Description

TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to a filter medium, a method of manufacturing the filter medium, and a filter unit including the filter medium.

More particularly, the present invention relates to a filter material having hydrophilic properties, which improves water permeability and chemical resistance, and is easy to control contamination, has excellent durability, and can withstand high pressure due to backwashing The present invention relates to a filter medium having mechanical strength, a method for manufacturing the filter medium, and a filter unit including the filter medium.

The separation membrane can be classified into a microfiltration membrane (MF), an ultrafiltration membrane (UF), a nanofiltration membrane (NF), or a reverse osmosis membrane (RO) depending on the pore size.

Although the separation membranes have different usages and pore size differences, they have a common feature in that they are in the form of a filtration medium or a porous polymer filtration medium formed from fibers or a composite membrane thereof.

The porous polymer filter medium may be formed by forming pores formed in a polymer membrane or a polymer hollow fiber by sintering the pore former through a separate pore former contained in the tank solution or by dissolving the pore former in an external coagulating solution It is common. On the contrary, the filter medium formed from the fibers is generally manufactured by accumulating the manufactured short fibers and then applying heat / pressure or the like, or applying heat / pressure or the like simultaneously with the spinning.

Typical examples of the filtration media formed from the fibers are nonwoven fabric. In general, the pores of the nonwoven fabric are controlled by the diameter of the short fibers, the basis weight of the medium, and the like. However, since the diameter of the short fibers included in the general nonwoven fabric is in the unit of microns, there is a limitation in realizing a separation membrane having a fine and uniform pore structure only by controlling the diameter and basis weight of the fibers. Accordingly, It is difficult to realize a separation membrane such as an ultrafiltration membrane or a nano separation membrane for filtration.

A method designed to solve this problem is a separation membrane produced through microfibers having a fiber diameter of nanometer. However, the microfine fiber having a diameter of nanometer unit is difficult to be manufactured by only one spinning process by a fiber spinning process such as a general wet spinning process, and it is necessary to elute the sea component separately after radiating to sea chart yarn, There is a problem that it is troublesome to work, the cost is increased, and the production time is extended. Recently, there has been a tendency to manufacture a large number of filter media formed from fibers by directly spinning fibers having a diameter of nanometer unit through electrospinning.

In the pore of the filtration media in which the water treatment process is repeatedly performed, some of various foreign substances contained in the for-treatment water may remain or an adherent layer may be formed on the surface of the filtration medium. there is a problem. In order to solve this problem, it is conceivable to prevent the occurrence of the fouling phenomenon itself by the pretreatment or to clean the filtration medium already having the fouling phenomenon. In the filtration medium, It is common to apply a high pressure to the filtration medium to remove the foreign matter remaining in the filtration medium so as to be in the opposite direction to the flow path through which the filtrate flows. However, the high pressure applied to the filtration media during washing may cause damage to the filtration media, and in the case of the filtration media formed in a multi-layer structure, the problem of interlayer separation may occur.

On the other hand, not only the structure of the above-mentioned filtration media, but also the chemical characteristics of the filtration media are important. In particular, the hydrophilicity / hydrophobicity balance of the filtration media can greatly affect the performance of the filtration media.

In general, the filtration medium used for water treatment may contaminate the contaminants by adsorbing contaminants on the surface of the filter medium while filtering the contaminated raw water. If the contamination of the filtration media is excessive, the water permeation pressure, which acts upon filtration, Which may ultimately lower the filtration function of the filter medium. In order to control the contamination of such a filter medium, there is a method of cleaning using chlorine, acid, alkali or the like. However, since there is a problem of shortening the life of the filter medium, recently, Studies are underway to use a vinylidene resin or to make the filtration medium hydrophilic.

However, since conventional hydrophobic filtration media exhibit excellent chemical, thermal, and biological stability, it is desirable to combine hydrophilic properties capable of controlling contaminants with hydrophobic properties in the field of water treatment filtration media.

In general, a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) filter medium has characteristics of being susceptible to contamination because its surface characteristics are hydrophobic. To prevent this, a method of chemical surface modification or coating in a post-treatment process Is widely used. However, in this case, there may be a problem of uniformity and durability of the surface, and the additional post-treatment process must be carried out, resulting in a low productivity and a long manufacturing process. Furthermore, in the case of a filtration medium whose surface is chemically modified, there may be disadvantages in terms of mechanical strength and chemical stability.

Accordingly, even in the backwash process performed at a high pressure, the shape, the structural deformation and the damage of the filter medium are minimized and the flow path is smoothly secured. Therefore, the flow rate and the speed of the treated water are increased, It is urgent to develop a filter medium having improved chemical resistance.

Hereinafter, exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, which will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art to which the present invention pertains. The present invention may be embodied in many different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described herein. In order to clearly illustrate the present invention, parts not related to the description are omitted, and the same reference numerals are assigned to the same or similar components throughout the specification.

