Hereinafter, the present invention will be described.

The present invention relates to a first nanofiber layer formed by electrospinning a hydrophilic polymer solution; A second nanofiber layer laminated by electrospinning a meta-aramid solution on the first nanofiber layer; And a third nanofiber layer formed by electrospinning a hydrophilic polymer solution on the second nanofiber layer.

At this time, the nanomembrane is manufactured using an electrospinning device.

Meanwhile, the hydrophilic polymer used in the present invention is preferably one selected from the group consisting of polyethersulfone, polyacrylonitrile, polyvinyl alcohol, meta-aramid, and hydrophilic polyurethane, but is not limited thereto.

Polyethersulfone (PES), which is one of the hydrophilic polymers used in the present invention, is an amber transparent, amorphous resin having the following repeating unit and is generally produced by condensation polymerization of dichlorodiphenylsulfone .

[Reaction Scheme 3]

Polyethersulfone is a super heat resistant engineering plastic developed by ICI in the UK. It is a highly heat resistant polymer among thermoplastic plastics. Since the polyethersulfone is amorphous, the physical properties of the polyether sulfone are not lowered by temperature rise, and the temperature dependency of the flexural modulus is small, so that it hardly changes at -100 to 200 캜. The load-strain temperature is 200 to 220 占 폚, and the glass transition temperature is 225 占 폚. In addition, the creep resistance up to 180 占 폚 is the most excellent among the thermoplastic resins, and has the characteristic of being resistant to hot water and steam at 150 to 160 占 폚.

Due to such characteristics, polyethersulfone is used in optical disks, magnetic disks, electric and electronic fields, hydrothermal fields, automobile fields, and heat resistant paints.

Examples of the solvent usable with the polyethersulfone include acetone, tetrahydrofuran, methylene chloride, chloroform, dimethylformamide (DMF), dimethylacetamide (DMAc), N- N-methyl pyrrolidone (NMP), cyclohexane, water, or a mixture thereof, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

Polyacrylonitrile, which is one of the hydrophilic polymers used in the present invention, refers to a polymer of acrylonitrile (CH2 = CHCN) as polyacrylonitrile (PAN).

[Reaction Scheme 2]

Here, the polyacrylonitrile resin is a copolymer made from a mixture of acrylonitrile and a monomer constituting the majority. Frequently used monomers include butadiene styrene vinylidene chloride or other vinyl compounds. The acrylic fiber contains at least 85% acrylonitrile, and the mode acrylic contains 35 to 85% acrylonitrile. When other monomers are included, the fiber has the property of increasing the affinity to the dye. More specifically, in the production of an acrylonitrile-based copolymer and spinning solution, in the case of producing an acrylonitrile-based copolymer, there is little contamination of nozzles in the course of manufacturing ultrafine fibers by electrospinning, Thereby increasing the solubility in the solvent and imparting better mechanical properties. In addition, polyacrylonitrile has a softening point of 300 ° C or more and is excellent in heat resistance.

The degree of polymerization of the polyacrylonitrile is preferably 1,000 to 1,000,000, and more preferably 2,000 to 1,000,000.

The polyacrylonitrile is preferably used within a range that satisfies the usage amount of the acrylonitrile monomer, the hydrophobic monomer and the hydrophilic monomer. When the polymer is polymerized, the weight% of the acrylonitrile monomer is too low to be electrospun when the weight% of the hydrophilic monomer and the weight% of the hydrophobic monomer are 3: 4 and the total monomer is less than 60, It is difficult to form a stable jet (JET) at the time of electrospinning as well as to cause contamination of the nozzle. If the ratio is more than 99, the spinning viscosity is too high to spin, and even if an additive capable of lowering the viscosity is added, the diameter of the microfine fibers becomes too large and the productivity of electrospray is too low to achieve the object of the present invention.

In addition, as much amount of comonomer is added to the acrylic polymer, the amount of the crosslinking agent must be increased so that the stability of electrospinning can be secured and deterioration of the mechanical properties of the nanofiber can be prevented.

The hydrophobic monomer may be an ethylene-based compound such as methacrylate, ethyl acrylate, methyl methacrylate, ethyl methacrylate, butyl methacrylate, vinyl acetate, vinyl pyrrolidone, vinylidene chloride or vinyl chloride, It is preferable to use at least one selected.

Wherein the hydrophilic monomer is selected from the group consisting of acrylic acid, allyl alcohol, methallyl alcohol, hydroxyethyl acrylate, hydroxyethyl methacrylate, hydroxypropyl acrylate, butanediol monoacrylate, dimethylaminoethyl acrylate, butent ricarboxylic acid, vinyl It is preferable to use at least one selected from ethylene-based compounds such as sulfonic acid, allylsulfonic acid, methallylsulfonic acid, and para-styrenesulfonic acid and polyvalent acids or derivatives thereof.

