Description

High-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention relates to the technical field of composite material oil-water separation, in particular to a high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering and a preparation method thereof.
Background
The oil leakage and sewage discharge of various transportation causes great damage to the human living environment, seriously affects the quality of our living environment, and mainly comprises industrial oil leakage accidents and industrial oil-containing wastewater. Conventional oil adsorption and treatment methods mainly include the use of adsorbents, plant and microbial degradation, combustion and oil dispersion.
At present, oil-absorbing materials are mainly divided into inorganic oil-absorbing materials, organic natural oil-absorbing materials and organic synthetic oil-absorbing materials. The inorganic oil absorption material has wide sources and high oil absorption multiplying power, but has the problems of low cyclic utilization rate and poor oil-water selectivity. The organic natural oil-absorbing material absorbs oil and absorbs water at the same time, so that the operation is difficult in the actual oil-absorbing process. Compared with inorganic oil absorbing materials and organic natural oil absorbing materials, the organic synthetic oil absorbing materials have the characteristics of oleophilic and hydrophobic and are widely applied.
The ideal oil absorbing material needs to have outstanding lipophilic and hydrophobic properties, high oil absorption and recyclability. Some of the adsorption materials capable of rapidly absorbing oil, such as carbon aerogel, fiber gel, graphene support materials and the like, which are developed at present, show good oil absorption performance, but in consideration of the economic problem of the oil absorption materials, the high adsorption materials are difficult to realize mass production.
Polymeric microporous foams are considered to be very effective, inexpensive and recyclable adsorbent materials, but due to the limitations of the production conditions, the pore size of the microporous foam is less than 70nm or difficult to control, which limits its application in oil-water separation.
The patent with the application number of CN202010783319.1 discloses a preparation method of an oil-absorbing hydrophobic sponge, which comprises the steps of firstly mixing silica sol with a silane coupling agent to obtain modified silica sol; adding melamine sponge into the diluent of the modified silica sol to obtain a silica modified sponge; then mixing the silicon dioxide modified sponge with polytetrafluoroethylene emulsion and dimethylformamide to obtain a silicon dioxide/polytetrafluoroethylene modified sponge; finally, vacuum drying the silica/polytetrafluoroethylene modified sponge at 240-300 ℃ to obtain the oil-absorbing and hydrophobic sponge finished product. The method has the following defects: the polytetrafluoroethylene particles are free in a cross-linked network structure, are not bonded with silicon dioxide and sponge through chemical bonds, and are subjected to high-temperature drying in the later period, so that part of polytetrafluoroethylene particles can be lost, and the hydrophobic oil absorption performance is reduced.
In view of the above, there is a need to design an improved high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering and a preparation method thereof, so as to solve the above problems.

Referring to fig. 1, the invention provides a preparation method of a high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering, which comprises the following steps:
s1, modifying nano silicon dioxide:

The method comprises the following specific steps: TEOS (tetraethyl silicate) is dissolved in ethanol, and an active monomer is generated through hydrolysis reaction, and the active monomer is polymerized to obtain silica sol; over time, the colloidal particles are connected with each other to form a network, so as to obtain silica gel with a certain space structure; and drying and heat-treating the silica gel to obtain the nano silica particles.
The general formula of the silane coupling agent is expressed as Y-SiX 3 . Wherein X is a group which can undergo hydrolysis reaction and generate a silicon hydroxyl group (Si-OH), such as an alkoxy group, an acetoxy group, a halogen, etc.; y is a hydrophobic organic functional group such as a hydrocarbon group, an ester group, a nitro group, etc., and the hydrocarbon group is specifically a hydrocarbon group of C10 to C20 or a hydrocarbon group containing an aryl group, an ester, an ether, an amine, an amide, etc., or a hydrocarbon group containing a double bond.
In the process, the silane coupling agent is hydrolyzed to generate a silanol structure, and the silane coupling agent is rapidly spread on the surface of the nano silicon dioxide; the silicon hydroxyl generated by the hydrolysis of the silane coupling agent and the hydroxyl rich on the surface of the nano silicon dioxide form hydrogen bond, so that hydrolysis condensation reaction occurs, and at the moment, the nano silicon dioxide and the silane coupling agent form firm chemical bonds, so that the nano silicon dioxide presents hydrophobicity.

