Abstract:
A thermoplastic blended potting resin, a blended resin potted membrane, a membrane separation module, a fluid separation device, a method of making and a method of using the membrane separation module and the fluid separation device are described herein. The blended thermoplastic potting resin comprises at least one polar membrane having two end regions and a middle region; and a blended resin comprising a non-polar thermoplastic polymer and a polar thermoplastic polymer; wherein at least one of the two ends regions is coated with the blended potting resin to form a fluid-tight seal between the end regions and the open middle region, and wherein the polar thermoplastic polymer is 1% or greater by weight of blended resin.

Claim (Index 18):
A method of making a blended resin potted membrane, comprising:\n (a) providing at least one membrane constructed of a first material, the at least one membrane having a first end region, a second end region, and a middle region; (b) contacting the at least one of the first end region or the second end region of the at least one membrane with a molten extrusion of the blended potting resin of  claim 1 ,\n wherein the blended potting resin is heated sufficiently above its melting point such that the blended potting resin flows around the at least one polar membrane, and \n wherein the polar thermoplastic polymer is 1% or greater by weight of the total weight percent of the molten blended resin; and \n (c) cooling the molten blended potting resin of  claim 1  to form a blended resin potted membrane.
