Both dry- and wet-process were employed for preparing membrane of ethylene-vinylalcohol copolymer (EVAL) for blood dialysis.
Asymmetric and symmetric, dense or porous membranes were prepared by the dry-process. The relationship between the structure of membranes and the experimental variables is explained by using a solubility curve model. This model predicts the membrane structure successfully under various conditions, including the change of temperature of the environment, the solvent system and the temperature of polymer solution. For wet-processes, the casting solutions were coagulated in a precipitation bath (water). Three different structures were obtained: finger type, sponge type and particle-bonded type. The cloud point experiment and the polymer segment motion help to understand and control the membrane structure. Some properties of the EVAL membrane for blood dialysis are shown. It is comparable with or better than the commercialized one. This study may prove useful in determing the controlling parameters for the preparation of membranes from other polymers.
