Abstract:
Frequent oil-spill accidents not only cause serious and long-term damage to marine ecosystems, but also lead to a huge loss of valuable natural resources. To lighten the environmental pollution of oil spills as quickly as possible, an efficient and environment-friendly approach for oil-water separation is highly desirable. Herein, a facile one-pot room-temperature approach was developed for large-scale fabrication of covalent organic framework-coated superhydrophobic sponges (sponges@COFs). The as-prepared sponges@COFs possessed many superior properties, including superhydrophobicity with the water contact angle of approximately 154.3°, large specific surface area (153.059 m2/g), high porosity of the network structures, as well as good mechanical and chemical stability. Taking the aformentioned advantages together, the superhydrophobic sponges showed ultra-high adsorption capacity for oil and various organic solvents. In comparision with its own weight, the adsorption amount of the sponges@COFs for silicone oil was up to 150 times and for toluene was 125 times, respectively. Furthermore, the superhydrophobic sponges also showed fast and highly efficient oil-water separation, outstanding flame retardancy and recyclability. In addition, the sponges@COFs were successfully applied to the high-efficiency removal of oil suspension from industrial waste water, firmly confirming their application prospect in industrial wastewater treatment. © 2021 Elsevier B.V.
