V mikrobioreaktorjih moramo pogosto zagotavljati ustrezne koncentracije
raztopljenega kisika, ki je nujen za njihovo delovanje oz. ustrezen potek biokemijskih
reakcij. Z vgradnjo polprepustnih membran lahko omogočimo zelo učinkovit in
kontinuiran transport kisika v mikroreaktorjih iz neprepustnih materialov. Med materiali
za izdelavo tovrstnih membran prevladuje polidimetilsiloksan (PDMS). Na prepustnost
membrane lahko vplivajo različni procesni parametri pri njeni sintezi, in sicer masni
delež zamreževalca v osnovni matrici elastomera, debelina nanosa, temperatura in čas
polimerizacije ter posledično tudi končna debelina PDMS membrane. V pričujočem
delu smo pri različnih pogojih sintetizirali več različnih PDMS membran, ki smo jih
vgradili v mikroreaktorje. Primerjali smo njihovo učinkovitost za prepustnost kisika in
povezavo tega parametra s pogoji sinteze. Ugotovili smo, da se membrane z večjo
nanašalno debelino lažje odstrani s površine materiala, na katerega so bile nanašene
pred polimerizacijo in prav tako se jih lažje vgradi v mikroreaktor. Membranam smo
tudi določili končno debelino in Youngov modul. Ugotovili smo, da se debelina
membrane med polimerizacijo zmanjša za polovico njene nanašalne debeline in da so
membrane, polimerizirane pri krajših časih, bolj elastične. PDMS membrane smo
vgradili v mikroreaktorje, kjer smo preučevali koncentracijo raztopljenega kisika oz.
kako dobro je membrana prepustna za kisik.. Membrane, sintetizirane pod različnimi
pogoji, smo med seboj primerjali. Rezultati analize koncentracije raztopljenega kisika
so pokazali, da ima na prepustnost kisika največji vpliv čas polimerizacije, nekoliko
manj pa delež zamreževalca in temperatura polimerizacije. Hkrati smo razvili tudi
matematični model oz. simulacijo, ki napoveduje koncentracijski profil kisika po
dolžini in globini mikroreaktorja, na koncu pa rezultate primerjali z eksperimentalnimi
podatki, ki so se med seboj dobro ujemali in tako potrdili učinkovitost sintetiziranih
PDMS membran za prepustnost kisika.

Oxygen transfer description in a microreactor with a membrane |
Sekundarni povzetek: |
In microbioreactors we must often provide adequate concentrations of dissolved
oxygen, which is necessary for their functioning or appropriate course of biochemical
reactions. By installing semi-permeable membranes, we can enable very efficient and
continuous transport of oxygen into microreactors made of impermeable materials.
Polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) predominates among the materials used to make such
membranes. However, the permeability of the membrane can be affected by various
process parameters in its synthesis, namely the mass fraction of crosslinker in the base
matrix of elastomer, thickness of application, polymerization temperature and time and
consequently the final thickness of PDMS membrane. In the present work, several
different PDMS membranes were synthesized under different conditions and
incorporated into microreactors. We compared their efficiency for oxygen permeability
and the association of this parameter with the synthesis conditions. We found that
membranes with greater application thickness are easier to remove from the surface of
the material to which they were applied before polymerization and are also easier to
incorporate into the microreactor. We also determined the final thickness and Young’s
modulus for the membranes. We found that the membrane thickness decreases by half
its application thickness during polymerization and that membranes polymerized at
shorter times are more elastic. PDMS membranes were installed in microreactors, where
the concentration of dissolved oxygen was studied or how well the membrane is
permeable to oxygen. Membranes synthesized under different conditions were
compared with each other. The results of the analysis of the dissolved oxygen
concentration showed that the polymerization time has the greatest influence on the
oxygen permeability, and to a lesser extent the crosslinker content and the
polymerization temperature. At the same time, we also developed a mathematical model
or a simulation predicting the oxygen concentration profile along the length and depth
of the microreactor and comparing the results with experimental data that matched well
and thus confirmed the efficiency of the synthesized PDMS membranes for oxygen
permeability. |
