BEST MODE

(14) Hereinafter, embodiments of the present disclosure will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

(15) According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the gas filter includes an adsorptive membrane for adsorbing foreign substances contained in a gas to be passed therethrough. The adsorptive membrane includes an adsorptive member formed by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers, so that ionic foreign substances may be adsorbed, and the adsorptive membrane has a large number of pores so that foreign substances larger than the pore size may be physically filtered to thus restrain the foreign substances in the adsorptive membrane to then be adsorbed.

(16) According to some embodiments of the present disclosure, the gas filter includes an adsorptive membrane to be described later and can be made into a gas filter having a predetermined shape by giving a structural characteristic to the adsorptive membrane in order to maximize the flow rate of the gas, or can be made into a gas filter which can be manufactured by fixing the adsorptive membrane to a case member having a shape capable of preserving the flow rate.

(17) That is, as shown in FIG. 1, the gas filter 1000 is formed into a corrugated structure in an exemplary shape that maximizes the flow rate by increasing a surface area of contact of the gas per unit area.

(18) The gas filter 1000 has a corrugated structure formed by molding a flat plate-shaped adsorptive membrane 100, and is structurally characterized in that the flat plate-shaped adsorptive membrane 100 has a folded shape in which corrugations are folded many times.

(19) Therefore, since the large-sized flat plate-shaped adsorptive membrane 100 can be realized into a small-sized gas filter 1000 by a corrugated structure and can be positioned on the small-area gas flow path, a surface area through which the gas contacts and passes per unit area is increased, so that the performance of purifying the gas by the adsorption principle in the adsorptive membrane 100 can be improved and the flow rate of the gas can be increased.

(20) Here, the adsorptive membrane 100 includes: a support member 110 having a plurality of first pores; and an adsorptive member 120 which is stacked on the support member 110 and formed with a plurality of second pores and which is formed by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances.

(21) Referring to FIG. 2, in some embodiments of the present invention, a gas filter can be realized by forming a plurality of projections on a flat plate-shaped adsorptive membrane. These projections are intended to increase a contact surface area with the gas.

(22) As shown in FIG. 3A, the projections 101a of the gas filter preferably has a wave shape in which the width W1 of the lower portion is larger than the width W2 of the upper portion. A cross-sectional shape of crosssecting the projection 101a in the vertical direction has a triangle (the projection 101b in FIG. 3B), a quadrangle, or a semicircle.

(23) As described above, when the gas filter is implemented solely by the adsorptive membrane, the strength of the adsorptive membrane is weak, and thus when a gas at a high rate and a large flow rate is delivered to the adsorptive membrane, the adsorptive membrane is deformed or damaged, and thus there is a possibility of reducing reliability.

(24) Accordingly, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, a gas filter including a strength reinforcing member can be realized. That is, as shown in FIG. 4A, the strength reinforcing member 1100 may be fixed to one surface of the adsorptive membrane 100, or as shown in FIG. 4B, the strength reinforcing members 1101 and 1102 may be fixed on one surface and the other surface of the adsorptive membrane 100.

(25) In this case, it is preferable that the strength reinforcing members 1100, 1101, and 1102 have a corrugated structure having the same shape as the adsorptive membrane 100 or a flat plate-shaped structure having a plurality of projections formed thereon. Passages through which gas passes are provided in the strength reinforcing members 1100, 1101, and 1102.

(26) Such strength reinforcing members 1100, 1101, and 1102 can be made of a metal material or a non-metallic material. Here, as the non-metallic material, for example, plastic that can be molded can be used.

(27) Referring to FIGS. 5A and 5B, the strength reinforcing member can be realized into a strength reinforcing members 1100a in which a plurality of throughholes 1101a1 functioning as passages for gas passage are regularly arranged (FIG. 5A), or as shown in FIG. 5B, it can be realized into a strength reinforcing member 1100b having a mesh structure enabling a smooth gas passage. Here, the shapes of the throughholes 1101a1 can be variously designed.

(28) Referring to FIG. 6, the adsorptive membrane 100 applied to the gas filter according to the first embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a support member 110 having a plurality of first pores; and an adsorptive member 120 which is stacked on the support member 110 and has a plurality of second pores formed therein, and which is made by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances.

