Abstract
The biocompatibility and the mechanism of structure formation on regenerated cellulose hollow fiber membranes for hemodialysis are discussed. The biocompatibility can be improved by grafting polyethylene glycol chains to hydroxyl groups of regenerated cellulose. The coagulation process of cuprammonium cellulose solution is mainly dominated by the interfacial potential at the interface between cellulose solution and coagulant solution. And the performance of solute permeation of the membrane can be controlled through the coagulation process of cellulose solution. Consequently we have achieved the biocompatible and high permeable cellulose membrane.
