Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of wastewater treatment and relates to a preparation method of an antibiotic selective adsorbent. BACKGROUND

[0002] Aluminum is one of the most widely used metals, which has good electrical conductivity, fast heat conduction, light weight, high strength, easy to form and other advantages. However, aluminum has a thin and dense oxide film on its surface in the air, which affects its electrical conductivity. In addition, aluminum has low hardness, poor wear resistance, and is prone to corrosion in humid, acidic and alkaline environments, which affects its application range and service life. Surface treatment of aluminum can overcome its shortcomings, extend its service life and expand its application range, and give it protective and decorative purposes.

[0003] The surface treatment technology of aluminum includes anodic oxidation, electroplating, coating and other methods. For aluminum-based materials used in the electrical field, in addition to the requirement of corrosion resistance, excellent electrical conductivity is also required. At the same time, super-hydrophobic surface can make corrosive substances separate from the surface of aluminum alloy, improving the service life of the coating. However, the existing technology has the disadvantages of poor hydrophobicity, poor corrosion resistance and large surface resistance, so it is necessary to prepare a super-hydrophobic conductive corrosion-resistant coating on the surface of aluminum material.

[0004] Wu et al. (Wu S-K, Yang W, et al. Characterization of MAO+Cu Composite Coatings on Aluminum Alloy. [J]. Coatings. 2021, 11(10): 1172.) prepared a rough and porous Al2O3 ceramic layer on the surface of aluminum alloy by micro-arc oxidation, and then obtained an Al2O3+Cu composite coating by chemical copper plating. The coating has good corrosion resistance, but the Al2O3 separates the conductive Cu layer from the aluminum alloy substrate, reducing the electrical conductivity of the surface.

[0005] Chinese patent "Aluminum Alloy Chemical Conversion Film Forming Liquid and Preparation Method of Conversion Film" (Application No. CN202010414921.8, Publication No. CN111519176A, Publication Date: August 11, 2020) discloses a surface treatment method for improving the corrosion resistance of aluminum alloy. A dense chemical conversion film is prepared on the surface of aluminum alloy by chemical conversion. The corrosion resistance of the aluminum alloy surface is significantly improved, but the method has the problems of high surface resistance after surface treatment and insufficient surface hydrophobicity.

[0006] Chinese patent "A surface treatment method for preventing corrosion of aluminum alloy" (application number: CN201910499107.8, authorization number: CN110129855B, authorization date: 2021.04.27) discloses a surface treatment method for preventing corrosion of aluminum alloy. The surface of the aluminum alloy is treated by anodic oxidation to form an aluminum oxide film, then immersed in a chemical treatment solution to generate a dense film on the surface of the aluminum alloy, and finally sealed with a low surface energy material to further increase the density of the film on the surface of the aluminum alloy. The film on the surface of the sealed aluminum alloy has strong hydrophobicity and can prevent the adsorption of harmful substances and corrosion, but the method has the problem of large resistance of the oxide film.

[0007] Chinese patent "Preparation method of aluminum alloy corrosion-resistant coating" (application number: CN201810863143.3, publication number: CN108624932A, publication date: 2018.10.09) discloses a preparation method of aluminum alloy corrosion-resistant coating. An oxide film is formed by using a boron-sulfuric acid anodic oxidation process, and then a layer of organic-inorganic composite coating is coated on the surface of the oxide film by using a sol-gel method to achieve the purpose of sealing the hole, thereby greatly improving the corrosion resistance, but the method has the problem of large resistance of the oxide film and the organic-inorganic composite coating on its surface.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] The aluminum material surface conductive anticorrosion coating preparation method is specifically implemented according to the following steps:

[0032] Firstly, the graphene and FeCl3·6H2O are sequentially added into the desolvation agent in a molar ratio of 10:1 and are uniformly ultrasonically dispersed, then urea is added, and after vigorous stirring, the mixture is poured into a polytetrafluoroethylene liner and is reacted at 180℃ for 8h, and the magnetic graphene is obtained after magnetic separation and cleaning.

