TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) materials exhibit great potential in gas separation, ion separation and other fields due to their high specific surface area and adjustable pore structure. Mixing MOFs materials with membrane matrix materials to prepare mixed matrix membranes is a current research hotspot. Among them, the hollow fiber membrane form has the advantages of high packing density and good separation efficiency.
[0003] However, the preparation of existing MOFs mixed matrix membranes faces many challenges, including the easy agglomeration of MOFs nanoparticles in the casting solution, which leads to the formation of non-selective defects in the membrane; at high MOFs loading, the viscosity of the casting solution increases sharply, which causes problems such as broken filaments during the preparation of mixed matrix membranes, especially hollow fiber membranes, and reduces the yield of finished products.
[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need in the art to develop a new MOFs modified hollow fiber membrane formula and process to achieve good dispersion of MOFs particles, improve the spinnability of the spinning solution, and ultimately obtain MOFs hollow fiber membranes with excellent separation performance.
[0005] Chinese patent CN119793218A provides a surface coating in-situ modified hollow fiber membrane material and a preparation method thereof. The preparation method comprises the following steps: step 1, preparing a casting solution; the casting solution is used to prepare a hollow fiber membrane filament precursor through a spinning process; step 2, the hollow fiber membrane filament precursor is sequentially subjected to an air gap, a cooling pool and a solvent exchange pool to obtain a semi-finished product membrane; the cooling liquid in the cooling pool is an ethylene glycol aqueous solution treated by plasma; step 3, the semi-finished product membrane is subjected to surface treatment again by plasma to obtain a hollow fiber membrane containing a surface polyethylene glycol coating structure. The present application fully utilizes the components of the cooling liquid and combines plasma polymerization treatment to in-situ modify the surface of the hollow fiber membrane, and quickly and efficiently form a polyethylene glycol coating on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane; however, the preparation method of the modified membrane is complicated, and the operation cost is high.

[0007] In view of the above, it is necessary to develop a MOFs particle that can achieve good dispersion, improve the spinnability of the spinning solution, and ultimately obtain a MOFs hollow fiber membrane with excellent separation performance.
[0008] In view of the above, it is necessary to develop a MOFs particle that can achieve good dispersion, improve the spinnability of the spinning solution, and ultimately obtain a MOFs hollow fiber membrane with excellent separation performance. SUMMARY

[0050] 2) The deaerated casting solution is drawn into a Teledyne ISCO 1000D high-pressure, high-precision plunger pump (i.e., hollow fiber membrane device) through a PFA 1 / 4 tube. Figure 1 (As shown below, degas for 6 hours);
[0051] 3) Connect the high-pressure, high-precision plunger pump to the spinneret via a pipeline ( Figure 1 The separate spinneret in the device is installed and then placed on a support for fixation. The Teledyne ISCO 1000D high-pressure, high-precision plunger pump is run, with an initial internal volume reading (obtained from the device surface) of 1015 mL.

[0064] 3) The above-mentioned deaerated casting solution was drawn into a Teledyne ISCO 1000D high-pressure, high-precision plunger pump through a PFA 1 / 4 tube for deaeration for 6 hours;
[0065] 4) Connect the high-pressure, high-precision plunger pump to the spinneret via a pipeline ( Figure 1 The separate spinneret in the device is installed and then placed on a support for fixation. The Teledyne ISCO 1000D high-pressure, high-precision plunger pump is run, with an initial internal volume reading (obtained from the device surface) of 1015 mL.

[0067] 6) After spinning, the membrane fibers are soaked in pure water, and the water is changed every hour. After changing the pure water twice, the membrane is soaked overnight.

[0068] 1. Figure 2 Scanning electron microscope (SEM) images of the MOF-808-modified hollow fiber membrane MH-2 prepared according to this invention are presented and compared with the PVDF hollow fiber membrane MH-0. From the surface images (top left 1 and bottom left 1), it can be seen that the MOF-808 particles are successfully and uniformly distributed on the surface of the hollow fiber membrane without obvious agglomeration, forming a well-dispersed composite structure. This uniform distribution not only demonstrates the good compatibility between MOF and the polymer matrix during the modification process, but also provides the membrane with more potential active sites and functionalized surfaces, which are expected to significantly enhance its separation performance, antifouling ability, or catalytic performance. In contrast, the MH-0 membrane surface exhibits a typical polymer porous structure, and no features similar to inorganic particle modification were observed, further highlighting the innovative core of this invention: achieving functionalized membrane structure design through controllable loading of MOF-808.
[0069] 2. To demonstrate the separation capability of the MOF-808 modified hollow fiber membrane in this invention, cross-flow filtration was used to measure the water flux of different membranes MH-0, MH-1, and MH-2. Figure 3 As shown in Table 1, the water flux of the membrane increased due to the introduction of MOF-808.
[0070] Table 1: Pure water flux and water contact angle values of the original PVDF membrane and MOF-808 hollow fiber membrane
[0071] Membrane Water flux Water contact angle MH-0 190 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·bar -1 ]]> 65.2° MH-1 224 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·bar -1 ]]> 60.5° MH-2 287 L·m -2 ·h -1 ·bar -1 ]]> 52.3°
[0072] 3. Different dyes in water were separated using the MH-2 membrane, which has the highest flux. These dyes included: Eriochrome Black T (EBT), Congo Red (CR), Methylene Blue (MB), and Acid Red-66 (AR-66). The dye concentration was 30 mg / L for all dyes. The permeate flux and rejection rate of the MH-2 membrane for filtering different dyes are as follows: Figure 4 As shown.
[0073] The above embodiments are merely illustrative of the principles and effects of the present invention and are not intended to limit the invention. Any person skilled in the art can modify or alter the above embodiments without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention. Therefore, all equivalent modifications or alterations made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and technical concept disclosed in the present invention should still be covered by the claims of the present invention.