Wherein the frequency of ultrasonic load treatment is more than 250Hz, and the time is more than 15min.
The invention also provides the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering, which is prepared by adopting the preparation method. The water contact angle of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam can reach 152.5 degrees, and the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam can be recycled.
The invention is described in detail below by means of several examples:
example 1
A preparation method of a high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering comprises the following steps:
s1, modifying nano silicon dioxide:
dissolving a silane coupling agent vinyl trimethoxy silane in an absolute ethyl alcohol solution, adding nano silicon dioxide into the obtained solution, ensuring that the ratio of the nano silicon dioxide to the silane coupling agent is 5:1, and reacting at 45 ℃ for 50min to obtain the modified nano silicon dioxide.
Wherein the nano silicon dioxide is prepared by a sol-gel method. The method comprises the following specific steps: dissolving TEOS in ethanol, generating an active monomer through hydrolysis reaction, and polymerizing the active monomer to obtain silica sol; over time, the colloidal particles are connected with each other to form a network, so as to obtain silica gel with a certain space structure; and drying and heat-treating the silica gel to obtain the nano silica particles.
S2, preparing an open-cell foam material:
the polypropylene is treated by supercritical fluid foaming technology to obtain the open-cell foam material with the aperture of 45 μm and the aperture ratio of 96%.
Wherein the supercritical fluid foaming technique comprises the following steps:
s21, mixing and granulating: placing polylactic acid and nano carbon black into a double-screw extrusion granulator for blending granulation to obtain mixed master batch; the proportion of the heat conducting medium is not more than 20% of the total mass of the mixture of polyolefin and the heat conducting medium;
s22, hot press molding: placing the mixed master batch prepared in the step S21 into a molding press for hot press molding to obtain a composite board;
s23, supercritical foaming: placing the composite board prepared in the step S22 into a high-pressure reaction kettle, introducing supercritical fluid into the high-pressure reaction kettle, and swelling for 1h at the temperature of 100 ℃ and the pressure of 15 Mpa; and then rapidly decompressing for 100s to obtain the open-cell foam material.
S3, preparing high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam:
adding the modified nano silicon dioxide prepared in the step S1 into ethanol according to a preset ratio of 1:5 to prepare a solution; and immersing the open-cell foaming material prepared in the step S2 into the obtained solution, and carrying out ultrasonic loading treatment to uniformly load the modified nano silicon dioxide into the open-cell foam to obtain the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam.
Wherein the frequency of ultrasonic load treatment is 260Hz and the time is 20min.
As shown in the scanning electron microscope image of the composite foam (i.e. the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam) and the original foam (i.e. the open-cell foam material prepared in the step S2) shown in fig. 2, the walls of the original foam are smoother, the open-cell effect is better, conditions are provided for the adhesion of silicon dioxide and the absorption of oil liquid, and a large amount of modified silicon dioxide is uniformly adhered to the walls of the composite foam holes as shown in fig. 2 b and d, which means that the modified silicon dioxide is uniformly adhered to the surface and the inside of the composite foam by ultrasonic treatment, and the hydrophobicity and the lipophilicity of the modified silicon dioxide are improved.
As shown in the water contact angle diagram of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam and the open-cell foaming material shown in fig. 3, the original foam shows certain hydrophilicity; the prepared composite foam cannot be wetted by water, presents strong hydrophobicity, and the water contact angle can reach 152.5 degrees. This is mainly because the original foam is in an open cell structure and exhibits uniform pores, with larger pores, allowing part of the water to enter the original foam; the surface of the composite foam has a layer of hydrophobic groups, and the pores of the composite foam are uniformly occupied by modified silicon dioxide, so that the pore diameter of the composite foam is reduced, the composite foam is more compact, the entry of moisture is prevented, and the composite foam presents strong hydrophobicity.
As shown in the adsorption rate diagram of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam to oil (comprising oil and organic solvent) in the figure 4 a, the adsorption rate of the composite foam to sunflower oil, carbon tetrachloride and dimethyl silane is up to more than 96%. Wherein, the adsorption rate of the composite foam to carbon tetrachloride is highest, the adsorption rate of the composite foam to the dimethyl silane is slightly lower. Through multiple cycles (after oil absorption each time, mechanical extrusion is carried out, then oil absorption is carried out, the next oil absorption is carried out, and each time oil absorption is taken as one cycle), the adsorption rate of the composite foam to oil liquid is gradually decreased, but the adsorption rate is still higher, and the composite foam is suitable for recycling the oil liquid.
As shown in the adsorption capacity diagram of the oil-water separation composite foam shown in fig. 4 b on the oil (comprising oil and organic solvent), the adsorption effect of the composite foam on diesel oil, toluene, ethanol, carbon tetrachloride and sunflower oil is better, wherein the adsorption capacity of the composite foam on toluene is up to about 42g/g, and the adsorption effect on normal hexane and petroleum ether is slightly poorer.
Examples 2 to 3
Compared with the embodiment 1, the preparation method of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering is different in that in the step S1, the mass ratio m of the nano silicon dioxide and the silane coupling agent is as follows 1 :m 2 Other differences are substantially the same as those of embodiment 1, and will not be described here again.
The open-cell polyolefin foam materials prepared in examples 1 to 3 were subjected to performance test, and the results are shown in Table 1:
TABLE 1 Water contact Angle test of high efficiency oil-Water separation composite foam prepared in examples 1-3
Examples m 1 :m 2 Contact angle of water
Example 1 5:1 152.5°
Example 2 10:1 150.6°
Example 3 20:1 143.8°
As can be seen from table 1, the water contact angle of the syntactic foam showed a tendency to increase with increasing content of the silane coupling agent. This is mainly because, as the content of the silane coupling agent increases, the higher the reaction concentration of the silane coupling agent, the greater the number of silane coupling agents grafted to the surface of the nanosilica, i.e., the greater the number of hydrophobic groups; in addition, the surface of the composite foam presents a special morphology structure, which is more beneficial to the absorption of oil liquid, so that the hydrophobicity and lipophilicity of the composite foam are enhanced.
Examples 4 to 6
The preparation method of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering is different from that of the embodiment 1 in that in the step S2, the pore diameters of the open-cell foaming materials are different, and the other materials are substantially the same as those of the embodiment 1, and are not described herein.
The open-cell polyolefin foam materials prepared in examples 4 to 6 were subjected to performance test, and the results are shown in Table 2:
table 2 water contact angle test of high efficiency oil-water separation composite foam prepared in examples 4-6
Examples Aperture (mum) Contact angle of water
Example 1 45 152.5°
Example 4 10 153.7°
Example 5 168 146.2°
Example 6 200 140.8°
As can be seen from table 2, the water contact angle of the composite foam gradually decreased as the pore size of the open-cell foam increased. On one hand, the number of hydrophobic groups on the surface of the composite foam is small and the distribution is loose, so that a continuous gas layer is not easy to form between water drops and interfaces, and the surface morphology is unfavorable for the adsorption of oil liquid; on the other hand, the larger pore diameter is not easy to wrap the oil in the foam, so that the oil is easy to run off, and therefore, the hydrophobicity and the lipophilicity are relatively poor. Although the hydrophobicity and lipophilicity are gradually reduced, the water contact angle is still larger, and the hydrophobicity and lipophilicity still reach higher levels.
When the pore diameter of the open-cell foam is less than 45 μm, the tendency of the water contact angle of the composite foam to increase is gentle.
Examples 7 to 8
The preparation method of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering is different from that of the embodiment 1 in that in the step S3, the ratio of the modified nano silicon dioxide to the ethanol is different, and the other parts are approximately the same as the embodiment 1, and are not repeated here.
The open-cell polyolefin foam materials prepared in examples 7 to 8 were subjected to performance test, and the results are shown in Table 3:

