Abstract
Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of oil-water separation materials, and particularly relates to a porous hollow hydrophilic polylactic acid nanofiber separation membrane and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND
[0002] In recent years, due to the increasing discharge of industrial oil-containing wastewater and the frequent occurrence of oil leakage accidents, the treatment of oil-containing wastewater has become a big problem. The membrane separation method has the advantages of simple preparation, low cost, high separation efficiency, etc., and is widely used in the field of oil-water separation. However, the traditional polymer membranes such as polystyrene, polyvinylidene fluoride and polyacrylonitrile have the problems of non-degradability and low separation efficiency, which will pollute the environment. Therefore, the application uses a biodegradable polylactic acid as the main raw material to prepare an oil-water separation material. According to the type of oil-water emulsion, the oil-water separation membrane mainly has two types: super-hydrophilic type and super-oleophilic type. Considering the problem that the membrane material will be contaminated by oil droplets, it is more challenging to design a super-hydrophilic membrane material. Therefore, it is of great significance to select a degradable material as the raw material to prepare a super-hydrophilic oil-water separation material.
[0003] Polylactic acid (PLA) is a bio-based polyester derived from renewable resources such as corn and starch. And PLA has biocompatibility, biodegradability and non-toxicity, and has been widely used in various fields. However, the mechanical properties and heat resistance of PLA are poor, and the prepared membrane filtration material has the problems of poor repeated use performance and inability to separate hot oil wastewater with high temperature. Water-soluble polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) is a water-soluble polymer with good water solubility and viscosity. Cellulose diacetate (CDA) is a regenerated cellulose fiber with biodegradability and hydrophilicity, and its hydrophilicity will vary greatly with the degree of substitution of its acetyl group. Therefore, the use of PLA / PVA / CDA to make oil-water separation membrane material has a wide application prospect.
[0004] At present, many researchers are very concerned about the hydrophilic modification of PLA membrane. Chinese patent CN109847598A discloses a super-hydrophilic self-cleaning oil-water separation membrane and its preparation method and application. The membrane is prepared by coating a super-hydrophilic coating containing carboxylate titanium coordination bond on the surface of a polymer membrane or a non-polymer membrane, which is prepared by reacting plant polyphenol and titanium dioxide precursor. The obtained oil-water separation membrane is super-hydrophilic, which can quickly separate various oil-water layered mixtures and surface-active oil-in-water emulsions. Meanwhile, the photocatalytic degradation property of titanium dioxide makes the membrane have excellent self-cleaning and antifouling performance. Chinese patent CN116036876A discloses a preparation method and application of a super-hydrophobic polylactic acid nanofiber membrane. The membrane with super-hydrophilic and biodegradable properties is produced by optimizing the molecular weight, optical isomer content and mixing ratio of PLA and polyglycolic acid, and spinning the PLA / polyglycolic acid blended fiber at a suitable spinning temperature and spinning speed. The fiber has uniform shape and size, and high orientation degree and crystallinity, and the super-hydrophilic and degradation resistance performance is significantly better than that of ordinary polyglycolic acid nanofiber. The super-hydrophilic coating preparation process of Chinese patent CN109847598A is relatively complicated, and the stability of the coating is insufficient. The molecular weight and mixing ratio of PLA and polyglycolic acid in Chinese patent CN116036876A are not easy to control, and it is difficult to achieve high oil-water separation efficiency. SUMMARY

The specific steps include the following: Step 1: Weigh 80-90 parts of chloroform and 8-10 parts of N,N dimethylformamide according to the mass ratio, mix them evenly to obtain a mixed solvent, weigh 6-8 parts of PLA and dissolve them in the mixed solvent, stir evenly at room temperature, and let it sit overnight to obtain the shell spinning solution; Step 2: Dissolve 5-7 parts of PVA in 100 parts of deionized water according to the mass ratio, and heat in a water bath at 90°C to dissolve it, thus obtaining the core spinning solution; Step 3: According to the mass ratio, connect 6-8 parts of shell spinning solution PLA and 5-7 parts of core spinning solution PVA to the outer and inner layers of the coaxial needle, connect the coaxial needle to the high voltage electrostatic generator for electrospinning, and obtain a core-shell structured nanofiber membrane. Step 4: Mix 80-90 parts of chloroform and 8-10 parts of N,N dimethylformamide according to the mass ratio to obtain a mixed solvent. Weigh 4-6 parts of CDA and dissolve them in the mixed solvent. Stir evenly at room temperature and let it sit overnight to obtain the spinning solution. Step 5: The spinning solution is spun onto a core-shell nanofiber membrane using electrospinning technology to obtain a hydrophilic core-shell nanofiber membrane; Step 6: Immerse the hydrophilic core-shell nanofiber membrane in deionized water and sonicate for 30 minutes, then dry it to obtain a porous hollow hydrophilic polylactic acid nanofiber separation membrane.
