AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

The polyamide layer of existing reverse osmosis membranes has poor chlorine resistance, resulting in short membrane life, high energy consumption and increased operating costs.

Method used

Temperature-sensitive nanocontainers were used as the modifying material. By introducing temperature-responsive nanocontainers into the polyamide layer of the reverse osmosis membrane, the structural defects of the polyamide layer were repaired by utilizing the combination of sericin molecules with broken amide bonds under specific responses, thus preparing a chlorine-resistant reverse osmosis membrane with temperature-sensitive nanocontainers.

Benefits of technology

Abstract

This invention innovatively designs a temperature-sensitive nanocontainer. Its core comprises silica nanoclusters (SiO2) with a large specific surface area and rich in hydroxyl groups, onto which sericin molecules with characteristic groups such as carboxyl and amino groups are loaded. Finally, it is encapsulated with 1799-PVA. Sericin is a water-soluble spherical protein composed of various amino acids, possessing biocompatibility. Due to its high amino and carboxyl group content, it is often used for coating or deposition on polyamide layers for antifouling and enhanced chlorine resistance. By introducing a temperature-responsive nanocontainer within the polyamide layer of a reverse osmosis membrane, we successfully prepared a self-healing polyamide layer with precise temperature control. After the shell material dissolves under specific response conditions, the released sericin molecules can effectively bind to broken amide bonds through their surface amino and carboxyl groups, filling the structural damage areas of the polyamide layer caused by chlorination, thereby significantly improving the membrane's chlorine resistance and extending its service life.

Description

Technical fields:

[0001] This invention relates to the field of composite materials and reverse osmosis membrane preparation technology, specifically to a method for preparing a chlorine-resistant reverse osmosis membrane with a temperature-sensitive nanocontainer filled with an aromatic polyamide layer. Background technology:

[0002] Reverse osmosis (RO) technology plays a crucial role in seawater desalination and water recycling. Currently, the most common RO membrane is a thin-layer composite membrane prepared by the interfacial polymerization of m-phenylenediamine and trimesoyl chloride. However, the poor chlorine resistance of the polyamide layer on the membrane surface significantly reduces membrane lifespan, increases energy consumption and operating costs in the desalination process, and becomes a fatal weakness of RO membranes in practical applications. Based on these reasons, researchers have conducted various experimental studies to address the problem of poor chlorine resistance. The underlying approach is to change the monomer selection during the interfacial polymerization process, or to coat and graft modified materials onto the membrane surface to reduce the contact sites between the polyamide layer and active chlorine. Physical coating fixes the protective layer to the membrane surface through electrostatic interactions or hydrogen bonds, while chemical grafting reduces the contact between the polyamide layer and active chlorine by covalently attaching the repair material to the membrane surface. However, both methods increase the density or thickness of the polyamide layer on the membrane surface, reducing the water molecule permeation rate. In particular, physical coating methods, due to the lack of stable bonding forces, often lead to weakened effects between the modified material and the polyamide layer, and may even cause delamination, forming larger structural defects and greatly reducing separation performance.

[0003] In recent years, polymer nanovesicles (or polymer vesicles) have attracted considerable interest due to their diverse polymer selection, structural advantages, and sensitivity to environmental changes. These nanovesicles possess hollow structures, large surface areas, and large internal volumes, enabling them to trap small molecules (such as mesoporous silica, polymers, and proteins) and exhibiting excellent molecular trapping and chemical surface functionalization capabilities. Nanovesicles can also consist of a spherical center with carrier properties and a shell coated with polymer material. The shell protects against external chemical and mechanical erosion, allowing for controlled release of the internal material. By designing nanovesicles that respond to specific stimuli, particularly external conditions such as pH, light, and ions, the delivery efficiency of nanoscale polymer materials can be improved. These stimulus-responsive nanovesicles have found wide applications in drug delivery and corrosion resistance. However, research on the use of temperature-responsive systems for post-chlorination repair of reverse osmosis membranes is relatively limited. Summary of the Invention:

[0004] In view of the above technical background, the present invention aims to provide a method for preparing a chlorine-resistant reverse osmosis membrane for a temperature-sensitive nanocontainer. Specifically, it includes the following steps:

[0005] Remove the polysulfone membrane and fix it on a flat plate. Remove the moisture with an air knife. Pour the aqueous solution of the temperature-sensitive nanocontainer onto the surface of the polysulfone membrane. After a period of time, pour off the excess aqueous solution and dry it with an air knife. Then pour the oil solution onto the membrane surface. After a period of time, pour off the excess oil solution.

