The fabrication of a continuous and uniform organosilica membrane on a porous polymer substrate was achieved via a facile and technologically scalable flow-induced deposition (FD) approach. The uniformity of the thickness of an organosilica separation layer on a polymer surface with a large area was improved significantly via this two-step FD approach. Meanwhile, the optimal concentration of the organosilica used in membrane preparation was also investigated. This polymer-supported organosilica layered-hybrid membrane showed a high level of NaCl rejection (97.5-99%) in the reverse osmosis desalination of a 2000 ppm NaCl solution at an operating pressure of 3 MPa. This membrane also exhibited good stability and flexibility when rolled into a curvature radius of 11 mm.
通过一种简单且具有技术扩展性的流致沉积(FD)方法,在多孔聚合物基底上制备了连续且均匀的有机硅膜。通过两步 FD 方法,显著提高了大面积聚合物表面上有机硅分离层厚度的均匀性。同时,还研究了膜制备中有机硅的最佳浓度。这种聚合物支撑的有机硅层状杂化膜在操作压力为 3 MPa 时,对 2000 ppm NaCl 溶液的反渗透脱盐表现出高的 NaCl 截留率(97.5-99%)。当膜被卷成曲率半径为 11 毫米时,该膜还表现出良好的稳定性和柔韧性。