As the initiator to be used for preparing the acrylonitrile-based polymer, an azo-based compound or a sulfate compound may be used, but it is generally preferable to use a radical initiator used for the oxidation-reduction reaction.

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), which is one of the hydrophilic polymers used in the present invention, is a biocompatible hydrophilic polymer material and can be used as a drug delivery system or a membrane because of its excellent physical and mechanical properties and chemical resistance. have.

The polyvinyl alcohol is excellent in biocompatibility, easy to produce, swellable and suitable for absorbing exudate of wounds, and has -OH group, so that it is easy to modify. The polyvinyl alcohol is currently being applied to tissue regeneration of cartilage, breast enlargement, and the like in the form of hydrogel, and it is composed of C, H, and O. Therefore, when the polymer is biodegraded, the degradation products are not harmful to the human body and are less toxic. In addition, the nanofiber-type membrane by electrospinning is advantageous for maintaining angiogenesis, such as angiogenesis, and is biocompatible because it has morphologically similar structure to extracellular matrix.

In addition, a polyamide which is one of the hydrophilic polymers used in the present invention will be described.

Polyamide refers to a generic term for a polymer linked by an amide bond (-CONH-), which can be obtained by condensation polymerization of a diamine and a dicarboxylic acid. Polaramide is characterized by the amide bond in the molecular structure, and the physical properties vary depending on the ratio of amide groups. For example, when the ratio of amide groups in the molecule is increased, specific gravity, melting point, absorbency, rigidity and the like are increased.

In addition, polyamide is a material used in a wide range of fields such as clothing, tire cord, carpet, rope, computer ribbon, parachute, plastic and adhesive due to its excellent resistance to corrosion, abrasion resistance, chemical resistance and insulation.

Generally, polyamides are classified into aromatic polyamides and aliphatic polyamides. Representative aliphatic polyamides include nylon. Nylon is originally a trademark of DuPont, Inc., but is now used as a generic name.

Nylon is a hygroscopic polymer and is sensitive to temperature. Representative nylons include nylon 6, nylon 66, and nylon 46.

First, nylon 6 is characterized by excellent heat resistance, moldability and chemical resistance, and is produced by ring-opening polymerization of ε-caprolactam in order to produce it. Nylon 6 means that caprolactam has 6 carbon atoms.

[Reaction Scheme 4]

On the other hand, nylon 66 is generally similar in properties to nylon 6, but is superior in heat resistance to nylon 6 and superior in self-extinguishing and abrasion resistance. Nylon 66 is prepared by dehydration condensation polymerization of hexamethylenediamine and adipic acid.

[Reaction Scheme 5]

Nylon 46 is also excellent in heat resistance, mechanical properties and impact resistance, and has a high processing temperature. Nylon 46 is prepared by polycondensation of tetramethylenediamine and adipic acid. Diaminobutane (DAB), a raw material, is prepared from the reaction of acrylonitrile with hydrogen cyanide. In the first stage of the polymerization operation, a salt is formed from diaminobutane and adipic acid, and the mixture is polymerized under appropriate pressure The prepolymer is converted into a prepolymer and the solid of the prepolymer is polymerized at a solid state by treatment at about 250 ° C in the presence of nitrogen and water vapor.

Nylon 46, in particular, is characterized by a high amide concentration and a regular arrangement between the methylene and amide groups. The melting point of nylon 46 is about 295 ° C, which is higher than that of other types of nylon, and has attracted attention as a resin having excellent heat resistance due to the above characteristics.

The polyurethane, which is one of the hydrophilic polymers used in the present invention, can be produced by using a known polyurethane reaction technique. For example, it is possible to prepare an intermediate polymer having an isocyanate group at the terminal by reacting a polyalkylene ether glycol with an excess molar of an organic diisocyanate in an amide polar solvent, then dissolving the intermediate polymer in an amide polar solvent, The polyurethane polymer can be obtained by reacting an end terminator.

In the production of the hydrophilic polyurethane prepolymer, polyether polyols are preferably synthesized in a molar ratio of 0.15 to 0.95 based on 1 to 3 moles of isocyanate.

Examples of the isocyanate include isophorone diisocyanate, 2,4-toluene diisocyanate and its isomers, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate, lysine diisocyanate, trimethylhexamethylene diisocyanate, bis (2-isocyanate ether) , 3,3'-dimethyl-4,4'-diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 1,6-hexane diisocyanate, 4,4'-biphenylene diisocyanate, 3,3'-dimethylphenylene diisocyanate, 1,3-xylene diisocyanate, and the like. Of these, diphenylmethane diisocyanate, 2,4-xylene diisocyanate, 1,4-xylene diisocyanate, - toluene diisocyanate and its isomers, p-phenylenediisocyanate, isophorone diisocyanate, hexamethylene diisocyanate It is better to use it.

