Info and sources for hydrophobic membrane

Joe

I'm interested in exploring the possibilties of making a meg scrubber protected with a hydrophobic membrane.

Does anyone have any information on this subject and know where and what type of membrane to buy?

I know the Cis scrubber used a membrane and I see the Ouroboros has something which they say can be used to retrofit their existing canisters.

Thanks.

Unless you go radial you would probably get a high wob.

There are some companies that make them like dupont.

Also they are widely found on baby diapers....

There is a very nice set of plans for a Meg radial scrubber already posted on here. That would make a good starting point.

WOB on the Meg is pretty good with the Axial so even with additions to or modifications of that design, if the membrane was selected properly the WOB might be acceptable.

I had a link to a company that sold the stuff by the sheet and had staff engineers to recommend an appropriate product but I seem to have lost it .

I also know that it is widely used in all sorts of medical applications from breathing and anasthesia apparatus to dialysis and blood working machines as well as on diapers and horse blankets.

Thanks for your input. I'll try searching Dupont.
