Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of membrane preparation technology, and in particular to a method for preparing a positively charged acid-resistant nanofiltration membrane with high crosslinking density. Background Technology
[0002] The rapid expansion of industries such as textiles, printing and dyeing, mining, metallurgy, and electroplating has generated large amounts of highly acidic wastewater with a pH < 2. This type of wastewater contains strong acids such as H2SO4 and HCl, as well as Cr. 3+ Ni 2+ Cu 2+ Heavy metal ions. Traditional treatment technologies such as adsorption and neutralization have drawbacks such as high energy consumption and inability to recover resources. While membrane composite (TFC) nanofiltration (NF) technology can efficiently separate pollutants, commercial polyamide (PA) membranes are prone to amide bond hydrolysis in acidic environments, leading to membrane structure damage and decreased separation performance.
[0003] Existing technologies for preparing acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes using sulfonyl chloride or cyanuric chloride as organic phase monomers have certain acid resistance properties, but they also have obvious defects: the negative charge on the membrane surface leads to low heavy metal cation rejection rate and poor antifouling performance during long-term operation; or the low reactivity of the monomers results in insufficient membrane crosslinking degree, resulting in poor water flux and rejection performance.
[0004] Hydrophilic cationic polymer polyethyleneimine (PEI) is an ideal material for preparing positively charged nanofiltration membrane functional layers. It can be prepared by interfacial polymerization, electrostatic assembly and other methods. It performs well in cation removal, but there are still shortcomings in the related preparation technology and the existing related patent technology has limitations. For example, patent CN202410046961.X uses low molecular weight amines and PEI as aqueous phase monomers and cyanuric chloride as organic phase monomers to prepare acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes. Although the acid resistance and separation performance are good, the monomer reactivity is low and the interfacial reaction is uneven, making it difficult to apply in practice. CN202010271965.X prepares composite nanofiltration membranes through interfacial polymerization of polyamine polymers and polyisocyanates. Its special cross-linking structure is beneficial to improving acid resistance and water flux, but the cross-linking structure is difficult to control and the monomer reactivity needs to be improved. CN202211410595.9 introduces a new type of polysulfonyl chloride monomer to prepare polysulfonamide acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes, which have good retention effects, but the monomer reactivity is limited and easily leads to selective layer defects. Moreover, the preparation process is complicated and costly, making it impossible to achieve commercial application.
[0005] The most commonly used method for preparing positively charged acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes by reacting PEI with traditional acid-resistant organic monomers still faces three major problems: First, the low reactivity of the monomers leads to defects in the selective layer, resulting in excessively high membrane flux but poor salt retention performance; second, the low degree of crosslinking in the selective layer results in uneven membrane morphology, large pores, and low salt retention rate; third, incomplete interfacial reactions leave a large amount of residual monomers on the membrane surface, resulting in weak positive charge, poor metal cation rejection rate, and poor antifouling properties. Currently, there are few reports on the preparation and application of positively charged PEI acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes, and developing such nanofiltration membranes with high crosslinking degree, high flux, and effective retention of multivalent metal cations remains a challenge.
[0006] For example, Wei et al. reported in a non-patent document (Catalyst-assisted secondary polymerization for fabricating positively charged polysulfonamide hollow fiber nanofiltration membrane with robust acid resistance, Journal of Membrane Science 728 (2025)124119) a method that optimizes the secondary interfacial polymerization process using the nucleophilic catalyst 4-dimethylaminopyridine (DMAP). Although this method significantly enhances the positive charge on the membrane surface and optimizes the pore structure, resulting in a membrane material with a comprehensive water flux of 13.2 L m⁻² h⁻¹ bar⁻¹ and a MgCl₂ rejection rate of 90.8%, the catalytic mechanism of DMAP used in this method is unclear, and DMAP may dissolve in a long-term acidic environment, affecting the membrane lifetime.
