收缩,透过水量降低。另外,试剂的浓度优选为0.01~10重量%,较优选为0.05~1重量%。浓度小于0.01重量%时,与重氮鎓盐或其衍生物的反应有时需要较长时间,浓度大于10重量%时,有时难以控制与重氮鎓盐或其衍生物的反应。The concentration and time of these reagents reacting with the diazonium salt or its derivatives can be appropriately adjusted in order to obtain the desired effect. The contact temperature is preferably 10 to 90°C, more preferably 20 to 60°C. When the contact temperature is lower than 10°C, the reaction is difficult to proceed, and the desired effect cannot be obtained. Sometimes it is converted into a phenolic hydroxyl group by the reaction with water. When the temperature is higher than 90°C, the polymer sometimes shrinks and the amount of permeated water decreases. In addition, the concentration of the reagent is preferably 0.01 to 10% by weight, more preferably 0.05 to 1% by weight. When the concentration is less than 0.01% by weight, the reaction with the diazonium salt or its derivative may take a long time, and when the concentration exceeds 10% by weight, it may be difficult to control the reaction with the diazonium salt or its derivative.
接下来,对在上述分离功能层上设置亲水性化合物的工序进行说明。亲水性化合物通过将含有具有亲水性基团的化合物的溶液被覆在分离功能层上后进行加热而形成。Next, the step of providing a hydrophilic compound on the separation functional layer will be described. The hydrophilic compound is formed by coating a solution containing a compound having a hydrophilic group on the separation functional layer and then heating it.
亲水性化合物可以单独使用也可以混合数种进行使用。亲水性化合物优选以按照重量浓度计为10ppm~1%的溶液的形式进行使用。若亲水性化合物的浓度小于10ppm,则分离功能层的被覆不充分,膜污染物质的附着变得显著,因此在清洗时难以使膜污染物质解吸。若大于1%,则涂布层变厚,不能实现表面Zeta电位A(其反映膜最表面的电位)与表面Zeta电位B(认为其受水中游离的离子的影响少并反映分离功能层的电位)的电位差为±10mV以上。A hydrophilic compound may be used individually or in mixture of several types. The hydrophilic compound is preferably used in the form of a solution having a weight concentration of 10 ppm to 1%. If the concentration of the hydrophilic compound is less than 10 ppm, the coating of the separation function layer will be insufficient and the membrane fouling substances will adhere significantly, so it will be difficult to desorb the membrane fouling substances during cleaning. If it is greater than 1%, the coating layer becomes thicker, and surface zeta potential A (which reflects the potential of the outermost surface of the membrane) and surface zeta potential B (which is considered to be less affected by free ions in water and reflects the potential of the separation function layer) cannot be realized. ) The potential difference is ±10mV or more.
作为含有上述亲水性化合物的溶液中使用的溶剂,优选使用水、低级醇、卤代烃、丙酮、乙腈等。它们可以单独使用1种,也可以混合2种以上进行使用。As the solvent used in the solution containing the above-mentioned hydrophilic compound, water, lower alcohols, halogenated hydrocarbons, acetone, acetonitrile and the like are preferably used. These may be used individually by 1 type, and may mix and use 2 or more types.
根据需要可以在溶液中混合其他的化合物。例如,为了促进反应,可以添加碳酸钠、氢氧化钠、磷酸钠等碱性金属化合物,为了除去残存的与水为非混溶性的溶剂、游离多官能酰卤化物与胺化合物的反应生成物,也优选添加十二烷基硫酸钠、苯磺酸钠等表面活性剂。Other compounds can be mixed in the solution as needed. For example, in order to promote the reaction, basic metal compounds such as sodium carbonate, sodium hydroxide, and sodium phosphate can be added, and in order to remove the remaining solvent that is immiscible with water, the reaction product of free polyfunctional acid halides and amine compounds, It is also preferable to add surfactants such as sodium lauryl sulfate and sodium benzenesulfonate.
