Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a method for preparing a solvent-resistant nanofiltration membrane with a polydopamine / amino silica interlayer, belonging to the technical field of membrane separation.
Background Art
[0002] Solvent-resistant nanofiltration (OSN) has been used in various industries, such as food, petrochemical, semiconductor, especially pharmaceutical. It not only aims to separate active pharmaceutical ingredients with molecular weights of 200 Da to 1000 Da from organic solvents, but also is used to recover valuable organic solvents in pharmaceutical and chemical syntheses. Solvent-resistant nanofiltration membranes mainly consist of an ultrafiltration substrate membrane and a separation layer. The polyamide separation layer formed by traditional interfacial polymerization processes is relatively thick, which will bring a large mass transfer resistance during application and is easily peeled off in organic solvents. Therefore, it is necessary to optimize the structure of the OSN membrane to improve the flux and stability.
[0003] Introducing an interlayer can have a significant impact on the structure (thickness and compactness) of the polyamide separation layer. Polydopamine (PDA), as a functional organic material, exhibits significant advantages in the preparation of the interlayer due to its unique biomimetic properties and chemical versatility. Liu et al. prepared a thin-film composite polyamide nanofiltration membrane with high permeability and selectivity by using sodium percarbonate-assisted dopamine oxidative self-polymerization to form a polydopamine interlayer. The hydrophilic PDA interlayer can regulate the interfacial polymerization process by controlling the diffusion and storage of amine monomers, and construct a uniform and defect-free separation layer as thin as 8 nm
Journal of Membrane Science, 2025, 718: 123686
[0004] Blending hydrophilic nanoparticles with polymers to construct an inorganic-organic interlayer can not only improve the hydrophilicity of the interlayer but also increase the free volume of the polymer, thereby providing additional solvent transport channels and further enhancing the flux. Among hydrophilic nanoparticles, silica has typical characteristics such as high stability and simple synthesis routes, and exhibits multiple advantages in the application of the interlayer. Wang et al. used polydopamine-coated silica microspheres as the interlayer to modify a poly(m-phenylene isophthalamide) substrate membrane, and then prepared a polyamide composite nanofiltration membrane through interfacial polymerization technology. Since both dopamine and silica contain a large number of hydroxyl groups, hydrogen bonding restricts the diffusion of aqueous monomers to the oil-water interface, so the surface of the nanofiltration membrane presents a nano-tubular Turing structure, and its pure water flux is 3 times that of traditional polyamide nanofiltration membranes

[0005] Therefore, based on the hydrophilicity and adhesion of polydopamine, this patent constructs a solvent-resistant nanofiltration membrane by introducing amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles into the polydopamine interlayer. Amino-functionalized silica can form regular packed pores in the interlayer, reduce the solvent transport resistance, and improve the flux. At the same time, the amino groups on its surface can not only participate in the interfacial polymerization reaction to inhibit the peeling of the separation layer but also enhance the binding strength with the substrate membrane through hydrogen bonding. In addition, the rigid inorganic framework can increase the elastic modulus of the interlayer, inhibit the swelling and deformation of the membrane in strongly polar solvents such as methanol, and enhance the stability.

After phase inversion, immerse it in a 6wt% - 12wt% hexanediamine / isopropanol solution for chemical cross-linking at 50°C - 80°C to obtain a polyetherimide base film; b) Preparation of amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles: Add 50mL of ethanol and 4mL of deionized water to a round-bottom flask, mix them evenly, and then add 0.1mL - 2mL of ammonia water; fix the round-bottom flask above a magnetic stirrer and stir at a speed of 100r / min - 150r / min for 20min; Subsequently, add 1mL of tetraethyl orthosilicate to the round-bottom flask and stir for 5h, then add 0.1mL - 1mL of 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane and stir for 12h; after the stirring is completed, transfer the solution in the round-bottom flask to a 50mL centrifuge tube, place it in a centrifuge, and centrifuge at a speed of 10000r / min for 10min; after centrifugation, pour out the upper-layer solution, add ethanol and ultrasonicate for 10min, and perform the centrifugation operation again, repeating a total of four times; place the centrifuged solid in an oven and vacuum-dry it at room temperature (25 ± 1°C) for 12h to obtain amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles; c) Preparation of the deposition solution: Prepare a Tris buffer solution with a molar concentration of 0.01mol / L, dissolve dopamine and an oxidant in the Tris buffer solution, the mass percentage of dopamine is 0.1wt% - 2wt%, the mass ratio of the oxidant to dopamine is 1:10 - 10:1, and then add the amino-functionalized silica nanoparticles obtained in step b) with a mass percentage of 0.1wt% - 10wt%, and ultrasonicate for 0.5h to obtain the deposition solution; d) Preparation of the intermediate layer: Fix the base film obtained in step a) in a polytetrafluoroethylene frame, then pour the deposition solution obtained in step c) on the upper surface of the film for 0.5h - 2.5h, keep the temperature of the deposition solution at 40°C - 80°C, take out the film after deposition, and ultrasonically clean it in deionized water for 10min to obtain a deposited film; e) Preparation of the polyamide layer: Fix the deposited film obtained in step d) in a polytetrafluoroethylene frame, prepare an aqueous piperazine solution with a mass percentage of 0.1 wt% to 1.5 wt%, pour it onto the film surface, pour off the surface solution after 5 min, and leave it to stand and dry at room temperature (25 ± 1 °C) for 10 min. Then prepare a solution of trimesoyl chloride / n-hexane with a mass percentage of 0.01 wt% to 0.5 wt%, pour it onto the film surface, pour off the surface solution after 3 min, and then place the film in an oven at 60 °C to 100 °C and dry it for 10 min to 60 min to obtain a composite membrane; f) Activation treatment: Immerse the composite membrane obtained in e) in an organic solvent and soak it at 60 °C to 80 °C for 1 min to 30 min to obtain a solvent-resistant nanofiltration membrane with a polydopamine / aminosilica intermediate layer.