[0033] Then, the magnesium powder particles are ultrasonically dispersed in a 20wt% PDDA aqueous solution for 5h, and the carbon fibers with a length-diameter ratio of 50 are ultrasonically dispersed in a 20wt% DDS aqueous solution for 5h, and after centrifugation, the mixture is dried. The modified anode metal particles and cathode nanowires are dispersed into deionized water in a molar ratio of 1:1 of the anode filler to the cathode filler, and then are stirred in an amino-modified solution of 80% ethanol, 10% deionized water and 10% KH-550 for 15min to obtain the anode sacrificial filler.

[0034] Then, the magnetic graphene prepared in step 1 and the anode sacrificial filler prepared in step 2 are mixed and stirred in a mass ratio of 1%:1%:25% of the magnetic graphene, the anode sacrificial filler, polypyrrole and 71% ethanol and 1% silane coupling agent KH-570 to uniformly disperse the fillers, and then 0.5% polyamide and 0.5% fatty alcohol ethoxysiloxane are added and stirred uniformly to obtain the conductive anticorrosion coating.

[0036] Finally, the conductive anticorrosive coating obtained in step 3 is uniformly sprayed on the surface of the aluminum sheet at a distance of 30 cm from the surface of the aluminum sheet under the action of a strong magnetic field with an angle of 0° between the magnetic field and the aluminum sheet, and a directional conductive anticorrosive coating is obtained after room temperature curing.

[0037] Example 2

[0038] First, graphene and FeCl2·4H2O are added to the de-solvent in a molar ratio of 10:1 and ultrasonically dispersed, then sodium acetate is added and stirred vigorously, and then poured into a polytetrafluoroethylene liner and reacted at 180°C for 8h, and then separated and cleaned by magnet to obtain magnetic graphene.

[0042] Finally, the conductive anticorrosive coating obtained in step 3 is uniformly sprayed on the surface of the aluminum sheet at a distance of 30 cm from the surface of the aluminum sheet under the action of a strong magnetic field with an angle of 90° between the magnetic field and the aluminum sheet, and a directional conductive coating is obtained after room temperature curing.

[0043] Example 3

[0044] Firstly, graphene and FeCl2·4H2O were added into the solvent-free medium in a molar ratio of 10:1 and ultrasonically dispersed, then sodium citrate was added and stirred vigorously, and then poured into a polytetrafluoroethylene liner and reacted at 180°C for 8h, and then separated and cleaned by a magnet to obtain magnetic graphene.

[0045] Then, the zinc powder particles were ultrasonically dispersed in a 20% PDDA aqueous solution for 5h, and the silver nanofiber with an aspect ratio of 50 was ultrasonically dispersed in a 20% DDS aqueous solution for 5h, and then dried after centrifugation. The modified anode metal particles and cathode nanowires were dispersed in deionized water in a molar ratio of 1:3, then stirred in an amino-modified solution of 80% ethanol, 10% deionized water and 10% KH-550, and then soaked for 30min to obtain an anode sacrificial filler.

[0046] Then, the magnetic graphene prepared in step 1 was mixed with the anode sacrificial filler prepared in step 2 in a mass ratio of 3%:3%:35% polyaniline, 53% DMF and 4% silane coupling agent KH-580, and then stirred to disperse the fillers uniformly, and then 1% tertiary amine and 1% polyether siloxane were added and stirred uniformly to obtain a conductive corrosion-resistant coating.

[0047] Then, the aluminum material was ultrasonically cleaned in acetone, then cleaned with deionized water, then soaked in a 10% sulfuric acid solution for 40s, then cleaned with deionized water, then soaked in a 5% sodium hydroxide solution for 40s, and then cleaned with deionized water to obtain an aluminum material with a clean surface and etched pores.

