Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of membrane separation technology and electrochemistry, in particular, to an anion exchange membrane, a preparation method and application thereof, an integrated electrode, a preparation method thereof, and an electrodeposition ion removal device. BACKGROUND

[0002] Due to the non-renewability of fossil fuels and the environmental problems caused by the burning of carbon dioxide, developing clean energy is an indispensable condition for implementing the national sustainable development strategy. Hydrogen energy, as a kind of renewable energy, is considered as the "ultimate energy" of the 21st century because of its high calorific value, diverse sources, abundant reserves and long-term and large-scale storage characteristics. Electrolysis of water is considered as an efficient, clean and scalable hydrogen production technology. In the existing water electrolysis hydrogen production technology route, from the comprehensive analysis of large-scale, long-life and low cost, it is considered that alkaline anion membrane electrolysis of water has unique advantages. On the one hand, compared with commercial alkaline water electrolysis of water, it can reduce the internal resistance, improve the current density and energy efficiency; on the other hand, non-noble metal catalysts can be used to overcome the problem that proton exchange membrane electrolysis of water is limited by noble metal catalysts, resulting in high construction cost and limited resources. In the process of alkaline anion membrane electrolysis of water, the anion exchange membrane conducts hydroxyl from the cathode to the anode, while blocking the direct transmission of gas and electrons between the electrodes, which is an extremely important part of the entire water electrolysis system. Therefore, it is of great significance to develop anion exchange membranes with high performance and easy preparation.

[0003] CN112175217A discloses a method for preparing an anion exchange membrane: the obtained polymer solution is directly cast on a glass plate or a stainless steel plate, pushed flat with a casting knife, then dried at 60-100℃ for 5-24h to form a film, and finally vacuum dried at 80-150℃ for 1-24h to obtain an anion exchange membrane containing a copolymer of arylpiperidine and diketone monomers. CN113851683A discloses a method for preparing an anion exchange membrane: an anion exchange resin is dissolved in a polar solution to form a homogeneous solution of anion exchange resin with a concentration of 3wt%, which is directly cast on a glass plate and dried at 60℃ for 8h to form a film. CN115678073A discloses a method for preparing an anion exchange membrane: the casting solution is cast on a clean glass plate, then vacuum dried at 120℃ for 24h to completely remove the residual solvent, and an I-type thin film anion exchange membrane is obtained. In the literature Journal of Membrane Science, 2008, 310(1-2): 577-585. DOI: 10.1016 / j.memsci.2007.11.039, the casting solution is cast on a glass plate at room temperature and placed at room temperature for 48h, then placed at 80℃ for 24h to completely volatilize the solvent, and an anion exchange membrane is obtained. However, the above-mentioned hot curing technology has the following disadvantages in the preparation of anion exchange membranes: (1) the preparation method is currently based on thermal crosslinking, and the film preparation time is too long; (2) the energy consumption of the membrane preparation process is high; (3) a large amount of organic solvent is needed to prepare the casting solution, which causes serious environmental pollution. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a rapid and simple method for preparing ion exchange membranes.

[0004] Photocuring technology refers to the use of light radiation to induce the polymerization of active components of organic matter, achieving rapid curing of coatings in a short time. Compared with traditional thermal curing technology, the energy of photochemical reaction molecules is much higher than that of thermal chemical reaction molecules, which means that photocuring reaction does not require heating and can achieve coating curing in a few seconds to tens of seconds at room temperature, which is far higher than the rate of thermal curing by ten orders of magnitude. The characteristics of photocuring technology are that all substances in the system participate in the curing reaction and are directly or indirectly converted into a solid film. This means that compared with traditional solvent evaporation solid coatings, zero emission of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) is achieved during photocuring. Overall, photocuring technology has the advantages of high reaction rate, low energy consumption and low pollution. CN111793156A discloses a preparation method of a block anion exchange membrane, which uses visible light to initiate polymerization to synthesize a block polymer with a soft-hard segment structure, and introduces a pyrrole group, a trimethylamine group or a piperidine group into the block polymer. The block anion exchange membrane is prepared by irradiating for 20-45 min. CN116459680A discloses a preparation method of a green photopolymerization anion exchange membrane. First, brominated self-porous polymer (PIM-Br) and photoinitiator are dissolved in chloromethyl styrene (VBC), then the solution is cast on a glass plate, and then the glass plate is irradiated with ultraviolet light for 20-30 min for photocuring, and then directly immersed in a bis-tert-amine reagent. The anion exchange membrane is obtained by nucleophilic substitution reaction of bromomethyl in PIM-Br and chloromethyl in VBC with bis-tert-amine group. Although the above-mentioned patents use photocuring technology, which avoids high energy consumption and complicated reaction process, it is still necessary to further shorten the film preparation time and improve the preparation efficiency of the anion exchange membrane. In addition, the same increase and decrease of ion exchange capacity IEC and water absorption greatly limit the application efficiency.