As shown in FIG. 1, the filter media 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes a porous first support 130, upper and lower portions of the first support 130, and includes a hydrophilic component The nanofibrous webs 111 and 112 having a three-dimensional network structure having a plurality of pores formed by the lamination of the nanofibers and the first and second support members 130 and 112 and the nanofiber webs 111 and 112, 2 supports 121,122.

The nanofiber webs 111 and 112 are stacked on each of the surfaces of the second supports 121 and 122 which are in contact with the first support 130 and the nanofibrous webs 111 and 112, Can be randomly stacked. (See FIG. 5).

Generally, filter media formed only with nanofibers with small hydrophobicity have excellent chemical resistance. However, when such a filter medium is applied to the water treatment filter field, there is a problem that the water permeability is lowered due to the affinity to water due to the small number of characteristics of the filter medium. At this time, the water permeability of the hydrophobic filter material can be improved by using sufficient pressure, but since the required pressure is very high (150 to 300 psi), the filter material may be damaged. In addition, there is a problem in that it is weak against contaminants having a small number of properties, and research on hydrophilized or wet out treatment which gives a hydrophilic property to filter media is required.

As an example of such a method, there has been disclosed a method of filling a filter medium with a preparation such as glycerol to impart a hydrophilic property. However, since water molecules can serve as a plasticizer, a filter having a mechanical strength and thermal stability is required There is an unsuitable side.

In addition, a chemical modification that imparts hydrophilic properties to the surface of a filter material made of a compound having a hydrophobic property such as polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP) and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) However, there is a problem of surface uniformity and durability, and further post-treatment process must be carried out, resulting in low productivity and long time. Furthermore, chemically modified filter media may have disadvantages in terms of mechanical strength and chemical stability.

Accordingly, the present invention can solve the above problems by embodying nanofiber webs 111 and 112 with nanofibers containing hydrophilic components. Preferably, the nanofiber web 111 , 112).

The hydrophilic component can be crosslinked by a chemical, thermal and / or radiation method, with a polymer having a polar or charged functional group that complements the low miscibility of the nanofibrous webs 111, 112 having hydrophobic properties with water ≪ / RTI > In one embodiment, the hydrophilic component is selected from the group consisting of polyvinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate (PVP / VA) copolymer, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyepylene glycol (PEG), acrylamide resin, acrylic resin, (PEI), polyimide (PI), polyamide (PA), cellulose acetate (CA), and the like may be used, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

 The hydrophilic component may be contained in an amount of 20 to 60% by weight, more specifically 30 to 50% by weight, based on the fiber forming component to be described later. If the content of the hydrophilic component is less than 20% by weight, the porosity of the filter media may be too low, and if the content of the hydrophilic ingredients is more than 60% by weight, the porosity may be too high to reduce the mechanical strength of the filter media. As a preferred embodiment, a polyvinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate (PVP / VA) copolymer may be used as the hydrophilic component. The polyvinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate (PVP / VA) copolymer has a weight average molecular weight of 6,000 to 100,000 Can be used.

As described above, since the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 of the filter media according to the present invention are formed of nanofibers containing a hydrophilic component, the hydrophilic components can be uniformly dispersed on the inner and / or outer surfaces of the nanofiber, It is possible to prevent deterioration of the filtration efficiency and mechanical strength of the filter media due to the deterioration of the filter media. In addition, since it has hydrophilic / hydrophobic properties, it can secure the chemical stability of the filter media, has excellent water permeability, and is easily applicable to various filter fields because of easy control of the pollutants.

Next, the nanofibers forming the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 may be formed to include a known fiber forming component in addition to the above-described hydrophilic component. However, in order to exhibit excellent chemical resistance and heat resistance, a fluorine-based compound may be contained as a fiber-forming component, so that even if the water to be treated is a strong acid / strong base solution or a solution having a high temperature, And it has an advantage of securing the filtration efficiency / flow rate and having a long use period. The fluorine-based compound may be used without limitation in the case of a known fluorine-based compound that can be prepared as a nanofiber. Examples of the fluorine-based compound include polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE), tetrafluoroethylene-perfluoroalkylvinylether copolymer Tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer (PEP), tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene copolymer (FEP), tetrafluoroethylene-hexafluoropropylene-perfluoroalkyl vinyl ether copolymer (EPE) (ETFE), polychlorotrifluoroethylene (PCTFE), chlorotrifluoroethylene-ethylene copolymer (ECTFE), and polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) More preferably, the production cost is low and mass production of nanofibers through electrospinning is easy, and the mechanical strength and chemical resistance are excellent In one aspect may be a polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF). When the nanofiber includes PVDF as a fiber forming component, the PVDF may have a weight average molecular weight of 10,000 to 1,000,000, preferably 300,000 to 600,000, but is not limited thereto.

