Poly (4-methyl-1-pentene) is a kind of membrane material with excellent properties such as low density and high permeability. This paper reviews the research progress of PMP membranes in recent years from two aspects of preparation methods and applications prospects
focusing on the principles and influencing factors of the main preparation methods of PMP membranes which include thermally induced phase separation (TIPS) method
melt stretching method
solvent evaporation method and so on. The applications of PMP membranes in the fields of extracorporeal membrane oxygenation
membrane contactor
pervaporation and gas separation are reviewed. Finally
the challenges faced by PMP membranes are discussed and prospected.
