ABSTRACT:
Process for the production of asymmetrical microporous membranes by double irradiation.
A membrane (5) is exposed to two irradiations, whereof one has an inadequate energy level to pass through the same, whereas the other passes through membrane (5).
The irradiations produce molecular defects, which are attacked or etched in preferred manner by certain chemical agents. Thus, two networks of pores are obtained, one network being of large diameter and of a non-issuing nature (26), the other being smaller (27, 28, 29) and which issue on to the two surfaces (31, 32) of membrane (5).
Application to filtration and sterilization.