As shown in table 3, as the content of the modified silica increases, the water contact angle of the composite foam gradually increases, and when the ratio of the modified nano silica to the ethanol is 1:5, the water contact angle of the composite foam is as high as 152.5 degrees, which indicates that the higher the loading amount of the modified nano silica in the composite foam is, the more hydrophobic groups are exposed on the surface of the composite foam, and the better the hydrophobicity of the composite foam is. Meanwhile, the higher the load of the modified nano silicon dioxide in the composite foam is, the larger the surface appearance change of the composite foam is, the larger the surface roughness is, and the special surface appearance is more beneficial to the adsorption of oil.
Comparative example 1
Compared with the embodiment 1, the preparation method of the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on surface engineering is different in that in the step S2, the preparation method of the foaming material is different, no heat conducting medium is added in the preparation process of the foaming material, and the obtained foaming material has low aperture ratio and more closed pores; otherwise, the water contact angle of the obtained oil-water separation composite foam is 128.7 degrees, the adsorption capacity of the oil is 9.3g/g, and the water contact angle and the adsorption capacity of the oil are obviously reduced, so that the open-cell foam material provides necessary hydrophobic and oleophylic conditions for the composite foam.
In summary, the invention provides the high-efficiency oil-water separation composite foam based on the surface engineering and the preparation method thereof, and the construction of the surface engineering of the polymer-based foaming material is based for the first time, and the pore diameter and the aperture ratio of the open-cell foaming material are controlled, so that the modified nano silicon dioxide is uniformly distributed on the surface and the inside of the open-cell foaming material, the regulation and control of the surface morphology structure of the foaming material and the introduction of chemical groups are cooperated, the wetting behavior of liquid drops is changed, and the purposes of superhydrophobicity and oleophylic are achieved; the physical and chemical surface engineering construction of the polymer-based foaming material is combined with the green physical foaming process means for the first time, so that the preparation of the efficient oil-water separation adsorption material is realized, and the bottleneck problem of the adsorption material field applied to oil-water separation is solved.
