Abstract

PURPOSE:To inexpensively and permanently hydrophilize a polysulfone resin hollow fiber membrane by a method wherein a polysulfone resin hollow fiber membrane is immersed in a soln. containing a predetermined wt.% of an ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer and the impregnated membrane is dried to hold a definite amt. of the copolymer on a part of the surfaces of pores. CONSTITUTION:A polysulfone resin hollow fiber membrane is immersed in a soln. containing 0.1-2wt.% of an ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer and the impregnated membrane is dried to hold 0.1-5wt.% of the ethylene/vinyl alcohol copolymer on the surfaces of pores. This hydrophilized polysulfone resin hollow fiber membrane has excellent hydrophilicity not lost even during long-term use and is not lowered in water permeability.

2. Description of the Related Art Hollow fiber membranes made of polysulfone resin are used for various purposes because of their excellent heat resistance and chemical resistance. However, since the polysulfone-based resin film is hydrophobic, the film is easily soiled and water permeability is apt to decrease.
As a method for hydrophilizing a polysulfone-based resin film, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. Sho 5 is used.
In JP-A-3-13679 and JP-A-59-196322, sulfonic acid groups are introduced, and in JP-A-57-174104, polyethyleneimine polymers are introduced or grafted into the polymer main chain to make them hydrophilic. These hydrophilic polysulfone membranes are soluble in water,
Since the manufacturing method is complicated, there are problems such as being expensive and impractical.

In order to solve the above-mentioned problems, the present inventors have made diligent studies and as a result, have found that an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is provided on at least a part of the pore surface of a polysulfone-based resin hollow fiber membrane. The present invention has been completed by finding out that it is sufficient to retain a certain amount. That is, the present invention resides in a hydrophilized polysulfone-based resin hollow fiber membrane in which 0.1 to 5% by weight of ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer is retained on the surface of pores of the polysulfone-based resin hollow fiber membrane,
Further, it is a method for producing a hydrophilized polysulfone resin hollow fiber membrane, which comprises immersing the polysulfone resin hollow fiber membrane in a 0.1-2% by weight solution of an ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer and then drying. .

The present invention will be described below. As the polysulfone-based resin, a polysulfone resin, a polyethersulfone resin, or a mixture of these resins and another resin can be used. Further, the ethylene-vinyl alcohol copolymer may be any type of copolymer such as random, block and graft, but the ethylene content of the polymer is preferably in the range of 20 to 50 mol%. If the ethylene content is less than 20 mol%, the adhesion to the polysulfone resin is poor, and if it exceeds 50 mol%, the hydrophilicity is lost, which is not preferable. The retention amount of the ethylene vinyl-alcohol copolymer is preferably 0.1 to 5% by weight based on the weight of the film.
If it is less than 0.1% by weight, the effect of hydrophilicity is small, and if it exceeds 5% by weight, the water permeability of the membrane is lowered.