The nanofibers may have an average diameter of 0.05 to 1 占 퐉 and an aspect ratio of 1,000 to 100,000, but the present invention is not limited thereto. For example, the nanofibers provided in the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 may include a first nanofiber group having a diameter of 0.1 to 0.2 μm, a second nanofiber group having a diameter of 0.2 to 0.3 μm and a second nanofiber group having a diameter of 0.3 to 0.4 μm 3 nanofibers can be included in the amount of 35 wt%, 53 wt%, and 12 wt%, respectively, based on the total weight of the nanofiber web 111.

The thickness of the nanofibrous webs 111 and 112 may be 0.5 to 200 mu m, for example, 20 mu m. The porosity of the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 may be 40 to 90%, and more preferably 60 to 90%. In addition, the average pore diameter may be 0.1 to 5 占 퐉, more preferably 0.1 to 3 占 퐉, and may be 0.25 占 퐉, for example. The basis weight of the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 may be 0.05 to 20 g / m 2, and may be 10 g / m 2, for example, but is not limited thereto and may be appropriately changed in consideration of the desired water permeability and filtration efficiency.

In addition, the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 may be provided in more than one layer in the filter material 1000, and the pore size, pore size, basis weight, and / or thickness of each nanofiber web may be different.

Hereinafter, another configuration of the filter media 1000 will be described in detail.

First, the first support 130 supports the filter material 1000 and forms a large flow path to perform the filtration process or the backwash process more smoothly. Specifically, when a pressure gradient is formed so as to have a lower internal pressure than that of the filter media in the filtration process, the filter media can be squeezed. In this case, since the flow path through which the filtrate flows in the filter media is significantly reduced or blocked There is a problem that a larger differential pressure is applied to the filter filter material and the flow rate is remarkably lowered. In addition, during backwashing, an external force may be applied to expand the filter media toward the outside in both directions. However, the filter media may be damaged due to an external force applied when the mechanical strength is low.

The first support 130 is provided to prevent the above-mentioned problems occurring in the filtration process and / or the backwashing process. The first support 130 may be a known porous material that is used in the water treatment field and has mechanical strength. For example, The first support may be a nonwoven, fabric or fabric.

The fabric means that the fibers included in the fabric have longitudinal and lateral directions, and the specific structure may be plain weave, twill weave, etc., and the density of warp and weft yarn is not particularly limited. Further, the knitted fabric may be a known knit structure, a weft knitted fabric, a knitted fabric, or the like, and may be, for example, a tricot knitted yarn. 1, the first support body 130 may be a nonwoven fabric having no longitudinal and transverse directional properties on the fibers 130a, and may be a dry nonwoven fabric such as a chemical bonding nonwoven fabric, a thermal bonding nonwoven fabric, an airray nonwoven fabric, a wet nonwoven fabric, , Needle punching nonwoven fabric, or meltblown, may be used.

The first support 130 may occupy a thickness of 90% or more of the total thickness of the filter media as described above in order to exhibit sufficient mechanical strength. For example, it may be 2 to 8 mm, more preferably 2 to 5 mm, and even more preferably 3 to 5 mm of the first support 130. If the thickness is less than 2 mm, it may not exhibit sufficient mechanical strength to withstand frequent backwashing. Also, when the thickness exceeds 8 mm, the degree of integration of the filter material per unit volume of the module may be reduced when the filter material is implemented as a filter unit described below and a plurality of filter units are implemented by a limited space filter module.

 Preferably, the first support 130 may have a basis weight of 250 to 800 g / m 2, more preferably 350 to 600 g / m 2, while satisfying the thickness condition as described above. If the basis weight is 250 g / m < 2 >, it may be difficult to exhibit sufficient mechanical strength, and adhesion with the second support may decrease. If the basis weight exceeds 800 g / m & And there is a problem that smooth backwashing is difficult due to an increase in differential pressure.

In addition, when the first support 130 is formed of fibers such as nonwoven fabric, the average diameter of the fibers may be 5 to 50 탆, and preferably 20 to 50 탆. In addition, the first support 130 may have an average pore size of 20 to 200 μm and a porosity of 50 to 90%, but the present invention is not limited thereto. In the filtration process and / or the backwash process, There is no restriction as to the degree of porosity and pore size so as to support the webs 111 and 112 to exhibit a desired level of mechanical strength and to smoothly form a flow path at high pressure.

The material of the first support body 130 is not limited if it is used as a support for the separation membrane. By way of non-limiting example, synthetic polymer components selected from the group consisting of polyester based, polyurethane based, polyolefin based and polyamide based; Or a natural polymer component including a cellulose system may be used. However, if the first support has a brittle physical property, it may be difficult to expect a desired level of bonding force in the process of laminating the first support and the second support. This is because the first support has a smooth surface The surface may be macroscopically roughened while forming the porosity, and the surface formed by the fibers, such as nonwoven fabric, may not have a smooth surface depending on the arrangement of the fibers and the fineness of the fibers, to be. If the remaining portions are bonded while the portion not in contact with the interface between the two layers being bonded is present, delamination may be started due to the non-adhered portion. In order to solve this problem, it is necessary to carry out the lapping process while increasing the degree of close contact between the two layers by applying pressure in both layers. If the brittle physical property is strong, The support may be broken when applying a larger pressure, so that the material of the first support may be flexible, the material of high elongation may be suitable, and preferably the second support 121 and 122 may have good adhesion The first support 130 may be a polyolefin-based material.

