Abstract

Une membrane pour un diffuseur d'air selon la présente invention présente une structure multicouche ou monocouche comprenant deux couches de caoutchouc de dureté différente, et peut ainsi générer des microbulles d'air dont la taille ne dépasse pas 1 mm, possède une excellente efficacité de transfert d'oxygène avec laquelle l'oxygène de l'air est dissous dans les eaux usées, et renforce la durabilité d'une fente pour empêcher les parties qui sont soumises à une pression d'air élevée de se déchirer facilement, ce qui a pour effet de retarder le remplacement du produit. En outre, le poinçonnage de trous d'air minuscules est possible de telle sorte que la déformation permanente par compression, qui est un défaut des membranes à base d'EPDM, est considérablement atténuée lorsque l'entrée d'air est interrompue, et la membrane a donc pour effet d'empêcher le reflux des eaux usées dans le diffuseur à membrane.
