Abstract:
A process for producing lactam by Beckmann rearrangement of cycloalkanone oxime. A cycloalkanone oxime is contacted at an elevated temperature, with sulfate or phosphate of metal ions selected from manganese, ferrous, ferric, cobalt, nickel, zinc and cadmium in the presence of at least one mole of hydrogen chloride per mole of the cycloalkanone oxime. Lactam can be recovered from the reaction mixture without producing ammonium sulfate as a by-product.
Abstract:
A membrane for microfiltration, ultrafiltration or dialysis comprises a methyl methacrylate copolymer containing about 0.5 to 10 mol % of a monomer having sulfonate groups, and a methyl methacrylate copolymer containing about 0.5 to 10 mol % of a monomer having quaternary nitrogen-containing groups. It is manufactured by mixing those copolymers, dissolving the mixture in a solvent such as dimethylsulfoxide or dimethylformamide, and forming a membrane from a solution of the copolymers by casting or spinning. The membrane is particularly suitable for use in the purification of blood, and its most preferable form is hollow fibers. A method of preparing hollow fibers comprises extruding the copolymer solution through a spinneret having an annular orifice defined by a thin central tube while a liquid or gas is being injected into the central tube, and coagulating the extrusion product.
Abstract:
Respective hollow fiber membranes suitable for use in removing undesired contaminants from blood, in particular in an artificial kidney, have: (1) per membrane area of 1.6 m , in vitro clearances for urea and phosphorus respectively of ≥ 195, and ≥ 180, ml/min, a beta 2-microglobulin clearance ≥ 44 ml/min and an albumin permeability ≤ 0.5%; (2) an albumin permeability ≤ 1.5% and an overall mass transfer coefficient Ko ≥ 0.0012 cm/min; and (3) a vitamin B12 dialyzance of ≥ 135 ml/min and an albumin permeability ≤ 3%. The membranes can be prepared by spinning hollow fibers from a spinning solution comprising a polysulfone, a hydrophilic polymer, a solvent and water, the spinning solution having a viscosity x at 30 DEG C of 25-130 poise and a quantity y % of water given by: The membranes can be incorporated into a hemodialyzer module by a method in which they are preimpregnated with a wetting agent, thereafter kept separate from one another by spacers and then inserted in the module.