Meanwhile, the first support body 130 may include a low melting point component to bond with the second support bodies 121 and 122 without a separate adhesive or an adhesive layer. When the first support 130 is the same fabric as the nonwoven fabric, it may be made of the first composite fiber 130a having a low melting point component. The first composite fiber 130a may include a support component and a low melting point component so that at least a part of the low melting point component is exposed on the outer surface. For example, a cis-core type conjugate fiber in which a support component forms a core portion and a low melting point component forms a sheath portion surrounding the core portion, and a side-by-side composite fiber having a low- Lt; / RTI > The low-melting-point component and the support component may be polyolefin-based in view of the flexibility and elongation of the support, as described above. For example, the support component may be polypropylene and the low-melting component may be polyethylene. The melting point of the low melting point component may be 60 to 180 ° C.

Next, the second supporting bodies 121 and 122 arranged on both surfaces of the above-described first supporting body 130 will be described.

The second supports 121 and 122 support the nanofibrous webs 111 and 112 to be described later and function to increase the bonding force of the layers provided in the filter media.

The second support members 121 and 122 are not particularly limited as long as they generally serve as a support for the filter media, but they may preferably be woven, knitted or nonwoven fabric. The fabric means that the fibers included in the fabric have longitudinal and lateral directions, and the specific structure may be plain weave, twill weave, etc., and the density of warp and weft yarn is not particularly limited. The knitted fabric may be a known knitted fabric, and may be a knitted fabric, a knitted fabric, or the like, but is not particularly limited thereto. The nonwoven fabric means that the fibers are not oriented in the longitudinal and transverse directions. The nonwoven fabric may be a dry nonwoven fabric such as a chemical bonding nonwoven fabric, a thermal bonding nonwoven fabric, an airlay nonwoven fabric, a wet nonwoven fabric, a spunless nonwoven fabric, a needle punching nonwoven fabric or a meltblown A non-woven fabric manufactured by the above-mentioned method can be used.

The second supporting members 121 and 122 may be nonwoven fabric. The fibers forming the second supporting members 121 and 122 may have an average diameter of 5 to 30 μm. The thickness of the second support bodies 121 and 122 may be 100 to 400 탆, more preferably 150 to 400 탆, still more preferably 150 to 250 탆, for example, 200 탆 .

The second support bodies 121 and 122 may have an average pore size of 20 to 100 μm and a porosity of 50 to 90%. However, the present invention is not limited to this, and it may be possible to support the nanofiber webs 111 and 122 to be described later to develop a desired level of mechanical strength and to prevent the flow of the filtrate flowing through the nanofiber webs 111 and 122 Porosity, and pore size.

The basis weight of the second support bodies 121 and 122 may be 10 to 200 g / m 2, more preferably 35 to 200 g / m 2, and still more preferably 35 to 80 g / m 2. , And 40 g / m < 2 >. If the basis weight is less than 10 g / m < 2 >, the amount of fibers forming the second support distributed at the interface formed with the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 described later may be small. It may not be possible to exhibit the desired level of bonding force due to a decrease in the bonding area. Further, the nanofibrous web may not exhibit sufficient mechanical strength to support the nanofiber web, and the adhesion with the first support may be reduced. If the basis weight exceeds 200 g / m < 2 >, it may be difficult to obtain the desired level of flow rate, and there may be a problem that smooth backwashing is difficult due to an increase in differential pressure.

The second support members 121 and 122 are not limited as far as they are used as a support for filter media. By way of non-limiting example, synthetic polymer components selected from the group consisting of polyester based, polyurethane based, polyolefin based and polyamide based; Or a natural polymer component including a cellulose system may be used.

However, the second supports 121 and 122 may be a polyolefin-based polymer component for enhancing adhesion between the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 described later and the first support 130 described above. If the second support members 121 and 122 are made of the same material as the nonwoven fabric, they may be made of the second composite fiber 121a having a low melting point component. The second composite fiber 121a may include a support component and a low melting point component so that at least a part of the low melting point component is exposed on the outer surface. For example, a cis-core type conjugate fiber in which a support component forms a core portion and a low melting point component forms a sheath portion surrounding the core portion, and a side-by-side composite fiber having a low- Lt; / RTI > The low-melting-point component and the support component may be polyolefin-based in view of the flexibility and elongation of the support, as described above. For example, the support component may be polypropylene and the low-melting component may be polyethylene. The melting point of the low melting point component may be 60 to 180 ° C.

