Enhancing antibacterial performances of PVDF hollow fibers by embedding Ag-loaded zeolites on the membrane outer layer via co-extruding technique
Source abstract
Abstract
Ag-loaded zeolites were synthesized and embedded into the outer layer of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) dual-layer hollow fiber membrane (D) using a dry-jet wet-spinning co-extruding technique. The distribution of the Ag-loaded zeolites in the outer layer was confirmed by field emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) and energy-dispersive X-ray spectroscopy (EDX). It was found that the D contained only 54% of the amount of Ag-loaded zeolites that were distributed throughout the cross section of PVDF single-layer hollow fiber membrane (S), as calculated by thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). However, D showed excellent antibacterial efficiency and resistance to bacterial adhesion because of the higher concentration of Ag+ in the outer layer of the membrane. The surface morphologies, pure water flux, mean pore size, pore size distribution, and thermal stability of both PVDF membranes were also investigated. (C) 2014 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
