Abstract

Sol-gel methods offer many advantages over conventional slip-casting, including the ability to produce ceramic membranes. They are purer, more homogeneous, more reactive and contain a wider variety of compositions. We produced ormosil sol using sol-gel process under various molecular weight of polymer species[polyethylene glycol(PEG)] in total system [Tetraethyl ortho silicate(TEOS)-polyethylene glycol(PEG)]. The properties of as-prepared ormosil sol such as viscosity and gelation time are characterized. Also, the ceramic membrane was prepared by dip-coating with synthetic sol and its microstructure was observed by scanning electron microscopy. The permeability and rejection efficiency of membrane for oil/water emulsion were evaluated as cross­flow apparatus. The ormosil sol coated membrane was easily formed by steric effect of polymer and it improved flux efficiency because infiltration into porous support decreased. Its flux efficiency was elevated about $200\;l/m^2h$ compared with colloidal sol coated membrane at point of five minutes from starting test.

Sol-gel 공정에 의해 제조된 세라믹 분리 막은 보다 순수한 재료를 이용할 수 있고, 균일성을 향상시킬 수 있을 뿐 아니라 다양한 복합체도 넓은 범위에서 반응을 유도할 수 있다는 장점을 가지고 있어 많은 연구가 진행되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 sc,1-gel 공정을 이용하여 Tetraethyl ortho-silicate(TEOS)-Polyethylene glycol(PEG)계 organically modified silicate(ORMOSt)sol을 합성하였다. Polymer분자량을 변수로 하여 sol 합성 후 특성 변화를 점도와 겔화 시간을 측정함으로써 관찰하였다. 합성된 sol을 다공성 담체 위에 dip-coating법을 이용하여 막을 제조하였으며, SEM관찰을 통해 분리 막의 미세구조를 확인하였다. 합성 복합 막의 Oil/water 에멀젼의 처리효율을 cross-flow 타입의 막 분리 장치를 이용하여 확인하였다. Ormosilsol은 유기물의 분자량이 증가될수록 보다 쉽게 코팅 층을 형성 시킬 수 있었고, 담체를 용매에 담지 시켜 코팅 물질이 담체의 기공내로 침투될 때의 모세관력을 줄임으로써 크랙이 방지된 얇은 막을 얻을 수 있었다. Colloidal sol 코팅 막에 비해 ormosil sol코팅 막은 분리효율 뿐 아니라 flux 특설이 시험 5분경과 시점에서 약 $200\;l/m^2h$이상 향상되었음을 확인 할 수 있었다.
