摘要
Pervaporation membranes were made by solution blending of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) and sodium alginate (SA). Accordingly, five different blends with PVA:SA weight ratio of 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 20:80 and 10:90 designated as PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4 and PS5, respectively, were prepared. Each of these blends was crosslinked with 2,4 and 6 wt% glutaraldehyde and the resulting fifteen (5 x 3) membranes were used for pervaporative separation of 90 wt% dioxane in water. The membranes made from PS4 and PS5 were not stable during pervaporation experiments. Among the stable membranes PS3 membrane crosslinked with 2 wt% glutaraldehyde showed the best results for flux and selectivity. Thus, it was filled with nano size sodium montmorillonite filler and used for separation of dioxane-water mixtures over the entire concentration range of 80-99.5 wt% dioxane in water. The membranes were also characterized by mechanical properties, FTIR, SEM, DTA-TGA and XRD.