The polytetrahypolyol includes an ethylene oxide / propylene oxide random copolymer having three or more hydroxyl groups in the molecule and having a molecular weight of 3,000 to 6,000 and an ethylene oxide content of 50 to 80%, and an ethylene oxide / propylene oxide random copolymer having two or more hydroxyl groups in the molecule, Propylene oxide random copolymer having 3 hydroxyl groups in the molecule and a molecular weight of 3,000 to 6,000 and an ethylene oxide content of 50 to 80%. The ethylene oxide / propylene oxide random copolymer Should be used alone. However, in order to control the physical properties, a mixture of a polyisocyanate compound and a polyisocyanate compound not mentioned above may be used.

The specific gravity of the meta-aramid used in the present invention is preferably 1.3 to 1.4, and the weight average molecular weight is preferably 300,000 to 1,000,000. The most preferred weight average molecular weight is 3,000 to 500,000.

The meta-aramid comprises a meta-oriented synthetic aromatic polyamide. Meta-aramid polymers should have a fiber-forming molecular weight and may comprise polyamidic homopolymers, copolymers and mixtures thereof, which are predominantly aromatic, wherein at least 85% of the amide (-CONH-) bonds are directly attached to the two aromatic rings Respectively. The ring may be unsubstituted or substituted. The polymer becomes a meta-aramid when the two rings or radicals are meta-oriented along the molecular chain with respect to each other. Preferably, the copolymer contains up to 10% other diamines substituted for the primary diamine used to form the polymer, or up to 10% other diacids substituted for the primary diacid chloride used to form the polymer It has a diacid chloride. Preferred meta-aramids are poly (meta-phenylene isophthalamide) (MPD-I) and copolymers thereof. One such meta-aramid fiber is < RTI ID = 0.0 > a < / RTI > children. Nomex < (R) > aramid fibers available from EI du Pont de Nemours and Company, but meta-aramid fibers are available from Teijin Ltd., Tokyo, Japan Tejinconex (registered trademark); New Star (TM) meta-aramid available from Yantai Spandex Co. Ltd, Shandong, China; And Chinfunex (registered trademark) Aramid 1313, available from Guangdong Charming Chemical Co., Ltd., Shinduo, Guangdong, China.

This meta-aramid is the first high heat-resistant aramid fiber that can be used at 350 ° C for a short time and at 210 ° C for continuous use. When exposed to temperatures above this temperature, it is carbonized without melting or burning like other fibers . Above all, unlike other products that are flame retarded or refractory treated, they do not emit toxic gases or harmful substances even when carbonized, and thus they have excellent properties as eco-friendly fibers.

In addition, the meta-aramid has a very strong molecular structure of the fiber itself, so it is not only strong in its original strength but also easily oriented in the fiber axis direction in the spinning stage to improve the crystallinity, There is an advantage to increase.

In the meantime, instead of maintaining the concentration at a constant level, the present invention uses the polymer solution having a high concentration to be reused after the overflow, and adjusts the viscosity of the polymer solution to be constant by using the temperature regulating device 60, And it is easy to form nanofibers of the polymer solution because of its high acidity at high temperature conditions for controlling high viscosity without using a diluent.

The viscosity refers to the ratio of the skew stress and the skewness rate of solute and solvent in the flowing liquid. In general, it is expressed in terms of the point dryness per cutting area, and the unit is dynscm-2gcm-1s-1 or poise (P). The viscosity decreases in inverse proportion to the temperature rise. If the viscosity of the solution is higher than the viscosity of the solvent, the flow of the liquid is distorted depending on the solute, and the flow rate of the liquid is lowered by the amount.

The viscosity of the solution is measured at various solution concentrations and extrapolated to a concentration of 0, and the relationship between the intrinsic viscosity (?) And the molecular weight M of the substance can be expressed as (?) = KMa. In this case, K, a is an integer depending on the type of solute or solvent and the temperature. Therefore, the viscosity value is affected by the temperature, and the degree of the change depends on the type of fluid. Therefore, when talking about viscosity, the values of temperature and viscosity should be specified.

When fabricating the nanofiber with the electrospinning device 1, the type of the polymer and solvent used, the concentration of the polymer solution, the temperature and humidity of the spinning room, It is known to affect radioactivity. That is, the physical properties of the polymer (polymer solution) emitted from electrospinning are important. It has been considered that it is usually necessary to maintain the viscosity of the polymer at or below a predetermined viscosity at the time of electrospinning. This is because the higher viscosity means that the nano-sized fibers are not smoothly radiated through the nozzle, and the higher the viscosity, the more unsuitable for fiberization through electrospinning.

