This study shows the feasibility of using electrospinning technique to prepare polytetrafluoroethylene/poly (vinyl alcohol) (PTFE/PVA) nanofibers on PTFE microfiber membrane as substrate. Then, PVA in the fiber membrane was removed by thermal treatment at about 350 °C. Compared to PTFE microfiber substrates, the composite PTFE fiber membranes (CPFMs) have improved filtration efficiency by 70% and water contact angle by 23°. Experimental test data showed that the water contact angle of the sample increased from about 107° to 130°, the filtration efficiency of PM2.5 increased from 44.778% to 98.905%, and the filtration efficiency of PM7.25 increased from 66.655% to 100% due to the electrospun PTFE nanofiber layer. This work demonstrates the potential of CPFMs as a filter for the production of indoor or outdoor dust removal and industrially relevant gas filtration.

Abstract The effect of porosity on the humidification efficiency of countercurrent hollow fiber membrane humidification system was investigated by using numerical simulation method to study polypropylene (PP) porous fiber membrane material. Firstly, the correctness of the numerical model was verified by experiments, and then the influence of porous fiber membrane material on humidification efficiency was further explored by changing the porosity of the model. The simulation results show that the humidification capacity and efficiency of the humidification component increase with the increase of porosity. When the porosity is between 0.35-0.8, the humidification capacity and efficiency increase significantly. However, when the porosity is between 0.8-0.9, although the humidification amount and humidification efficiency value are high, the increment is not obvious, and the porosity of the fiber film is inversely proportional to the support strength of the film, and the larger the porosity is, the shorter the service life of the film material is. Therefore, it is suggested to design the porosity of polypropylene (PP) film material between 0.65 and 0.8. It can not only ensure the high humidification capacity and efficiency of the fiber membrane, but also prolong the service life of the membrane.

The transfer process of heat and water vapor in a porous fiber membrane was investigated through the simulation of a 3D model for optimizing the configuration design. 3D models with different fiber orientations and porosity were constructed by the parameter input method, and the accuracy of the model was validated by the coefficient of determination (R2) between the apparent velocity of the model and the air permeability of the membrane. The permeability of 3D model was used to reflect the discrepancy in fiber orientation of the model. The influences of fiber orientation and porosity on heat and water vapor transfer were surveyed by the coupled physics of heat transfer and dilute substance transfer. Since there was no temperature difference in the entire domain, heat conduction (10−9 W/m2) and moisture convection (10−14 mol·m−2·s−1) were faint in the model. With the diffusion of water vapor in the moisture, the heat convection flux and water vapor diffusion flux gradually decreased and reached equilibrium. When the permeability was increased by adjusting the fiber orientation (from 1.002 to 1.200 m2), the heat convection flux and water vapor diffusion flux followed a similar growth pattern due to the coupling effect of heat transfer and water vapor transfer. The R2 for the heat convection flux and water vapor transmission rate of the simulations and experiments with different porosity (44.87, 47.64 and 50.15%) were 0.999 and 0.923, respectively, which demonstrated the validation of the simulation in heat and water vapor transfer.

Dutch-belted 1 to 2.5 kg anesthetized rabbits were exposed to either xenon or argon laser light administered in a broad band, designed to cover large areas of the retina. For laser exposure, the pupil was dilated with atropine sulfate 1% and pheny lephrine 10%. All of the laser generated power was within a band centered at 5145.0 Anstroms. Established threshold for 4 hour exposures to laser irradiation are in the order of 25-35 microwatts/cm2. Animals examined for ultrastructural changes received 4 hour threshold doses. These animals exhibited ERG, opthalmascopic, and histological changes consistent with threshold damage.One month following exposure the rabbits were killed with pentobarbitol. The eyes were immediately enucleated and dissected while bathed in 3% phosphate buffered gluteraldehyde.
