Popis: This paper prepared polyamide (PA)/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) thin-film composite hollow fiber membranes via interfacial polymerization by using triethylenetetramine (TETA) and trimesoyl chloride (TMC) as the monomers and asymmetric PAN hollow fiber membrane as the substrate. The effect of hydrolysis of asymmetric PAN hollow fiber membranes on the chemical properties was investigated. The results showed that the chemical properties of PAN hollow fiber membranes were affected by hydrolysis. Moreover, the effects of PA thin film polymerized onto the inner and outer surface of asymmetric PAN hollow fiber membranes on pervaporation performances were also investigated. The results also revealed that the interfacial polymerized PA/PAN composite hollow fiber membranes that were polymerized onto the outer surface of asymmetric PAN hollow fiber membranes can be used in the pervaporation of aqueous alcohol solution.