[0048] Finally, the conductive corrosion-resistant coating obtained in step 3 was uniformly sprayed on the surface of the aluminum sheet under the action of a strong magnetic field with an angle of 45° between the magnetic field and the aluminum sheet at a distance of 30cm from the surface of the aluminum material, and then cured at room temperature to obtain a directional conductive coating.

[0049] Example 4

[0050] Firstly, graphene and FeCl3·6H2O were added into the solvent-free medium in a molar ratio of 10:1 and ultrasonically dispersed, then sodium citrate was added and stirred vigorously, and then poured into a polytetrafluoroethylene liner and reacted at 180°C for 8h, and then separated and cleaned by a magnet to obtain magnetic graphene.

[0051] Then, the zinc powder particles were ultrasonically dispersed in a 20% PDDA aqueous solution for 5h, and the silver nanofiber with an aspect ratio of 50 was ultrasonically dispersed in a 20% PSS aqueous solution for 5h, and then dried after centrifugation. The modified anode metal particles and cathode nanowires were dispersed in deionized water in a molar ratio of 1:3, then stirred in an amino-modified solution of 60% ethanol, 20% deionized water and 20% KH-550, and then soaked for 30min to obtain an anode sacrificial filler.

[0052] Then, according to the mass ratio, 3% of the magnetic graphene prepared in step 1 and 3% of the anode sacrificial filler prepared in step 2 are mixed with 35% polyaniline, 53% DMF and 4% silane coupling agent KH-580 and stirred to disperse the filler evenly. Then, 1% tertiary amine and 1% fatty alcohol ethoxysiloxane are added and stirred evenly to obtain a conductive anti-corrosion coating.

[0053] Next, the aluminum material is ultrasonically cleaned in acetone, then cleaned with deionized water and immersed in 10% sulfuric acid solution for 40 seconds. After cleaning with deionized water, it is immersed in 5% sodium hydroxide solution for 40 seconds. After cleaning with deionized water, the aluminum material with a clean surface and etched holes is obtained.

[0054] Finally, the conductive anti-corrosion coating obtained in step 3 is uniformly sprayed onto the surface of the aluminum sheet at a distance of 30cm under the action of a strong magnetic field with an angle of 45° between the magnetic field and the aluminum sheet. After curing at room temperature, a directional conductive coating is obtained.

[0055] Table 1 shows the hydrophobic angle, surface contact resistance, and mass loss rate of aluminum materials with coatings in Example 1, coatings in Example 3, chemical conversion films, and conventional untreated aluminum materials.

[0056]

[0057] As shown in Table 1, the untreated aluminum material exhibits the highest surface contact resistance and the greatest mass loss rate. The presence of the oxide film reduces its conductivity and corrosion resistance. In contrast, the aluminum material with a chemical conversion coating shows improved corrosion resistance and conductivity compared to the untreated material. However, its small water contact angle allows corrosive liquids to remain on the surface for extended periods, negatively impacting its long-term corrosion resistance. In Example 1, the graphene nanosheets are exposed on the surface and have undergone hydrophobic modification, exhibiting superhydrophobicity. Simultaneously, the anolyte metal powder and cathode fiber are in contact, forming a sacrificial anode protection system. Furthermore, the magnetic graphene, oriented under a magnetic field, not only increases the path for corrosive substances to penetrate the coating, improving corrosion resistance, but the carbon fibers and graphene also construct a conductive network exhibiting good conductivity. Therefore, the coating in Example 1 demonstrates excellent conductivity and corrosion resistance.

[0058] Depend on Figure 1 It can be seen that the zinc powder at the anode is uniformly distributed on the carbon fiber at the cathode to form a sacrificial anode filler, and the conductive filler graphene is oriented parallel to the aluminum substrate under the action of a magnetic field and forms a conductive network within the coating. At the same time, there are a large number of pores on the surface of the aluminum substrate, which are tightly bonded to the coating.
