Abstract

The invention discloses a super-hydrophobic loofah sponge for separating oil and water and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: uniformly mixing ammonia water and a first solvent, adding an obtained mixture into a mixed solution of ethyl orthosilicate and the first solvent dropwise, reacting to obtain silicon dioxide nanoparticles, and adding a fluorine-containing silane coupling agent for performing surface hydrophobic modification to obtain hydrophobic silicon dioxide nanoparticles; then, fixing the silicon dioxide nanoparticles being subjected to hydrophobic modification to the surface of a loofah sponge with polyisocyanate to obtain the super-hydrophobic loofah sponge. The super-hydrophobic loofah sponge for separating oil and water has the advantages that a synthetic process is simple and feasible, the raw materials are readily-available, a contact angle with water is 156 degrees, high oil-water separating performance is realized, and the oil-water separating efficiency is 98 percent or above.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a superhydrophobic material for oil-water separation, in particular to a superhydrophobic loofah for oil-water separation and a preparation method thereof. Background technique [0002] Materials with special wettability mainly include superhydrophobic, superhydrophilic, superoleophobic, superoleophilic and underwater superoleophobic materials, etc., which can be used in the field of oil-water separation. At present, a variety of oil-water separation materials with special wettability have been developed, such as metal mesh, sponge, fabric, etc. Among them, superhydrophobic sponges with a three-dimensional network structure have attracted much attention due to their high oil-water separation efficiency. So far, various synthetic superhydrophobic sponges (mainly carbon sponges, graphene sponges, melamine sponges, polyurethane sponges and polysiloxane sponges, etc.) have been developed rapidly. However, the synthetic raw materi...