[0005] Capacitive deionization (CDI) is an efficient and environmentally friendly electrochemical water treatment technology, which can be used for moderate desalination of salt-containing wastewater. In order to improve the desalination performance of the CDI device, ion exchange membranes are often placed on the surface of the electrode in practical application, which can weaken the common ion effect in the adsorption process, reduce the adsorption resistance, and avoid the secondary adsorption of ions by the opposite electrode during the desorption process of CDI.

[0006] In actual operation, the desalination performance of the CDI device is limited by the low adsorption capacity of the electrode. This is because the ion exchange membrane and the adsorption electrode are combined in a physical superposition form, which causes a large gap between the ion exchange membrane and the electrode, and the actual ion transport distance from the solution to the electrode is long, which increases the mass transfer resistance. Therefore, the heterogeneous structure between the ion exchange membrane and the adsorption electrode is a major bottleneck for the performance improvement of CDI.

[0007] CN109502708A discloses a preparation method of an ion exchange membrane / carbon composite electrode, specifically spraying ion exchange membrane layer slurry to the surface of a carbon electrode, and then heating and curing to obtain an ion exchange membrane / carbon composite electrode, wherein the ion exchange membrane layer slurry is pretreated ion exchange resin and a binder. This method mixes solutions. The composite electrode prepared by this method is still a heterogeneous structure, and the ion exchange resin and the electrode are bonded by the binder. On the one hand, the ion exchange resin in the ion exchange layer is a discontinuous phase, and the ion transport channel density is low; on the other hand, the binder does not have ion exchange function, which increases the contact resistance between the adsorption electrode and the ion exchange resin, and limits the ion transport rate to the adsorption electrode. CN115536114A discloses a membrane capacitive deionization desalination module, which comprises an anode, a cathode and an ion exchange membrane. The cathode comprises a carbon material matrix and a conductive polymer doped with anions B deposited in the carbon material matrix. The electrode prepared by this method can improve its conductivity and the ion transport rate in the electrode, but does not change the heterogeneous structure between the ion exchange membrane and the electrode, and the contact resistance between the electrode and the ion exchange membrane is large, which has limited improvement on the desalination performance.

[0312] Figure 2 The raw material PPO, BPPO-1 of Preparation Example 1, and the anion exchange membrane of Example A3 were respectively characterized by infrared spectroscopy, and were analyzed in combination with the structural characteristics of PPO. Absorption peaks at 1605 cm -1 and 1470 cm -1 were consistent with the stretching vibration peaks of C=C bonds on the benzene ring skeleton. An absorption peak at 1429 cm -1 was attributed to the asymmetric bending vibration peak of the methyl group, and the corresponding symmetric bending vibration absorption peak of the methyl group was at 1379 cm -1 . An absorption peak at 1306 cm -1 was attributed to the out-of-plane bending vibration of the methyl group. The corresponding absorption peak at 1188 cm -1 indicated the asymmetric stretching vibration of C-O-C on the PPO skeleton, and the corresponding symmetric stretching vibration absorption peak was in the form of a doublet at 1020 cm -1 and 958 cm -1 . In the infrared spectrum of Preparation Example 1, an absorption peak at 986 cm -1 was observed, which was because the grafting of CH2Br containing a strong electron-withdrawing group in PPO caused the splitting of the symmetric vibration stretching peak of C-O-C at 986 cm -1 , and three different peak values appeared, confirming the successful synthesis of BPPO. In the infrared spectrum of Example A3, a stretching vibration peak of C=O bond at 1670 cm -1 appeared, which was a characteristic peak of the photocrosslinking agent. In addition, due to the strong water absorption effect of the quaternary ammonium ion after successful crosslinking, the infrared spectrum of Example A3 showed an absorption peak of O-H in the combined water at 3420 cm -1 . The above results can prove the successful preparation of the photocrosslinked anion exchange membrane.

[0345] Comparative Example DA1

[0346] Brominated polyphenylene oxide BPPO-1 (1 g) was dissolved in N-methyl pyrrolidone to form a 10 wt% solution, 0.029 g N,N,N,N-tetramethyl ethylenediamine was added, and the solution was stirred at room temperature for 48 h. The obtained reaction product was precipitated in petroleum ether, filtered and washed several times to obtain a crosslinked polymer, and the polymer was dissolved in N-methyl pyrrolidone to form a 20 wt% casting solution.

[0347] The above casting solution was degassed and poured onto a glass plate, and a doctor blade was used to obtain a liquid membrane layer.

[0348] The liquid membrane layer was transferred to an oven at 80°C for 12 h to obtain an anion exchange membrane DA1 with a solid surface.

[0349] Comparative Example DA2

[0350] (1) Brominated polyphenylene oxide BPPO-1 (1 g) was dissolved in N-methyl pyrrolidone to form a 10 wt% solution.

After a period of reaction, the solution was stirred at 25°C in the dark for 24 h to obtain a casting solution.

