ABSTRACT:
A method is provided of manufacturing a skinless, nylon microporous hollow fiber membrane. The method comprises the steps of providing a nylon polymer dope solution and a quench liquid capable of solidifying and forming micropores in an extruded nylon polymer dope solution to produce a skinless, microporous nylon membrane. The quench liquid is placed into a vessel and a tube is provided which has a top and a bottom outlet. The bottom outlet of the tube is partially submerged in the quench liquid, the tube vertically extending therefrom. A spinneret is provided which has an outlet adjacent the top of the tube. The chemical quench liquid is raised in the tube until it is in substantial contact with the spinneret outlet. The nylon polymer dope solution is extruded in the form of a hollow fiber through the spinneret outlet directly into the quench liquid. Extruded hollow fiber is then passed down through the tube and into the vessel, whereby the quench liquid solidifies and forms micropores in the extruded nylon polymer dope solution to thereby form a skinless nylon microporous holow fiber. The fiber is then redirected in the vessel in a generally horizontal direction through the vessel.