[0006] The membrane obtained above is placed in an oven and heat-treated for a period of time. After that, it is taken out and cleaned to obtain a chlorine-resistant reverse osmosis membrane for a temperature-sensitive nano-container.

[0007] The method for preparing the aqueous solution of the temperature-sensitive nanocontainer is as follows: prepare an aqueous solution of m-phenylenediamine with a mass fraction of 1.0-3.0%, add a certain mass of the temperature-sensitive nanocontainer to the above solution, and sonicate for a period of time to obtain the aqueous solution of the temperature-sensitive nanocontainer.

[0008] The oil phase solution is a 0.1-0.5% (w / w) solution of pyromellitic chlorohexane.

[0009] The heat treatment temperature is 60–80°C, and the heat treatment time is 1–10 min.

[0010] The method for preparing the temperature-sensitive nanocontainer includes the following steps:

[0011] (1) Place 90-100 mg of L-lysine into a three-necked flask containing 90-100 mL of deionized water and stir at 500-800 rpm for 8-15 minutes in a reflux reflux apparatus at 60°C. Then, quickly add 5-10 mL of tetraethyl orthosilicate and stir for 12 hours until the solution becomes clear. Next, add 10-15 mL of tetraethyl orthosilicate and stir for 12 hours. The solution will gradually turn into a milky white turbid solution. Then, centrifuge at 6000-8000 rpm for 5-10 minutes and wash 3-5 times. Vacuum dry the resulting lower solid layer and grind it into powder to obtain SiO2 nanoparticles.

[0012] (2) Take a certain amount of SiO2 nanoparticles obtained in step (1), add them to 30-50 mL of deionized water, and sonicate them for 20-30 minutes to uniformly disperse the nanoparticles. Add 0.3-0.5 g of sericin to 50 mL of water and stir at 50-80 °C for 30-60 minutes until completely dissolved. Mix the two solutions and stir at 35-40 °C for 1-2 hours to ensure that the sericin is uniformly distributed on the surface of the SiO2 nanoparticles. Then wash with deionized water 3-5 times and centrifuge at 6000-9000 r / min for 5-10 minutes. Finally, dry at 50-70 °C to obtain the powder, which is SiO2@SS.

[0013] (3) Take a certain amount of SiO2@SS powder obtained in step (2), add it to 50-70 ml of water, and sonicate it for 30-40 minutes using a cell disruptor. Then, pour 0.5 g of polyvinyl alcohol into 50-70 ml of water, soak it for 30 minutes, and then heat it at 70-90℃ for 30 minutes to disperse it with SiO2@SS and stir for 1-2 hours. Centrifuge the mixed solution three times at 6000-9000 r / min for 5-10 min, and then freeze-dry it to obtain white SiO2@SS@PVA, i.e., temperature-sensitive nanocontainer powder.

[0014] The temperature-sensitive nanocontainer's chlorine-resistant reverse osmosis membrane has chlorine self-healing properties.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:

[0016] This invention innovatively prepares a temperature-sensitive nanocontainer. The core consists of high-specific-surface-area hydroxyl-rich silica nanoclusters (SiO2), with sericin molecules bearing characteristic groups such as carboxyl and amino groups on their surface, and encapsulated with 1799-PVA. Sericin is a water-soluble spherical protein rich in various amino acids and possesses biocompatibility. Its amino and carboxyl groups make it commonly used for coating or depositing on polyamide layers for antifouling and resistance to chlorine damage. This method introduces temperature-responsive nanocontainers into the polyamide layer of an RO membrane to prepare a polyamide layer with precise temperature control and self-healing properties. When the shell material undergoes a specific response dissolution, the released sericin molecules effectively bind to broken amide bonds through their surface amino and carboxyl groups, filling structural defects in the polyamide layer caused by chlorination, significantly improving the membrane's chlorination resistance and thus extending its service life.