The present invention is characterized in that it includes a temperature regulating device 60 for maintaining fiber viscosity suitable for electrospinning as described above.

The temperature regulating device 60 may include a heating device capable of keeping the viscosity of the polymer solution having a high viscosity reusable through overflow at a low level or a cooling device capable of maintaining a viscosity of the polymer solution having a relatively low viscosity at a high level .

In the temperature in the electrospinning region, the temperature of the region where the electrospinning occurs (hereinafter, referred to as the 'radiating region') changes the surface tension of the spinning solution by changing the viscosity of the spinning solution, . ≪ / RTI >

That is, when the temperature of the radiation region is relatively high, the nanofiber having a relatively small fiber diameter is produced when the viscosity of the solution is low, and the nanofiber having relatively large fiber diameter is produced when the viscosity of the solution is relatively high because the temperature is relatively low.

In particular, in the case of the polymer solution, the concentration of the polymer solution re-supplied through the overflow tends to increase. By measuring the concentration of the polymer solution in the intermediate tank 220 and adjusting the temperature using the temperature- The viscosity can be kept constant.

The concentration measuring device for measuring the concentration has a contact type and a non-contact type in direct contact with a solution, and a capillary type concentration measuring device and a disk (DISC) type concentration measuring device can be used as a contact type. A concentration measuring apparatus using a concentration measuring apparatus using infrared or the like can be used.

The heating device of the present invention may be an electric heater, a hot water circulating device, a hot air circulating device, or the like. In addition, devices capable of raising the temperature in the same range as the above devices may be borrowed.

As an example of the heating device, the electro-thermal heater may be used in the form of a hot wire, and coil-shaped hot wires 62a and 62b may be mounted inside the tube 43 of the nozzle block 110, (See Figs. 5 to 10).

It is also possible to have the configuration of the linear heat lines 62a and 62b and the U-shaped pipe 63.

The heating device includes a nozzle block 110 through which the polymer solution is radiated, a tank (main storage tank, intermediate tank or regeneration tank) and an overflow system 200 (in particular, a tank And a transfer pipe).

The cooling device of the present invention may be a cooling device including a chilling device, and the means for maintaining a constant viscosity of the polymer solution is usually applicable. The cooling device may be provided in at least one of the nozzle block 110, the tank, and the overflow system 200 in the same manner as the heating device, and is used to maintain a certain viscosity of the polymer solution.

In addition, the temperature controller 60 of the present invention includes a sensor for measuring the concentration and a temperature control unit (not shown) for controlling the temperature accordingly.

The sensor is installed on the main storage tank 210, the intermediate tank 220, the regeneration tank 230, the nozzle block 110 or the overflow system 200 to measure the concentration of the flushing liquid in real time, The heating device and / or the cooling device is operated so that the viscosity is kept constant in the heating device 60.

The concentration of the polymer solution re-supplied through the overflow system 200 of the present invention is 20 to 40%, which is a high concentration solution compared to the concentration of the polymer solution used in conventional electrospinning of 10 to 18%.

Further, in order to make the viscosity of the polymer solution re-supplied according to the present invention constant, the temperature of the polymer solution according to the concentration of the polymer solution is controlled at 45 to 120 ° C, not at room temperature, To < RTI ID = 0.0 > 100 C. < / RTI >

Meanwhile, the viscosity of the polymer solution of the present invention is preferably 1,000 to 5,000 cps, more preferably 1,000 to 3,000 cps. If the viscosity is 1,000 cps or less, the quality of the nanofibers to be electrospun is poor, and if the viscosity is 3,000 cps or more, the polymer solution can not be easily discharged from the nozzle 42 during the electrospinning, resulting in a slow production rate.

In the present invention, since the viscosity of the polymer solution is constant as the electrospinning progresses, the ease of spinning during electrospinning is excellent, and the concentration of the polymer solution is increased. As a result, the amount of solids in the nanofibers accumulated in the collector increases, There is an increasing effect.

In addition, the amount of the residual solvent of the nanofibers using electrospinning is lower than that of the conventional electrospinning, and thus it is possible to produce nanofibers of excellent quality.

The temperature control device 60 of the present invention controls the viscosity of the polymer solution through the temperature control of the nozzle block 110 or the main storage tank 210 by measuring the concentration of the intermediate tank 220 off- And an automatic system that can adjust the temperature of the solution according to the concentration measurement through an automatic control system on-line.
