✦ Synopsis


The cloud point curves for polysulfone (PSf)/solvent/water systems were determined by a titration method. A small amount of water was needed to induce liquid-liquid demixing and the temperature effect was small. From numerical calculations, it was found that the binary interaction parameters for the PSf/solvent/water system enlarges the homogeneous region in the phase diagram with a smaller nonsolvent-polymer interaction parameter x 13 , a greater nonsolvent-solvent interaction parameter x 12 , and a smaller solvent-polymer interaction parameter x 23 and the effect of polymer molecular weight was negligible except in the range of low molecular weight. The phase diagrams, calculated with constant x 12 that was chosen from the concentration-dependent interaction parameter g 12 value of the concentration range, were similar to the results obtained with g 12 . The slope of the tie lines indicated that demixing of the ternary system occurred at relatively similar nonsolvent concentration in both phases. A value of 2.7 for the water-PSf interaction parameter was obtained by fitting the experimental cloud point curve with the calculated binodal lines.

To construct a phase diagram of the polysulfone (PSF)/polyethersulfone (PES)/N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP)/water quaternary system, cloud point measurements were carried out by a titration method. The miscible region in the PSF/PES/ NMP/water quaternary system was narrow compared to the PSF/NMP/water

In general liquid-liquid demixing processes are responsible for the porous morphology of membranes obtained by immersion precipitation. For rapidly crystallizing polymers, solid-liquid demixing processes also generate porous morphologies. In this study, the interference of both phase transitions has
