低下する傾向があった。Of course, this separation membrane support needs to be able to permeate liquid more easily than the separation membrane itself, and currently polyester nonwoven fabric is used as this support, and dry and wet methods are available for manufacturing this nonwoven fabric. The surface properties, density, etc. are adjusted by heat rolling. As a separation membrane support, thinner is better as long as it has the necessary characteristics due to the effective volume and price at the time of modularization.
In the case of dry method, the appropriate basis weight for the support is 50 to 150 g/m
2. Thin materials with a thickness of about 50 to 200 μm have large variations in thickness, air permeability (water permeability can be evaluated by air permeability), etc. Normally, separation membranes are made from a polymeric substance solution (
Films are formed by casting a cast liquid (hereinafter referred to as cast liquid) onto a support, but in the case of a dry method, the thickness of the deposited film is unstable due to the above-mentioned variations in the support, and the cast liquid partially passes through the support. This also causes the problem of see-through. On the other hand, wet-processed nonwoven fabrics are generally made by mixing the main fibers with binder fibers with a slightly lower melting point and then heat rolling to adjust the surface properties, density, strength, etc., and the uniformity of thickness, air permeability, etc. is determined by the support of a separation membrane. However, since a sufficient surface condition is not obtained, and short fibers with a length of several tens of millimeters or less are used as raw materials, there is a lot of fluffing. However, the surface density increases and the adhered film becomes easy to peel off, and if the processing strength is weakened to the extent that the film does not peel off, the raising cannot be suppressed, causing defects in the film, and it is impossible to prevent the casting liquid from bleeding through. There was a problem. In addition, if the fibers used are made thicker and the processing strength is increased, the napping is suppressed and the opening and surface roughness are large, so the adhesion of the film is good, but depending on the processing conditions, the casting liquid may bleed through, and even the same tsubo If the number of sheets and fibers were the same, the absolute number of fibers would decrease and the uniformity of the sheet would tend to decrease.

This is a separation membrane support made of a two-layer nonwoven fabric with both layers thermally bonded. Each layer can be made into paper separately and integrated by hot roll processing, or the paper itself can be made into multi-layer paper using a circular mesh paper machine or the like and then hot roll processed. may be made into paper.

全体の通水抵抗を減少することも可能である。Since the separation membrane support of the present invention uses thick fibers for the surface layer 2 and thin fibers for the back layer 3 as described above, when manufacturing it by a wet method, a uniform sheet is made using a paper machine and the second As shown in FIGS. 3 and 3, the outer surface of the surface layer 2 is The back layer 3 can be made to have a coarse structure that suppresses fluffing and improves the adhesion of the separation membrane due to the anchoring effect, and at the same time, the back layer 3 can have a dense structure that cannot be penetrated by the casting liquid. Depending on the properties of the liquid, the thickness and opening of the surface layer 2 and the back layer 3 can be adjusted so that the casting liquid permeates into the support appropriately. Also, basically, based on the above idea, as shown in Figure 4, a sandwich structure is used in which a thin fiber layer 3 is sandwiched between thick fiber layers 2, 2, and the ratio of the thin fiber layer, which exhibits relatively high water flow resistance, is reduced. By doing so, it is also possible to reduce the water flow resistance of the entire support.

It has the effect of being able to be produced at a low cost.

However, if a sheet with a basis weight of about 100 g/rn2 is to be manufactured with a multilayer structure, the non-uniformity of the sheet described at the beginning becomes even more severe, and a dry manufacturing method has not been established at present.

