Abstract

Hollow fiber composite nanofiltration (NF) membranes were prepared by interfacial polymerization method, with polysulfone (PSF) hollow fiber ultrafiltration membrane as base membrane, piperazine (PIP) as the aqueous phase monomer and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) as the organic phase monomer. The effects of aqueous phase composition on composite NF were discussed. The experimental results show that the optimum compositions in aqueous phase: 1wt% PIP, 0.05wt% MPDA, 1wt% TEA, 3wt% sulfamic acid. The best rejection to MgSO4 was 94.7%, and water flux was 66.1L•m-2•h-1.
