Abstract
In this work, series of PAN membranes were prepared by the combined VIPS/NIPS method using different solvents. These membranes were investigated by using liquid-liquid displacement method for membrane pore size distribution and membrane permeance measurements. Wide range of pores size (30-60 nm) and membrane permeance up to 400 L/m2·h·bar were achieved depending on the casting conditions. It was shown that longer exposure in water vapor leads to higher pore size and at the same time makes membrane less permeable due to low asymmetry of porous structure..