If the first support 130 is embodied as a first composite fiber 130a having a low melting point component to exhibit a further improved bonding strength with the second supports 121 and 122, A more firmly fused portion due to fusion of the low melting point component of the first conjugated fiber 130a and the low melting point component of the second conjugated fiber 121a can be formed at the interface between the two supports 121. At this time, the first composite fiber 130a and the second composite fiber 121a may be made of the same material in terms of compatibility.

As the water treatment process using the filter media is repeated, the foreign substances contained in the for-treatment water adhere to the filter media to form an adherent layer, or they are embedded in the filter media, thereby blocking the flow path and deteriorating the filtering function. There is a problem that the cost of water treatment increases when the filter media is replaced. Accordingly, in order to extend the service life of the filter media, it is necessary to perform a cleaning process of periodically applying physical stimulus to the filter media to adhere to the filter media or to remove impurities contained in the filter media. BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0003] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0004] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0005] BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION [0005] [Background Art] [0005] Backwashing typically involves washing water in a direction opposite to the filtration direction of filter media, It is necessary to supply washing water or air at a pressure higher than the pressure applied to the filter media in the filtration process.

Accordingly, in order for the filter media to have the backwashing ability, it is important that the filter media have such mechanical strength that the filter media is not deformed or damaged even under high applied pressure, and a support for compensating mechanical strength is usually provided in the filter media . Factors that may affect the mechanical strength of the support include the structure of the support, for example, the diameter of the fibers forming the nonwoven fabric when the support is nonwoven, the length of the fibers, the manner of interfiber bonding, thickness and basis weight, The thicker or larger the basis weight, the greater the mechanical strength of the support. Therefore, for example, a nonwoven fabric having a large thickness or a nonwoven fabric having a very large basis weight may be used as a support for designing a filter medium which is resistant to backwashing.

On the other hand, it is preferable that the support has a large pore size so as not to affect the flow of the filtrate of the filter media. The lowering of the flow rate due to the support provided for the purpose of compensating the mechanical strength is very undesirable because it deteriorates the main properties of the filter media. However, when a nonwoven fabric having sufficient mechanical strength is used as a support even though the thickness is thin, the basis weight of the nonwoven fabric is very large, and thus the diameter and porosity of the pores in the nonwoven fabric are inevitably small. As a result, There is a problem that the desired level of flow can not be secured.

Accordingly, the filter support 1000 according to the present invention may have a thickness of 90% or more of the entire filter support, which secures a sufficient flow passage while securing mechanical strength of the filter support, 130 may preferably be at least 95%, more preferably 98 to 99.9% of the total thickness of the filter media. If the first support is less than 90% of the total thickness of the filter media, the filter media may not have sufficient mechanical strength to perform backwashing, which may shorten the replacement period of the filter media. In addition, securing the mechanical strength of the first support to such an extent that it is less than 90% of the total thickness of the filter media and sufficient to withstand backwashing is highly desirable because there may be flow interruption and flow reduction of the filtrate due to the first support Can not do it.

However, if the binding force between the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 functioning as filter media and the first support 130 is weak, the durability of the filter media due to backwashing may be deteriorated even though the mechanical strength is excellent. That is, the high pressure applied during backwashing can accelerate the interfacial separation between the layers forming the filter media. In this case, as shown in FIG. 2, There is a problem that the function as the separation membrane can be remarkably reduced or completely lost.

Therefore, the high adhesion between the first support having a considerably increased thickness and the nanofiber web as a filter medium is very important in realizing a filter material exhibiting sufficient durability for frequent backwashing.

In general, a method of attaching the support and the nanofiber web may be performed by using a separate adhesive material or by fusing a low melting point component provided on the support to the nanofiber web to bond the two layers together. However, when the two layers are bonded to each other through a separate bonding material, there is a possibility that the bonding material is dissolved by the for-treatment water, thereby causing a problem of contamination of the filtrate and lowering of water permeability. If the binder material is partially backwashed, the backfill of the filter media or the nanofiber web may peel off and the filter media may be completely lost.

Accordingly, it is possible to employ a method in which the nanofiber web and the support are bonded to each other through fusion (A), and heat and / or heat may be applied to both the support 1 and the nanofiber web 2, Pressure can be applied to bond them. However, when applying heat and / or pressure, consideration must be given to minimizing the physical and chemical transformation of the nanofiber web 2, which acts as a filter media due to the applied heat and pressure, The physical properties such as the flow rate and the filtration rate of the filter material designed at the beginning can be changed when the nano web is physically and chemically deformed.

What should be considered when selecting the heat and / or pressure conditions in the attachment process so that there is no physical / chemical deformation of the nanofiber web 2 can be the material properties of the nanofiber web, the support, such as melting point, thermal conductivity, A low melting point component of the support may be fused to the nanofiber web or a high pressure may be applied even if the melting point is somewhat lower than the melting point so that the low melting point component of the support may be fused to the nanofiber web have.