(29) The adsorptive membrane 100 absorbs and filters ionic foreign substances by the ion exchange nanofibers of the adsorption member 120 and physically filters the foreign substances (for example, dirt, dust, debris, particles, etc.) having a size larger than the pore size by the first pores of the support member 110 and the second pores of the adsorptive member 120, to thus enhance the removal efficiency of the foreign substances.

(30) In other words, as shown in FIG. 7, when the gas is passed through the adsorptive membrane 100, the ionic foreign substances A contained in the gas are adsorbed by the ion exchange nanofibers 121 of the adsorptive member 120, and the large-size foreign substances B included in the gas do not pass through the second pores 122 of the adsorptive member 120 and are trapped inside the adsorptive member 120. As a result, the foreign substances A and B are restrained in the adsorption state (the state that the foreign substances cannot escape from and stick to the inside of the adsorptive member 120) in the adsorptive membrane 100, and thus the filtering performance of the adsorptive membrane 100 according to some embodiments of the present disclosure may be increased.

(31) Here, the second pores 122 of the adsorptive member 120 can adsorb and filter nano-scale fine contaminants contained in the gas as micropores. That is, the adsorptive member 120 made of nanofibers performs adsorption by surface filtration on the surface layer and by deep filtration on the inner layer.

(32) Therefore, the adsorptive membrane applied to the gas filter according to an embodiment of the present disclosure is not a non-porous membrane structure, and is realized by laminating an adsorptive member having a plurality of pores made by nanofibers on a support member having a plurality of pores, to thereby provide some advantages of enhancing a filtering performance while preserving the flow rate.

(33) In addition, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the large-size foreign substances B contained in the gas do not pass through even the first pores of the support member 110 but are filtered therethrough. Here, the first pore size of the support member 110 is preferably larger than the second pore size 122 of the adsorptive member 120.

(34) The support member 110 serves as a passageway for passing the gas through the plurality of first pores and serves as a support layer for supporting the adsorptive member 120 to maintain the flat plate shape. Here, the support member 110 is preferably a nonwoven fabric or a woven fabric.

(35) The usable nonwoven fabric may be any one of a melt-blown nonwoven fabric, a spun bond nonwoven fabric, a thermal bond nonwoven fabric, a chemical bond nonwoven fabric, and a wet-laid nonwoven fabric. The fiber diameter of the nonwoven fabric may be 40 m to 50 m, and the pore size thereof may be 100 m or more.

(36) In addition, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, since the adsorptive member 120 made by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers has poor handleability and strength, the adsorptive member 120 and the support member 110 are laminated to thereby implement an adsorptive membrane having excellent handleability and strength.

(37) Meanwhile, since the adsorptive member 120 made by accumulating the ion exchange nanofibers is expensive, implementing of the adsorptive membrane 100 in some embodiments of the present disclosure only by using the sole adsorptive member 120, requires a lot of manufacturing cost. Therefore, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, it is possible to reduce the manufacturing cost by stacking the supporting member, which is much cheaper than the adsorptive member 120 made by accumulating the ion exchange nanofibers, on the adsorptive member 120. In this case, the expensive adsorptive member 120 is designed to be thin and the low-priced support member 110 is designed to be thick, so that the manufacturing cost can be optimized at low cost.

(38) In some embodiments of the present disclosure, an ion exchange solution is electrospun to discharge ion exchange nanofibers to the support member, and the discharged ion exchange nanofibers are accumulated in the support member 110 to produce the adsorptive member 120.

(39) The ion exchange solution can be defined as a solution synthesized by a synthesis process such as bulk polymerization of a polymer, a solvent and ion exchange functional groups.

(40) Since the ion exchange functional groups are contained in the ion exchange nanofibers, ionic foreign substances such as heavy metals contained in the gas passing through the adsorptive membrane 100 are exchanged by substitution and adsorbed to the ion exchange functional groups. As a result, the ionic foreign substances are adsorbed to the ion exchange nanofibers by the ion exchange functional groups.