[0351] (2) The above casting solution was degassed and poured onto a glass plate, and a doctor blade was used to obtain a liquid membrane layer. The liquid membrane layer was transferred to an oven at 80°C for 24 h to obtain an anion exchange membrane DA2 with a solid surface. Figure 3 Nuclear magnetic resonance was performed on the anion exchange membranes of Comparative Example DA2 and Example A3, respectively. 13 C spectrum characterization. The nuclear magnetic resonance spectra of Example A3 and Comparative Example DA2 were similar because the main chain skeletons of the two were the same. Due to the presence of uncrosslinked carbon-carbon double bonds in the side chain of Comparative Example DA2, the conjugation effect produced by the benzene ring in the main chain caused the peak to move to a higher field, i.e., a carbon-carbon double bond sp 2 hybrid peak appeared at δ177 ppm. However, no carbon-carbon double bond sp 2 hybrid peak appeared at δ177 ppm in Example A3, indicating that under the action of the photoinitiator, ultraviolet light can open the carbon-carbon double bond and further crosslink in a short time, i.e., the conversion rate of the carbon-carbon double bond is higher. Figure 3 It is shown that the membrane preparation method of thermal curing or photocuring does not affect the main chain structure (Formula I) of the anion exchange membrane BPPO, but only affects the side chain structure of the anion exchange membrane, i.e., the anion exchange membrane prepared by the thermal curing method does not contain the structure described in Formula II.

[0352] The structures and properties of the anion exchange membranes prepared in the examples and comparative examples were tested, and the results are shown in Table 1.

[0358]

[0359]

[0360] Table 1 continued

[0361]

[0362]

[0363] As can be seen from the above table, compared with the thermally cured anion exchange membranes DA1, DA2 and the commercial anion exchange membranes, the anion exchange membranes A1-A17 provided by the application have relatively high ion exchange capacity, water absorption, swelling rate, mechanical property, alkali resistance, OH - The conductivity, current density, desalination rate and lower impedance and ion exchange capacity decrease rate. Because the molecules are in the ground state in the thermal chemical reaction and in the excited state in the photochemical reaction, the energy of the photochemical reaction molecules is much higher than that of the thermal chemical reaction, so the photo-curing method can quickly excite the carbon-carbon double bonds in the casting solution to realize radical type crosslinking in a short time to obtain a solid film layer. In the case that the molar ratio of bromomethyl to crosslinking agent in BPPO is the same, the carbon-carbon double bond conversion rate in the casting solution can be greatly improved by the photo-curing method, so that the crosslinking density of the ion exchange membranes A1-A17 prepared by the application is higher than that of the ion exchange membranes DA1 and DA2 prepared by thermal curing. When the molar ratio of halomethyl to the crosslinking agent in the halogenated polyphenyl ether is within the preferred range, the film structure prepared by the photo-curing method is more compact and the long carbon chain molecular chains connected with the polyphenyl ether skeleton can form dense ion clusters, which endow the ion exchange membranes A1-A5 with better mechanical properties and ion selectivity. When the molar ratio of bromomethyl to crosslinking agent in BPPO is 1:9.5, the crosslinking density of the photo-cured anion exchange membrane is A3>A7>A6, which indicates that the brominated polyphenyl ether (BPPO-1) with a bromination degree of 57% is selected, which can provide a suitable number of active groups (CH2Br) on the main chain skeleton for grafting with the crosslinking agent, and has sufficient active sites for subsequent quaternization reaction, so that the ion exchange membrane A3 has a more compact film structure and further forms dense cation clusters, which ultimately endow it with good ion selectivity, suitable swelling degree, higher mechanical strength and OH -The conductivity and current density, lower impedance and higher desalination rate. And, in terms of curing time, the photocured anion exchange membrane is significantly shorter than the hot-cured anion exchange membrane in membrane preparation time, and reduces energy consumption.

After soaking Example A3 in an alkaline solution with pH = 12 and temperature of 80℃ for 100 hours, the morphology of the membrane did not change significantly. From Figure 4 and 5 It can be seen that Example A3 has good alkali resistance at 80℃.

[0369] Note that the weight W of the ion exchange membrane obtained in Example 1-5 step (3) is referred to as the assumption that BPPO-1 participates in the reaction in its entirety. m (g), Wherein, W BPPO-1 is the mass (g) of brominated polyphenyl ether.

[0370] As can be seen from Table 2, the weight gain of the membranes of Examples A1-A5 increases with the increase of the crosslinking agent content, while the weight gain of the membrane of Comparative Example DA2 is not obvious. From a macroscopic point of view, it is proved that the photocuring method can quickly excite the carbon-carbon double bonds in the casting solution in a short time to realize free radical type crosslinking, and the carbon-carbon double bond conversion rate in the casting solution can be greatly improved by the photocuring method, so that the crosslinking density of the ion exchange membrane A1-A5 prepared by photocuring is higher than that of the ion exchange membrane DA2 prepared by hot curing.
