Abstract:
The porous support membrane is critical for the fabrication of the high-performance reverse osmosis composite membranes. A series of flat membranes were prepared by immersion precipitation method using polysulfone (PSf) as the membrane material, N,N-dimethylacetamide (DMAc) as the solvent, -butyrolactone (GBL) as the second solvent, isopropyl alcohol (IPA) as the non-solvent additive, and water as the coagulation agent. The effects of DMAc/GBL mass ratio and approaching ratio  on the viscosity of the casting solution, the membrane structure and performance were discussed herein. The results showed that as the DMAc/GBL mass ratio decreased, the viscosity of the casting solution increased, the polysulfone flat membrane changed from finger-like structure to sponge-like structure, the membrane surface pore size decreased, and the pore size distribution became narrow. As the value of  increased, the viscosity of the casting solution increased, the formation of finger-like pores was suppressed, and membranes gradually changed to sponge-like pore structure, and the pore size distribution became wide