将亲水性化合物交联的方法没有特别限定,但优选进行热交联。作为进行热交联时的加热方法,例如可以使用吹热风的方法。此时的加热温度优选在30~150℃的范围内,较优选在30~130℃的范围内,更优选在60~100℃的范围内。若加热温度低于30℃,则不能进行充分的加热,存在交联反应速度降低的倾向,若超过150℃,则副反应变得易于进行。另外,如果超过150℃进行热交联,则有时复合半透膜的热收缩变大,存在透过水量变低的倾向。The method of crosslinking the hydrophilic compound is not particularly limited, but thermal crosslinking is preferred. As a heating method at the time of thermal crosslinking, the method of blowing hot air can be used, for example. The heating temperature at this time is preferably in the range of 30 to 150°C, more preferably in the range of 30 to 130°C, and more preferably in the range of 60 to 100°C. When the heating temperature is lower than 30°C, sufficient heating cannot be performed, and the crosslinking reaction rate tends to decrease, and when it exceeds 150°C, side reactions tend to proceed. In addition, when thermal crosslinking is performed at a temperature exceeding 150° C., the thermal shrinkage of the composite semipermeable membrane may increase, and the amount of permeated water tends to decrease.
亲水性化合物的交联中优选使用交联剂。作为交联剂,例如可以举出前述的酸或碱、乙二醛或戊二醛等1分子中具有至少2个官能团的醛等。特别优选的是,交联聚合物的原料为聚乙烯醇,交联剂为戊二醛,交联聚合物含有聚乙烯醇和戊二醛的反应物。A crosslinking agent is preferably used for crosslinking of the hydrophilic compound. As a crosslinking agent, the aldehyde etc. which have at least 2 functional groups in 1 molecule, such as the said acid or base, glyoxal, or glutaraldehyde, etc. are mentioned, for example. Particularly preferably, the raw material of the cross-linked polymer is polyvinyl alcohol, the cross-linking agent is glutaraldehyde, and the cross-linked polymer contains a reactant of polyvinyl alcohol and glutaraldehyde.
作为交联剂的添加浓度,优选在0.01~5.0重量%的范围内,较优选在0.01~1.0重量%的范围内,进一步优选在0.01~0.5重量%的范围内。若浓度低于0.01重量%,则交联密度变低,交联聚合物的水不溶性易于变得不充分,若大于5.0重量%,则交联密度变高,存在透过水量变低的倾向,并且交联反应速度变快,易于发生凝胶化,存在难以均匀涂布的倾向。交联反应的反应时间优选为10秒~3分钟。若少于10秒,则有时反应不充分进行,若超过3分钟,则难以调整至本发明的Zeta电位。The added concentration of the crosslinking agent is preferably within a range of 0.01 to 5.0% by weight, more preferably within a range of 0.01 to 1.0% by weight, and even more preferably within a range of 0.01 to 0.5% by weight. If the concentration is lower than 0.01% by weight, the crosslinking density becomes low, and the water insolubility of the crosslinked polymer tends to become insufficient; Furthermore, the speed of the crosslinking reaction becomes faster, gelation tends to occur, and uniform coating tends to be difficult. The reaction time of the crosslinking reaction is preferably 10 seconds to 3 minutes. If it is less than 10 seconds, the reaction may not proceed sufficiently, and if it exceeds 3 minutes, it may be difficult to adjust to the zeta potential of the present invention.
此处,优选的是,本发明的复合半透膜即使被交联聚合物被覆,在被覆前后透过水量也不易降低。即,将使用分离功能层的表面被交联聚合物被覆前的复合半透膜、在1.55MPa的压力条件下对25℃、pH6.5、NaCl浓度为2,000mg/l的水溶液过滤1小时时的透过水量设为F1,将分离功能层的表面被交联聚合物被覆后的透过水量设为F2时,F2/F1的值优选为0.80以上。更优选为0.90以上。通过使用这样的复合半透膜,可以在不显著降低膜的透过水量的情况下,赋予膜表面以对膜污染物质的高解吸性。Here, even if the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention is coated with a crosslinked polymer, it is preferable that the amount of permeated water hardly decrease before and after coating. That is, when a composite semipermeable membrane before the surface of the separation functional layer is coated with a cross-linked polymer is used to filter an aqueous solution of 25°C, pH 6.5, and a NaCl concentration of 2,000 mg/l for 1 hour under a pressure of 1.55 MPa When the amount of water permeated is F1, and the amount of water permeated after the surface of the separation functional layer is coated with the crosslinked polymer is F2, the value of F2/F1 is preferably 0.80 or more. More preferably, it is 0.90 or more. By using such a composite semipermeable membrane, it is possible to provide the surface of the membrane with high desorption properties for membrane fouling substances without significantly reducing the permeated water amount of the membrane.
