Abstract: The present invention relates to a medical nonwoven fabric comprising gelable cellulose derivative short-cut fibers as prepared by the paper making process, a preparation method thereof, and an adhesion prevention barrier using the same. The present invention provides a single phase of medical nonwoven fabric comprising gelable cellulose derivative short-cut fibers, to induce capillary action of micropores formed between the fibers and thereby control the gelation time, and provides a composite nonwoven fabric formed by laminating a nonwoven fabric layer comprising a different kind of biodegradable polymer material not susceptible to gelation on the single-phase of medical nonwoven fabric comprising gelable cellulose derivative short-cut fibers, thereby improving dimensional stability and convenience of surgical procedure. The present invention further provides a dyed medical nonwoven fabric to improve visibility, allowing easiness of recognizing the placement or location of the medical nonwoven fabric.

Abstract: Disclosed is a polymer membrane for a battery including a porous support including a fiber including a core including a high melting-point polymer; and a sheath including a low melting-point polymer surrounding the core, and a method of preparing the same.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are a polyolefin microporous membrane of which surface is modified by a hydrophilic polymer, a surface modification method thereof and a lithium ion polymer battery including the surface-modified polyolefin microporous membrane as a separator. The polyolefin microporous membrane of which surface is modified by a hydrophilic polymer minimizes membrane distortion by employing plasma-induced coating method and also increase the membrane's mechanical strength and heat resistance. In addition, the polyolefin microporous membrane enhances the ability of impregnating an electrolyte solution by increasing polarity and surface energy on its surface through modification to hydrophilic surface, and enhances the adhesion between a separator and an electrode, between a separator and an electrolyte solution or gel polymer electrolytes.
