Influence of Super Hydrophobic Modification on Protective Performance of PTFE Micropore Membrane

Article Preview

Abstract:

Using self - prepared fluorochemical surfactant, PTFE micropore membrane was modified to improve its hydrophobicity. The surface morphology of the membrane was observed by SEM and its Contact angle was determined by. The protective property of the membranes against mustard gas was evaluated using the break-through test. The result shows that, the thesis put forward a novel BC protection idea that through membrane surface modification the poisonous agent can be rolled into liquid spheres and slided away from the membrane surface automatically because of the low surface tension of the membrane, which stands out from the traditional methodology by quick poisonous agent surface expansion and evaporation on the surface of the BC protective material.