(41) For example, when the ion exchange functional groups are SO.sub.3H, and/or NH.sub.4CH.sub.3, the ionic foreign substances (for example, ionic heavy metal positive ions or heavy metal negative ions) contained in water are replaced with H.sup.+ and/or CH.sub.3.sup.+ by substitution, and adsorbed to the ion exchange functional groups.

(42) Here, the ion exchange functional groups include a cation exchange functional group selected from a sulfonic acid group, a phosphoric acid group, a phosphonic group, a phosphonic group, a carboxylic acid group, an arsonic group, a selenonic group, an iminodiacetic acid group and a phosphoric acid ester group; or an anion exchange functional group selected from a quaternary ammonium group, a tertiary amino group, a primary amino group, an imine group, a tertiary sulfonium group, a phosphonium group, a pyridyl group, a carbazolyl group and an imidazolyl group.

(43) Here, the polymer is a resin that is capable of being electrospun, capable of being dissolved in an organic solvent for electrospinning, and capable of forming nanofibers by electrospinning, but is not particularly limited thereto. For example, the polymer material may include: polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF), poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene), perfluoropolymers, polyvinyl chloride or polyvinylidene chloride, and co-polymers thereof; polyethylene glycol derivatives containing polyethylene glycol dialkylether and polyethylene glycol dialkyl ester; polyoxide containing poly (oxymethylene-oligo-oxyethylene), polyethylene oxide and polypropylene oxide; polyacrylonitrile co-polymers containing polyvinyl acetate, poly (vinyl pyrrolidone-vinyl acetate), polystyrene, polystyrene acrylonitrile co-polymers, polyacrylonitrile (PAN), and polyacrylonitrile methyl methacrylate co-polymers; and polymethyl methacrylate and polymethyl methacrylate co-polymers, and a mixture thereof.

(44) In addition, examples of the usable polymer may include: aromatic polyester such as polyamide, polyimide, polyamide-imide, poly (meta-phenylene iso-phthalamide), polysulfone, polyether ketone, polyethylene terephthalate, polytrimethylene terephthalate, and polyethylene naphthalate; polyphosphazenes such as polytetrafluoroethylene, polydiphenoxy phosphazene, and poly {bis [2-(2-methoxyethoxy) phosphazene]}; polyurethane co-polymers including polyurethane and polyether urethane; cellulose acetate, cellulose acetate butylrate, cellulose acetate propionate, and the like.

(45) As the polymer preferable for the adsorptive member, PAN, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF), polyester sulfone (PES) and polystyrene (PS) may be used alone or a mixture of polyvinylidene fluoride (PVdF) and polyacrylonitrile (PAN), or a mixture of PVDF and PES, and a mixture of PVdF and thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU) may be used.

(46) As the solvent, a mono-component solvent such as dimethylformamide (DMF) can be used. However, when a two-component solvent is used, it is preferable to use a two-component solvent in which a high boiling point (BP) solvent and a low boiling point (BP) solvent are mixed with each other.

(47) As described above, a plurality of ultrafine pores (i.e., second pores) are formed between the ion exchange nanofibers that are accumulated randomly in the adsorptive member 120 which is formed by accumulating the ion exchange nanofibers in the support member 110. The ultrafine pore size is preferably 3 m or less.

(48) The diameter of each of the ion exchange nanofibers is preferably in the range of 0.1 m to 3.0 m, and the thickness of the adsorptive member 120 is freely adjusted according to a spinning time from an electrospinning apparatus. The pore size is determined according to the thickness of the adsorptive member 120.

(49) The ion exchange nanofibers can be defined as having ion exchange functional groups having ion exchange ability on the surface thereof. Depending on the ions exchanged in the ion exchange functional groups, the ion exchange nanofibers can be cation exchange nanofibers or anion exchange nanofibers.

(50) The adsorptive member 120 formed by accumulating the ion exchange nanofibers is a web structure of ion exchange nanofibers. The web is ultra-thin, ultra-light in weight, and large in specific surface area.

