Abstract:
Over-exploitation of fossil energy has led to the formation of enormous amounts of oily wastewater, which is increasingly polluting the environment of water bodies. The Ti3C2Tx-modified separation ma-terial is limited by surface roughness and surface chemical composition, and the permeation flux de-creases significantly during continuous testing. In this study, silver-loaded polydopamine nanospheres (nano-AgPNPs) as antioxidants were prepared by in-situ reduction from Ag+ ions and polydopamine nanospheres, and then they self-assembled with Ti3C2Tx nanosheets to obtain hierarchical micro-nano structural nano-AgPNPs modified Ti3C2Tx [(AgPNPs)xT ( x = 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1)]. Because of their strong reduction properties, nano-AgPNPs antioxidants can effectively protect the active edges of Ti3C2Tx from dissolved oxygen, and greatly improve the oxidation resistance of Ti3C2Tx nanosheets, with no signif-icant changes in morphology and physical phase after long-term placement. (AgPNPs)xT formed un-derwater oleophobic interfaces with the hierarchical structure on polyurethane (PU) sponge to prepare (AgPNPs)xT@PU separation sponges. Among them, (AgPNPs)0.5T@PU sponge showed the highest compre-hensive performance with separation efficiency higher than 99.6% for various oil-water mixtures, espe-cially high-throughput and permeation flux up to 247,787 L m-2 h-1 for cyclohexane-water mixtures. In addition, nano-AgPNPs greatly broadened the layer spacing of Ti3C2Tx and can form a functionalized in-terface of modified Ti3C2Tx on polyamide (PA) membrane and provide additional permeation channels, which enabled the (AgPNPs)0.5T@PA membrane to have excellent toluene-water emulsion separation effi-ciency up to 99.6%.(c) 2023 Published by Elsevier Ltd on behalf of The editorial office of Journal of Materials Science & Technology.
