Manufacturing of Hollow Fiber Membrane

Venkatesh D. Vandekar

Abstract: This article shows information collected on manufacturing of hollow fibre membranes. The polymer liquid used can be polysulphone (PSF), polyethersulphone (PES), polyacrylonitrile (PAN), polyvinyl alcohol (like PVC) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) any one of them is also be used or they can be used in different ratios. After manufacturing of membranes, potting is done on them. After potting the membranes are sealed in the module/cartridge. These modules/cartridge are then used in various industries.