(51) In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the ion exchange nanofibers are accumulated in the support member 110 by electrospinning the ion exchange nanofibers to form the adsorptive member 120, thereby increasing a coupling force between the support member 110 and the absorptive member 120. Accordingly, there is an advantage that the adsorptive member 120 can be prevented from being peeled off from the support member 110 by external force.

(52) In other words, as shown in FIG. 8, the ion exchange nanofibers 121 discharged from a spinning nozzle 210 of the electrospinning apparatus are stacked on the supporting member 110, and the stacked ion exchange nanofibers 121 are accumulated, and thus a web-shaped adsorptive member 120 is formed.

(53) FIGS. 9 to 12 are cross-sectional views of the adsorptive membrane applied to the gas filter according to the second to fifth embodiments of the present disclosure, respectively.

(54) Referring to FIG. 9, an adsorptive membrane applied to a gas filter according to the second embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a support member 110 having a plurality of first pores; a first adsorptive member 120a stacked on an upper surface of the support member 110 and having a plurality of second pores formed therein and made by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances; and a second adsorptive member 120b stacked on a lower surface of the support member 110 and having a plurality of third pores formed therein and made by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances.

(55) The adsorptive membrane applied in a gas filter according to the second embodiment is configured to include first and second adsorptive members 120a and 120b that are laminated on both sides of the support member 110 to adsorb the ionic foreign substances not adsorbed by the first adsorption member 120a, and foreign substances having pore sizes larger than the pore sizes of the third pores by the second adsorptive member 120b, thereby increasing the adsorption efficiency of foreign substances.

(56) Here, the first pore size may be designed to be the largest, the second pore size may be designed to have an intermediate size between the first pore size and the third pore size, and the third pore size may be designed to be the smallest.

(57) Referring to FIG. 10, an adsorptive membrane applied to a gas filter according to the third embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a support member 110 having a plurality of first pores; a first adsorptive member 120c stacked on an upper surface of the support member 110 and having a plurality of second pores formed therein and made by accumulating first ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances; and a second adsorptive member 120d stacked on an upper surface of the first adsorptive member 120c and having a plurality of third pores formed therein and made by accumulating second ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances.

(58) The first ion exchange nanofibers of the first adsorptive member 120c may be cation exchange nanofibers or anion exchange nanofibers, and the second ion exchange nanofibers of the second adsorptive member 120d may be nanofibers that exchange ions of opposite polarity to the first ion exchange nanofibers. That is, when the first ion exchange nanofibers are cation exchange nanofibers, the second ion exchange nanofibers are anion exchange nanofibers.

(59) Therefore, the adsorptive membrane applied in a gas filter according to the third embodiment is advantageous in that both the cation heavy metal and anion heavy metal contained in the passing gas can be adsorbed by the first and second adsorptive members 120c and 120d.

(60) Referring to FIG. 11, an adsorptive membrane applied to a gas filter according to the fourth embodiment of the present disclosure includes: a support member 110 having a plurality of first pores; a first adsorptive member 120 stacked on an upper surface of the support member 110 and having a plurality of second pores formed therein and made by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers for adsorbing foreign substances; and a second adsorptive member 130 stacked on an upper surface of the first adsorptive member 120 and having a plurality of third pores formed therein and made by accumulating nanofibers containing an antibacterial substance.

(61) The adsorptive membrane applied in the gas filter according to the fourth embodiment can adsorb ionic foreign substances by the ion exchange nanofibers of the first adsorptive member 120 and can have the antibacterial property by the nanofibers containing the antibacterial substance of the second adsorptive member 130.

(62) Here, the second and third pore sizes are preferably designed to be smaller than the first pore size.

(63) The adsorptive membrane can also physically filter and adsorb foreign substances having a size larger than the pore size in each of the first to third pores.

(64) Here, the antibacterial substances are preferably silver nanomaterials. Here, silver nanomaterials are silver (Ag) salts such as silver nitrate (AgNO.sub.3), silver sulfate (Ag.sub.2SO.sub.4), and silver chloride (AgCl).

(65) In some embodiments of the present disclosure, a silver nanomaterial is dissolved in an organic solvent together with a fiber formability polymer material to prepare a spinning solution, and the spinning solution is electrospun to obtain a second adsorptive member 130 of a nanofiber web structure formed by accumulating nanofibers containing an antibacterial substance.

