Abstract
The intrusion of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) top layers in Zirfon(R) (polys ulfone filled with zirconium oxide) and polyvinylidenefluoride (PVDF) asymm etric support layers is studied. Parameters such as the porosity of the sup port, the concentration of the coating solution, the presence of additives in the support during coating and pre-wetting of the supports are investiga ted with spectroscopical techniques, thermal analysis and pervaporation.