List of attached documents Corrected description 1 Corrected description Title of the invention Separation membrane support Claims Separation membrane support using thick fibers and a surface layer with large surface roughness and thin fibers with a wide opening A separation membrane support body comprising a nonwoven fabric having a multilayer structure based on a double structure with a back layer having a small and φ non-dense structure. DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION The present invention relates to a sheet-like support for supporting separation membranes such as reverse osmosis membranes and ultrafiltration membranes. These membranes place a solution on one side and apply mechanical pressure to the solution to separate it into a concentrated solution and a permeate with a dilute solute concentration. Considering the workability of membrane modularization, M membrane is used on a permeable sheet-like support. Of course, this separation membrane support needs to be able to permeate liquid more easily than the separation membrane itself. Currently, polyester nonwoven fabric is used as this support, and there are two methods for manufacturing this nonwoven fabric: dry and wet. The surface properties, density, etc. are adjusted by heat rolling. As a separation membrane support, thinner is better as long as it has the necessary characteristics due to the effective volume and price at the time of modularization.
In the case of dry type, the appropriate basis weight as a support stop is 50 to 150 g/m
2. For thin objects with a thickness of about 5.0 to 200μ, the thickness
There are large variations in air permeability (water permeability can be evaluated based on air permeability). Separation membranes are usually formed by casting a membrane material polymeric substance solution (hereinafter referred to as casting liquid) onto a support, but in the dry method, the thickness of the deposited membrane remains stable due to the aforementioned variations in the support. Otherwise, the casting liquid may partially pass through the support and cause strike-through. On the other hand, wet-processed nonwoven fabrics are generally made by mixing the main fibers with binder fibers with a slightly lower melting point and then heat rolling to adjust the surface properties, density, strength, etc., and the uniformity of thickness, air permeability, etc. is determined separately. Although it is sufficient as a membrane support, it is not possible to obtain a sufficient surface condition. In other words, short fibers with a length of several tens of mm or less are used as raw materials, so there is a lot of fluffing. However, the surface density increases and the adhered film becomes easy to peel off, and if the processing strength is weakened to the extent that the film does not peel off, the nap cannot be suppressed, causing defects in the film, and it is impossible to prevent the casting liquid from bleeding through. There were other difficulties. In addition, if the fibers used are made thicker and the processing strength is increased, the napping is suppressed and the opening and surface roughness are large, so the adhesion of the film is good, but depending on the processing conditions, the casting liquid may bleed through, and even the same tsubo If the number of sheets and fibers were the same, the absolute number of fibers would decrease and the uniformity of the sheet would tend to decrease. The present invention eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks and provides a separation membrane support with a uniform layer, no napping, and good adhesion to the separation membrane. As shown in the figure, the surface layer 2, on which the separation membrane 1 is to be attached, is made of thick fibers and has a large opening and surface roughness, and the back layer 3 is made of thin fibers and is a layer with a small opening of θ. This is a separation membrane support made of a two-layer nonwoven fabric with both layers thermally bonded. Each layer can be made separately and integrated by hot roll processing, or the paper itself can be made into multi-layer paper using a circular mesh paper machine or the like and then hot roll processed. Furthermore, sheets with density gradients can be made into paper using well-known methods. You may. If polyester is used for the fiber, layer 2 has a thickness of 2.
~10 denier, 3-50 mm long fibers; layer 3 contains main fibers 3, 0.05-2 denier in thickness, 3-50 mm long
Layer 21 Layer 3 The standard thickness is 2:878:2, and in addition to polyester, heat-fusible fibers such as polyamide, polyimide, polyvinyl chloride, and polyolefin (polypropylene, polyethylene) can also be used. Since the separation membrane support of the present invention uses thick fibers for the surface layer 2 and thin fibers for the back layer 3 as described above, when manufacturing it by a wet method, a uniform sheet is made using a paper machine and the second As shown in FIGS. 3 and 3, the outer surface of the surface layer 2 is The back layer 3 can be made to have a coarse structure that suppresses fluffing and improves the adhesion of the separation membrane due to the anchoring effect, and at the same time, the back layer 3 can have a dense structure that cannot be penetrated by the casting liquid. Depending on the properties, the thickness and opening of the surface layer 2 and the back layer 3 can be adjusted so that the casting liquid appropriately permeates into the support. Also, basically, based on the above idea, as shown in Figure 4, a sandwich structure is used in which a thin fiber layer 3 is sandwiched between thick fiber layers 2, 2, and the ratio of the thin fiber layer, which exhibits relatively high water flow resistance, is reduced. By doing so, it is also possible to reduce the water flow resistance of the entire support. By adopting a two-layer or multi-layer structure like this, even if a defect occurs in one layer, it can be compensated for by other layers, making it easy to maintain the overall quality at all times.Furthermore, it is easy to use with conventional wet method nonwoven fabric manufacturing equipment. It has the effect of being able to be produced at a low cost. Comparative examples 1 and 2 of conventional separation membrane supports made of nonwoven fabric are shown below.
Comparison data between the membrane support and the double layer separation membrane support of the present invention are shown on the next page. Although the case where the separation membrane support of the present invention is manufactured by a wet method has been described above, it is clear that the same effect can be obtained by a dry method as long as the same structure is obtained. However, if a sheet with a basis weight of about 100 g/m2 is to be manufactured with a multilayer structure, the non-uniformity of the sheet described at the beginning becomes even more severe, and a dry manufacturing method has not been established at present. Brief explanatory drawings of the drawings show examples of the present invention, and FIG. 1 is a partially enlarged sectional explanatory drawing showing a separation membrane coated on a separation membrane support, and FIGS. 2 and 3.