On the other hand, the material forming the support or the nanofiber web is a polymer compound. Since such a polymer compound has a small thermal conductivity and a very large heat capacity, even if a predetermined heat (H ₁ , H ₂ ) is applied to both sides In order for the heat (H ₁ , H ₂ ) to reach the interface between the nanofiber web 1 and the support 2 to raise the temperature of the low melting point component provided in the support 2 to the melting point, Should be applied. 3, when the thickness of the support 1 is very large, heat (H ₂ ) transmitted from below is transmitted to the vicinity of the interface between the nanofiber web 2 and the support 1, It may take a longer time to raise the temperature of the melting point component to the melting point and it is necessary to apply a larger amount of heat downward to shorten the time. However, when too large heat is applied from below, melting of the low melting point component may occur first in the lower part of the first support, and the shape and structure of the support may be changed.

In this case, the nanofibrous web 2 may be physically / chemically deformed. In this case, the heat (H1) applied to the nanofibrous web 2 may be increased, There is a problem in that the physical properties of the filter media designed in the present invention can not be fully manifested.

Accordingly, the filter material 1000 according to an embodiment of the present invention does not face the first support 130 and the nanofiber webs 111 and 112 directly but intervenes between the second supports 121 and 122 having a smaller thickness This makes it possible to carry out the interlayer adhesion process more stably and easily and to exhibit a remarkably excellent bonding force at the interface between the respective layers and to minimize delamination and peeling problems even when a high external force is applied due to backwashing or the like.

4a, the second support 3, which occupies less than 10% of the total thickness of the filter media, is different in thickness from the nanofiber web 2 in that the nanofiber web 2 and the first support 1 The heat (H ₁ , H ₂ ) applied above and below the laminated body of the nanofiber web 2 / the second support 3 reaches the interface therebetween, B) is easier than in Fig. In addition, since the amount and time of heat to be applied is more easily controlled than in FIG. 3, it is advantageous to prevent physical / chemical deformation of the nanofiber web 2, ), There is an advantage that the nanofibers can be bonded with excellent adhesive force on the support without changing the physical properties of the nanofiber web 2 designed at the beginning.

The filter material 1000 described above can be manufactured by a manufacturing method described later, but is not limited thereto.

The filter media 1000 according to the present invention comprises the steps of (1) preparing a nanofiber web comprising a hydrophilic component, (2) laminating the nanofiber web and the second support, and (3) And arranging and laminating the lapped nanofiber web and the second support on both sides of the first support so as to abut the first support.

First, in step (1) according to the present invention, a step of producing a nanofiber web comprising a hydrophilic component is performed.

The step (1) may be carried out through the first manufacturing method and the second manufacturing method.

(1) preparing a spinning solution containing a hydrophilic component and a fiber-forming component; (1-2) spinning the spinning solution to produce a nanofiber web; and -3) crosslinking the hydrophilic component of the nanofiber web and the fiber forming component.

The step (1-1) is a step of preparing a spinning solution containing a hydrophilic component and a fiber forming component. The hydrophilic component means a polymer having a polar or charged functional group that complements the low miscibility of nanofibers having hydrophobic properties with water and a polymer capable of crosslinking by chemical, thermal and / or radiation methods . In one embodiment, the hydrophilic component is selected from the group consisting of polyvinylpyrrolidone vinyl acetate (PVP / VA) copolymer, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP), polyepylene glycol (PEG), acrylamide resin, acrylic resin, (PEI), polyimide (PI), polyamide (PA), cellulose acetate (CA), and the like may be used, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

The fiber-forming component may include, for example, a fluorine-based compound and a solvent. The fluorine-based compound may be contained in the spinning solution in an amount of 5 to 30 wt%, preferably 8 to 20 wt%. If the fluorine-based compound is less than 5 wt%, it is difficult to form fibers, Even if the film is formed or spun, a large amount of beads are formed and the volatilization of the solvent is not performed well, so that the pores may be clogged in the calendering process described later. If the amount of the fluorine-based compound exceeds 30% by weight, the viscosity increases and the surface of the solution becomes solidified, which makes it difficult to spin for a long period of time.

The solvent can be used without limitation in the case of a solvent which does not affect the radioactivity of the nanofiber described later without dissolving the fluorine-based compound as a fiber-forming component and does not produce a precipitate, but preferably is selected from the group consisting of г-butyrolactone, cyclohexanone, And at least one selected from the group consisting of hexanone, 3-heptanone, 3-octanone, N-methylpyrrolidone, dimethylacetamide, acetone dimethylsulfoxide and dimethylformamide. For example, the solvent may be a solvent for the mixing of dimethylacetamide and acetone.

The nanofiber web can be used without limitation in the case of a method of forming a fibrous web having a three-dimensional network shape with nanofibers. Preferably, the nanofiber web may be prepared by electrospinning a spinning solution containing a fluorine-based compound on a second support to form a nanofiber web.