[0007] For example, Lai et al. reported in a non-patent document (Highly permeable benzene-trisulfonyl chloride-based polysulfonamide membranes fabricated by interfacial polymerization for acid-resistant nanofiltration, Chemical Engineering Journal 460 (2023)141708) a positively charged acid-resistant nanofiltration membrane prepared by interfacial polymerization of benzene-1,3,5-trisulfonyl chloride (BTSC) with polyethyleneimine (PEI) or piperazine (PIP). Utilizing the π-conjugated structure and high steric hindrance of the BTSC monomer and the high reactivity of the trisulfonyl chloride group, a composite membrane with a highly cross-linked thin-layer structure was obtained, exhibiting excellent water permeability, acid stability, and positive charge characteristics. However, due to the high cost of BTSC monomer and the lack of a clear equilibrium between the BTSC-controlled membrane charging mechanism and pore structure optimization, practical research is insufficient.
[0008] For example, Gu et al. reported a PEI / BCMP composite membrane prepared by gradient crosslinking in a non-patent document (Polyethyleneimine / 4,4'-Bis(chloromethyl)-1,1'-biphenyl nanofiltration membrane for metal ions removal in acidwastewater, Journal of Membrane Science 614 (2020) 118497). Benefiting from the inherent positive charge of PEI and the high acid resistance of the CN single bonds generated during the reaction, the membrane maintained a high rejection rate even after 24 hours of continuous operation under strong acid conditions. However, due to the difficulty in controlling the monomer reaction using only gradient crosslinking, the growth of the membrane structure was insufficient, the degree of crosslinking was limited, the treatment effect on high hydrochloric acid solutions was poor, and the long-term antifouling effect of the membrane was unclear, making industrial application difficult.
[0009] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention discloses a positively charged acid-resistant nanofiltration membrane with high crosslinking density. By optimizing the secondary interfacial polymerization process with an active crosslinking agent, the selective layer structure of conventional PEI acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes is improved, the crosslinking density is increased, and the membrane separation performance and acid resistance are enhanced. This solves the problems of low monomer reactivity and insufficient interfacial reaction in the preparation of conventional PEI acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes. At the same time, it overcomes the difficulties of poor membrane retention, weak acid resistance, and susceptibility to metal contamination in the treatment of industrial high-acid electroplating wastewater. Summary of the Invention

[0031] Beneficial effects In this invention, an active crosslinking agent is introduced during the secondary interfacial polymerization process. This agent generates stable carbon-nitrogen single bonds (-CN-) and ether bonds (-COC-) through specific reactions between its functional groups and the amino groups of PEI, increasing the number of interfacial polymerization crosslinking points and improving the crosslinking density of the selective layer on the membrane surface. This promotes the reduction of the effective pore size within the membrane and enhances the size sieving effect. Furthermore, by further protonating the newly formed positively charged amine bonds (such as benzylamine bonds and quaternary ammonium bonds), the positive charge on the membrane surface can be regulated, which is beneficial for strengthening the Donnan effect and improving the membrane's retention performance for multivalent cations (such as Cr3+, Ni2+, Cu2+, etc.).
[0032] The introduction of the crosslinking agent in this invention can effectively consume and reduce the number of unreacted amine groups on the membrane surface, reduce the hydrophilicity of the membrane surface, thereby alleviating the swelling caused by amine matrix protonation under acidic conditions and significantly improving the acid resistance of the membrane. In addition, the regulation and balance of the membrane surface's hydrophilicity / hydrophobicity and charge also helps to reduce the contamination of the membrane surface by organic matter and metal cations.
[0033] To address the application requirements of PEI acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes, this invention provides a positively charged acid-resistant nanofiltration membrane with high crosslinking density. This membrane improves the selective layer structure of the PEI acid-resistant nanofiltration membrane by optimizing the secondary interfacial polymerization process with an active crosslinking agent, thereby increasing the crosslinking density and enhancing membrane separation performance and acid resistance. This solves problems encountered in the development of PEI acid-resistant nanofiltration membranes, such as low monomer reactivity, insufficient interfacial reaction, low degree of selective layer crosslinking, and uneven pore structure. It also addresses issues such as poor retention, severe metal contamination, and poor acid resistance in membrane materials used for treating high-acid electroplating wastewater in industrial applications.