3.复合半透膜的利用3. Utilization of composite semipermeable membrane
本发明的复合半透膜与塑料网等原水流路材料、特里科经编织物(tricot)等透过水流路材料、以及根据需要用于提高耐压性的膜一起卷绕在穿设有多个孔的筒状集水管的周围,可适合用作螺旋型的复合半透膜元件。此外,也可以将该元件串联或并联并收纳于压力容器中而制成复合半透膜组件。The composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention is wound together with a raw water flow path material such as plastic mesh, a permeated water flow path material such as tricot, and a film for improving pressure resistance if necessary. The surrounding of the cylindrical water collecting pipe with many holes can be suitably used as a spiral composite semi-permeable membrane element. In addition, the elements can also be connected in series or in parallel and accommodated in a pressure vessel to form a composite semipermeable membrane module.
另外,上述复合半透膜、或其元件、组件可以与向它们供给原水的泵、对该原水进行前处理的装置等组合,从而构成流体分离装置。通过使用该分离装置,可以将原水分离为饮用水等透过水和没有透过膜的浓缩水,从而得到符合目的的水。In addition, the above-mentioned composite semipermeable membrane, or its elements and modules can be combined with a pump for supplying raw water to them, a device for pre-treating the raw water, etc., to constitute a fluid separation device. By using this separator, raw water can be separated into permeated water such as drinking water and concentrated water that does not permeate the membrane, thereby obtaining water that meets the purpose.
通过使用本发明的复合半透膜,例如在操作压力为0.1~3MPa的范围内、较优选0.1~1.5MPa的范围内这样的低压区域中,能够维持高透过水量地使用复合半透膜、流体分离元件。为了能够降低操作压力,可以减小所用的泵等的容量,抑制耗电,可以实现淡化的低成本。若操作压力低于0.1MPa,则存在透过水量减少的倾向,若大于3MPa,则泵等的耗电增加,并且容易引起由结垢导致的膜的堵塞。By using the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention, for example, the operating pressure is in the range of 0.1 to 3 MPa, more preferably in such a low-pressure region in the range of 0.1 to 1.5 MPa, the composite semipermeable membrane can be used to maintain a high permeable water amount, Fluid separation element. In order to be able to reduce the operating pressure, the capacity of the pump etc. used can be reduced, power consumption can be suppressed, and the cost of desalination can be realized. If the operating pressure is lower than 0.1 MPa, the amount of permeated water tends to decrease, and if it exceeds 3 MPa, the power consumption of pumps and the like increases, and membrane clogging due to fouling tends to occur.
对于本发明的复合半透膜而言,优选的是,使用pH6.5、浓度为2,000mg/l的氯化钠水溶液、在25℃、操作压力1.0MPa的条件下过滤1小时时的透过水量为0.5~3m3/m2/d。这样的复合半透膜例如可以通过适当选择前述的制造方法进行制造。通过使水的透过量为0.5~3m3/m2/d的范围,能够适度抑制结垢的发生,稳定地进行淡化。For the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention, it is preferable to use a sodium chloride aqueous solution with a pH of 6.5 and a concentration of 2,000 mg/l to filter for 1 hour at 25°C and an operating pressure of 1.0 MPa. The water volume is 0.5~3m 3 /m 2 /d. Such a composite semipermeable membrane can be produced, for example, by appropriately selecting the aforementioned production method. By setting the permeation rate of water in the range of 0.5 to 3 m 3 /m 2 /d, the occurrence of scaling can be moderately suppressed and desalination can be stably performed.