Next, (1-2) spinning the spinning solution to produce a nanofiber web.

The prepared spinning solution can be produced by a known electrospinning apparatus and method. For example, the electrospinning device may be an electrospinning device having a single spinning pack with one spinning nozzle or an electrospinning device with a plurality of single spinning packs or a spinning pack with multiple nozzles for mass production Also, Also, in the electrospinning method, wet spinning with dry spinning or external coagulation can be used, and there is no limitation with respect to the method.

The nanofiber web formed of nanofibers can be obtained when a spinning solution stirred in the electrospinning device is injected to electrospray on a collector, for example, paper. The specific conditions for the electrospinning are, for example, that the air pressure of the air injection nozzle provided in the nozzle of the spinning pack may be set in the range of 0.01 to 0.2 MPa. If the air pressure is less than 0.01 MPa, it can not contribute to the collection and accumulation. If the air pressure exceeds 0.2 MPa, the cone of the spinneret is hardened and the needle may be clogged and radiation trouble may occur. In addition, when the spinning solution is spinned, the injection rate of the spinning solution per nozzle may be 10 to 30 μl / min. The distance between the tip of the nozzle and the collector may be 10 to 30 cm. However, it is not limited to this, and it can be changed according to purpose.

Next, (1-3) crosslinking the hydrophilic component of the nanofiber web with the fiber forming component may be performed.

The crosslinking agent may be used without limitation in the case of a known crosslinking agent having a functional group capable of crosslinking through a condensation reaction with a hydroxyl group of the hydrophilic component. For example, the functional group may be a hydroxyl group, a carboxyl group, and the like. For example, the crosslinking agent may include at least one material selected from the group consisting of poly (acrylic acid-maleic acid), polyacrylic acid, and poly (styrenesulfonic acid-maleic acid). The crosslinking agent may be a multifunctional crosslinking agent containing at least three or more carboxyl groups in order to exhibit a further improved flow rate.

The step (1-3) preferably includes a step of leaching an excess hydrophilic polymer that is not bonded or not crosslinked after crosslinking. Uncrosslinked copolymers can be washed off using a suitable solvent.

Alternatively, the step (1) may comprise the steps of (1-1) preparing a spinning solution containing a hydrophilic component and a fiber-forming component, (1-2) mixing a fiber- And (1-3) spinning the spinning solution to produce a nanofiber web.

Hereinafter, the second manufacturing method will be described focusing on the difference from the first manufacturing method described above.

The step (1-1) may be carried out in the same manner as in the step (1-1) of the first production method except that the step (1-1) can be further performed by further including a thermosetting agent and an initiator.

The thermosetting agent is used for imparting additional hydrophilization properties to the filter media, and can be thermally polymerized. The acrylic monomer, oligomer curing agent, or non-acrylic curing agent, which is a material having hydrophilic properties upon thermal curing, 5 to 50% by weight.

The hardener monomer or oligomer may polymerize to form a polymer network or a droplet form when the temperature of the initiator reaches a temperature at which the initiator can act at the moment of melting the components in the spinning solution, The components are graft polymerized. When the hydrophilic component is subjected to graft polymerization, the hydrophilic component itself not only imparts hydrophilicity to the filter media, but also prevents the hydrophilic component from being washed away by the solvent.

Examples of the curing agent that can be used include monomers such as butyl acrylate (BA), 2-ethylhexyl acrylate (2EHA), octyl / decyl acrylate (ODA) and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate ), Hydroxyalkyl acrylate type such as 2-hydroxypropyl acrylate (HPA), 4-hydroxybutyl acrylate (HBA) and 2,3-dihydroxypropyl acrylate, nonylphenol ethoxylate monoacryl (MNPEOA), isobornylacrylate (IBOA), beta carboxyethyl acrylate (b-CEA), tetrahydrofurfuryl acrylate (THFFA), cyclohexyl acrylate (CHA), alkylated cycloalkyl Alkylated cycloalkyl acrylates, dicyclopentenyl acrylate (DCPA), dicyclopentenyloxyethyl acrylate (DCPEOA), propylene glycol (MPPGA), propylene glycol methacrylate (MPPGMA), 2- (2-ethoxyethoxy) ethyl acrylate (EOEOEA), 2-hydroxypropyl methacrylate Methacrylate (HEME), and the like, and non-acrylic compound monomers such as vinyl acetate and N-vinylpyrrolidone.

The thermal initiator serves to enable radical polymerization and may be used alone or as a mixture depending on the temperature. The thermoinitiator may be selected from the group consisting of peroxide type benzoyl peroxide (40-100 ° C), dilauryl peroxide (50-100 ° C), di- (30 to 80 ° C), azo compound azobis acrylonitrile (30 to 80 ° C), and azobisisacrylonitrile (50 to 120 ° C) Such as diisopropyldiazane (180 to 200 ° C), and dimethyldiazene (azomethane, 225 to 250 ° C) may be used, but the present invention is not limited thereto.