[0034] The secondary interfacial polymerization process of this invention introduces an active crosslinking agent to construct a high-density, highly stable covalent crosslinking network with the PEI backbone, improving membrane pore size and surface properties. This significantly enhances the initial separation accuracy of the membrane (membrane surface charge ≥ +33mV under acidic conditions of pH=3, and for divalent metal ions Mg...) 2+ Ca 2+ With a rejection rate >98%, the membrane also possesses excellent long-term acid resistance and stability, resulting in a flux decline rate of <15% and a rejection rate retention rate of >96% after 70 days of rigorous operation. Furthermore, the dense, hydrophilic properties of the membrane surface and the strong positive charge distribution can significantly reduce the adsorption of positively charged pollutants on the membrane surface, thereby effectively alleviating metal ion pollution and membrane performance degradation in the treatment of high-acid electroplating wastewater.

[0074] The surface properties of the films prepared in the examples and comparative examples were tested, and the results are as follows: Table 1. Characterization of membrane surface properties
[0075] The data in the table show that using an active crosslinking agent to optimize secondary interfacial polymerization can effectively reduce the functional layer of the membrane, increase the crosslinking density, reduce the pore size and porosity, which is beneficial to improving the membrane's acid resistance; at the same time, it can maintain good hydrophilicity and positive charge, which is beneficial to enhancing the membrane's selectivity and antifouling properties.
[0076] (2) Membrane separation performance The nanofiltration membranes prepared in Examples 1, 7, and 10, and Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3 were evaluated for membrane separation performance under the following conditions: operation at 150 psi for 30 min, with a feed solution concentration of 2350 μs / cm. 2 The results of MgCl2, MgSO4, Na2SO4 and NaCl solutions are as follows: Figure 1 As shown.
[0077] from Figure 1 As can be seen, due to the high crosslinking density and small membrane pore size of each embodiment, the membrane flux is moderate and the salt rejection rate is high; while the comparative examples, due to their larger membrane pore size and greater hydrophilicity, exhibit high flux and low rejection.
[0078] (3) Membrane surface charge characteristics and heavy metal ion removal performance The surface charge of the nanofiltration membranes prepared in Examples 1, 7, and 10, and Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3 was tested and recorded as a function of ambient pH. Simulated electroplating wastewater (containing Cr) was also used. 3+ Ni 2+ Cu 2+ Mn 2+ Zn 2+ The removal performance of the membrane for heavy metal ions was evaluated using a mixed solution (200 ppm each). The results are as follows: Figure 2 , 3 As shown.
[0079] from Figure 2 As can be seen, the surface charge of all nanofiltration membranes changed from positive to negative as pH increased. However, the membranes in each example showed a slower potential decrease under alkaline conditions and could maintain a high positive charge over a wide pH range. In contrast, the comparative example, due to its low crosslinking density and high amine exposure, exhibited the strongest positive charge under acidic conditions but showed significant protonation under alkaline conditions.
[0080] from Figure 3 As can be seen, thanks to the high cross-linking density and small pore characteristics of the membrane surface, the membrane flux of each embodiment is slightly lower, but the rejection rate of heavy metal ions is very high, making it suitable for the treatment of heavy metal wastewater with high requirements.
[0081] (4) Acid resistance of the membrane Nanofiltration membranes prepared in Examples 1, 7, and 10 and Comparative Examples 1, 2, and 3 were used to treat simulated high-acid electroplating wastewater (pH=2.0, containing Cr). 3+ Ni 2+ Cu 2+ The acid resistance stability of the membrane was evaluated by long-term stability tests (200 ppm each). The results are as follows: Figure 4 As shown.
[0082] from Figure 4 As can be seen, the performance degradation of each embodiment is relatively small, and it still retains a high performance of up to 20 L·m⁻² after 70 days of long-term treatment. -2 · h -1 ·bar -1The high flux and approximately 95% heavy metal ion rejection rate are attributed to the high crosslinking density and stable chemical bonds (quaternary ammonium bonds, ether bonds) in each embodiment, which effectively enhance the acid resistance and antifouling properties of the membrane.