用本发明的复合半透膜处理的污水中,有时包含利用生物处理完全不被分解的表面活性剂等难生物分解性有机物。若利用现有的复合半透膜进行处理,则表面活性剂吸附在膜表面,透过水量降低。但是,本发明的复合半透膜由于具有高透过水量和对膜污染物质的高的解吸性,所以能够呈现稳定的性能。Sewage treated with the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention may contain hardly biodegradable organic substances such as surfactants that are not decomposed at all by biological treatment. If the existing composite semipermeable membrane is used for treatment, the surfactant is adsorbed on the surface of the membrane, and the amount of permeated water decreases. However, the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention can exhibit stable performance due to its high water permeation and high desorption of membrane fouling substances.
此处,本发明的复合半透膜对膜污染物质的解吸性高。即,于25℃,将以1.55MPa的压力对pH6.5、NaCl浓度为2,000mg/l的水溶液过滤1小时时的透过水量设为F3,接着在上述水溶液中加入聚氧乙烯(10)辛基苯基醚且使其浓度成为100mg/l,将对所得的溶液过滤1小时后用NaCl浓度为500mg/l的水溶液清洗1小时时的透过水量设为F4时,F4/F3的值优选为0.85以上。更优选为0.90以上。通过使用这样的复合半透膜,即使在膜的表面发生结垢等时,通过用NaCl浓度为500mg/l以上的水溶液进行清洗,也能够得到抑制膜与污染物质的相互作用的效果,因此能够容易地解吸。因此,即使用于污水的高度处理等中,也能长期稳定地工作。Here, the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention has high desorption properties for membrane fouling substances. That is, at 25°C, the amount of permeated water when an aqueous solution with a pH of 6.5 and a NaCl concentration of 2,000 mg/l is filtered at a pressure of 1.55 MPa for 1 hour is set as F3, and then polyoxyethylene (10) is added to the aqueous solution. The value of F4/F3 when the concentration of octylphenyl ether is 100 mg/l, and the permeated water when the obtained solution is filtered for 1 hour and then washed with an aqueous solution having a NaCl concentration of 500 mg/l for 1 hour is F4 Preferably it is 0.85 or more. More preferably, it is 0.90 or more. By using such a composite semipermeable membrane, even when fouling or the like occurs on the surface of the membrane, the effect of inhibiting the interaction between the membrane and the pollutant can be obtained by washing with an aqueous solution having a NaCl concentration of 500 mg/l or more. Easily desorbs. Therefore, it can work stably for a long time even if it is used for high-level treatment of sewage.
需要说明的是,在本发明的复合半透膜的分离功能层的表面被交联聚合物被覆的情况下,上述透过水量F3与前述的透过水量F2相同。It should be noted that, when the surface of the separation function layer of the composite semipermeable membrane of the present invention is coated with a crosslinked polymer, the above-mentioned permeated water amount F3 is the same as the aforementioned permeated water amount F2.

About the thickness of the base material and the thickness of the composite semipermeable membrane, 20 points were measured in each width direction, and the average value was calculated.
多孔性支承层厚度(μm)=支承膜厚度(μm)-基材厚度(μm)Porous support layer thickness (μm) = support film thickness (μm) - substrate thickness (μm)
(Zeta电位)(Zeta potential)
使用超纯水清洗复合半透膜,将其以复合半透膜的分离功能层面与监测粒子溶液接触的方式设置在平板试样用槽中,利用大塚电子株式会社制电泳光散射光度计(ELS-8000)进行测定。作为监测粒子溶液,使用在分别将浓度调整为pH6、pH10或pH3的NaCl水溶液中分散聚苯乙烯胶乳的监测粒子所得的测定液。The composite semipermeable membrane was cleaned with ultrapure water, and it was set in the flat sample tank in such a way that the separation function layer of the composite semipermeable membrane was in contact with the monitoring particle solution, and the electrophoretic light scattering photometer (ELS -8000) for measurement. As the monitor particle solution, a measurement solution in which monitor particles of polystyrene latex were dispersed in NaCl aqueous solution adjusted to pH 6, pH 10, or pH 3 was used.