Next, (1-2) ', polymerizing the fiber-forming component and the hydrophilic component in the spinning solution may be carried out.

The step (1-2) is a step of polymerizing components in the spinning solution, and may be carried out in a separate reactor to increase polymerization efficiency. In one embodiment, the step (1-2) 'may be performed in a cylinder of the extruder, the cylinder of the extruder may be composed of ten, and the temperature may be controlled for each cylinder, Each temperature can be controlled within 50 to 250 DEG C in consideration of the initiation temperature of the thermal curing initiator. In order to increase the mixing efficiency, the configuration of the segment of the screw can be optimized. For example, the rotation speed of the screw can be adjusted to 150 to 300 rpm. In this case, the supplied materials may be simultaneously melted while being mixed by the rotation of the screw and the temperature of the cylinder.

Next, (1-3) 'a step of spinning the spinning solution to produce a nanofiber web.

In the step (1-3), the nanofiber can be prepared by a known electrospinning apparatus and method using a spinning solution obtained by polymerizing a fiber-forming component, a hydrophilic component, a heat-crystallizing agent and an initiator. In one embodiment, the electrospinning device may be an electrospinning device having a single spinning pack with one spinning nozzle, or a plurality of single spinning packs for mass production, or an electrospinning device with a spinning pack having a plurality of nozzles May be used. Also, in the electrospinning method, wet spinning with dry spinning or external coagulation can be used, and there is no limitation with respect to the method. In another embodiment, when the step (1-2) 'is performed in the cylinder, the spinning solution is mixed and melted by the temperature of the cylinder and the screw rotation, and the spinning solution in which the hardening agent is polymerized is extruded and transferred to the gear pump The polymer solution can be extruded and radiated through the nozzle by the metering gear pump, and preferably the spinning solution can be radiated with the inner coagulating solution.

The nanofiber web formed of nanofibers can be obtained when a spinning solution stirred in the electrospinning device is injected to electrospray on a collector, for example, paper. The specific conditions for the electrospinning are, for example, that the air pressure of the air injection nozzle provided in the nozzle of the spinning pack may be set in the range of 0.01 to 0.2 MPa. If the air pressure is less than 0.01 MPa, it can not contribute to the collection and accumulation. If the air pressure exceeds 0.2 MPa, the cone of the spinneret is hardened and the needle may be clogged and radiation trouble may occur. In addition, when the spinning solution is spinned, the injection rate of the spinning solution per nozzle may be 10 to 30 μl / min. The distance between the tip of the nozzle and the collector may be 10 to 30 cm. However, it is not limited to this, and it can be changed according to purpose.

Next, (2) a step of laminating the nanofiber web and the second support is performed.

When the second support is formed of a low-melting-point compound fiber, the binding through the thermal fusion between the nanofiber web and the second support may be promoted simultaneously through the calendering process.

Further, another hot melt powder or hot melt web may be further interposed to bind the second support and the nanofiber web. In this case, the applied heat may be 60 to 190 ° C, and the pressure may be 0.1 to 10 kgf / cm 2, but is not limited thereto. However, components such as hot melt powder, which are separately added for binding, are frequently melted in the laminating process between the support and the support and between the support and the nanofiber to frequently open the pores, thereby achieving the initial designed filter media flow rate It can not be done. In addition, it may dissolve in the water treatment process, which may cause environmental negative problems, so that it is preferable to bond the second support and the nanofiber web without preferably including them.

The step (2) may be performed by applying at least one of (2-1) heat and pressure to fuse the first support and the second support.

As a specific method of applying heat and / or pressure in the step (2-1), a known method may be adopted, and as a non-limiting example, a conventional calendering process can be used, and the temperature of the applied heat is 70 to 190 < 0 > C. When the calendering process is carried out, it may be carried out a plurality of times, for example, a first calendering followed by a second calendering. At this time, the degree of heat and / or pressure applied in each calendering process may be the same or different. Through the step (2-1), bonding can be performed through thermal fusion between the second support and the first support, and an additional adhesive or adhesive layer can be omitted.

Next, in step (3) according to the present invention, the laminated nanofibrous web and the second support on both sides of the first support so that the second support in the laminated second support and the nanofiber web contact with the first support, Thereby performing a step of assembling.

The step (3) may be performed by applying at least one of (3-1) heat and pressure to fuse the first support and the second support.

As a specific method of applying heat and / or pressure in the step (3-1), a known method may be adopted. As a non-limiting example, a conventional calendering process can be used, and the temperature of the applied heat is 70 to 190 < 0 > C. When the calendering process is carried out, it may be carried out a plurality of times, for example, a first calendering followed by a second calendering. At this time, the degree of heat and / or pressure applied in each calendering process may be the same or different. Through the above step (3-1), bonding can be performed through thermal fusion between the second support and the first support, and an additional adhesive or adhesive layer can be omitted.
