Leading national thinking on politics, government & public policy through Open Access research

Strathprints makes available scholarly Open Access content by researchers in the School of Government & Public Policy, based within the Faculty of Humanities & Social Sciences.

Research here is 1st in Scotland for research intensity and spans a wide range of domains. The Department of Politics demonstrates expertise in understanding parties, elections and public opinion, with additional emphases on political economy, institutions and international relations. This international angle is reflected in the European Policies Research Centre (EPRC) which conducts comparative research on public policy. Meanwhile, the Centre for Energy Policy provides independent expertise on energy, working across multidisciplinary groups to shape policy for a low carbon economy.

Abstract

A hollow fibre membrane has an active layer (2) in which elongate polymer molecules (3) are longitudinally aligned essentially parallel to the extrusion direction to thereby define a plurality of spaced free volume cavities (4) which are particularly numerous and are essentially regularly spaced to provide enhanced selectivity when used in gas separation. The hollow fibre membrane is manufactured using a dry/wet phase separation process by spinning a dope composition which is extruded through a spinneret (12) having an annulus or annular orifice (16) together with a bore-forming fluid or coagulant. The dope composition has a power law index of less than 1 (unity) and the bore coagulant has a water activity of less than 1 (unity).
