Effect of fabrication parameters on physical properties of metakaolin-based ceramic hollow fibre membrane (CHFM)
Ceramic hollow fibre membranes (CHFMs) are known to have superior characteristics including excellent thermal, mechanical, and chemical stability. Major limitations include their high cost and brittleness, traits which have hindered the commercial adoption of this technology. This paper studies the...

description |
Ceramic hollow fibre membranes (CHFMs) are known to have superior characteristics
including excellent thermal, mechanical, and chemical stability. Major limitations include
their high cost and brittleness, traits which have hindered the commercial adoption of this
technology. This paper studies the effects of three main fabrication parameters, i.e. ceramic content, bore fluid flowrate, and sintering temperature, on morphology and mechanical
strength of low-cost CHFM from a well-known material in producing high strength concrete,
i.e. metakaolin. The novel CHFM from metakaolin was prepared via a combined phase
inversion and sintering technique. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and three-point
bending strength were employed to examine the hollow fibre’s morphology and mechanical
strength. Response surface methodology (RSM) based on historical data design (HDD) was
used to further verify experimental and predicted values for mechanical strength in terms of
the three operating parameters mentioned above. The highest mechanical strength of 225.8
MPa was obtained with 37.5 wt.% metakaolin content and 3mL/min of BF flowrate at a
sintering temperature of 1500°C. The desirability of this work is 0.985, indicating that RSM
is a suitable approach to validate the effects of fabrication parameters on the mechanical
strength of metakaolin-based CHFM. |