(66) In the adsorptive membrane applied in a gas filter according to the fifth embodiment of the present disclosure may further include a nanofiber web, which has a plurality of pores, and which is made by accumulating nanofibers containing dopamine having a functional group for adsorbing foreign substances. Here, the nanofiber web containing dopamine is preferably laminated on the adsorptive member.

(67) For example, as shown in FIG. 12, the adsorptive membrane may be implemented by interposing a nanofiber web 150 between the first and second adsorptive members 120a and 120b, in which the nanofiber web 150 is made by accumulating nanofibers having a plurality of pores formed and containing dopamine, to which a functional group capable of adsorbing foreign substances is attached.

(68) Here, the first and second adsorptive members 120a and 120b are adsorptive members formed by accumulating ion exchange nanofibers having a plurality of pores and adsorbing foreign substances, and the nanofiber web 150 is produced by electrospinning a spinning solution which is made by mixing a dopamine monomer or polymer, a solvent and a polymer substance.

(69) Dopamine (i.e. 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalamine) has a structure in which NH.sub.2 and OH are bonded to a benzene ring.

(70) The functional groups attached to the dopamine contained in the nanofibers can be formed by a post-treatment such as UV irradiation, plasma treatment, acid treatment, and base treatment after forming a nanofiber web containing a dopamine monomer or polymer. Finally, the nanofiber web containing dopamine is in a state where the functional group is attached to the nanofiber.

(71) Here, the functional group can function as a negative charge functional group such as SO.sub.3H.sup. or a positive charge functional group such as NH.sub.4.sup.+ to adsorb heavy metals, bacteria and viruses. Thus, the adsorptive membrane applied in a gas filter according to the fifth embodiment of the present disclosure can filter heavy metals, bacteria and viruses contained in the passing gas and adsorb the filtered heavy metals, bacteria and viruses inside the adsorptive membrane.

(72) FIG. 13 is a schematic plan view for explaining a state in which a silver yarn stitching process is applied on an adsorptive membrane applied to a gas filter according to an embodiment of the present disclosure.

(73) According to the embodiments of the present disclosure, the adsorptive membrane including the support member can be subjected to a silver yarn stitching process to realize an adsorptive membrane having antimicrobial properties by the stitched silver yarn. Here, the silver yarn stitching process may be performed on one or both of the support member and the adsorptive member of the adsorptive membrane.

(74) Here, since the adsorptive member of the adsorptive membrane has a relatively lower strength than the support member, if the silver yarn is stitched to the adsorptive member, damage to the adsorptive member may be caused by the stitched silver yarn.

(75) Meanwhile, the support member has a strength enough to withstand the silver yarn stitching process, thereby stitching the silver yarn 310 on the support member 110, as shown in FIG. 13. In this case, it is preferable that the silver yarn 310 is stitched in a lattice pattern, but it is not limited thereto.

(76) The silver yarn is a thread made of silver. The silver yarn stitched to the support member 110 can kill the bacteria contained in the passing gas, and the adsorptive membrane can have a strong antibacterial property.

(77) Meanwhile, in some embodiments of the present disclosure, the nanofibers of the adsorptive member of the adsorptive membrane of the above-described embodiments may be coated with an oil such as glycerin.

(78) Since the adsorptive member has a web shape in which ion exchange nanofibers are accumulated, the nanofibers are coated with oil in order to activate adsorption of ion exchange functional groups present on the surfaces of ion exchange nanofibers, to thereby adsorb ionic foreign substances by the oil, and then by the exchange functional groups.

(79) While the present invention has been particularly shown and described with reference to exemplary embodiments thereof, by way of illustration and example only, it is clearly understood that the present invention is not to be construed as limiting the present invention, and various changes and modifications may be made by those skilled in the art within the protective scope of the invention without departing off the spirit of the present invention.

INDUSTRIAL APPLICABILITY

(80) The present disclosure is applicable to a gas filter which maximizes the flow rate of gas, prevents deformation or damage of the adsorptive membrane, improves the adsorption efficiency, and obtains excellent reliability.
