AI Technical Summary
Existing composite nanofiltration membranes face challenges in balancing water flux and selectivity. The density of the polyamide layer and the surface roughness of the porous support layer lead to problems such as water molecule mass transfer resistance and pore size unevenness. Furthermore, existing intermediate layer materials such as graphene and MXene are costly and have poor stability, making them difficult to apply on a large scale.
A vermiculite layer is used as an intermediate layer. A carboxylated vermiculite dispersion is formed by preparing a vermiculite dispersion and adding a dicarboxylic acid. The dispersion is then uniformly deposited on the support layer using a filtration technique to form a smooth and defect-free vermiculite layer. This process controls the interfacial polymerization reaction and optimizes the performance of the polyamide layer.
It achieves a significant improvement in water flux and retention rate of composite nanofiltration membranes, solves the problem of flux-selectivity trade-off in traditional composite nanofiltration membranes, and is low in cost and easy to mass-produce.
