Controlled synthesis of polymer-based porous membranes via innovative methods is of considerable interest, yet it remains a challenge. Herein, we established a general approach to fabricate porous polyelectrolyte composite membranes (PPCMs) from poly(ionic liquid) (PIL) and MXene via an ice-assisted method. This process enabled the formation of a uniformly distributed macroporous structure within the membrane. The unique characteristics of the as-produced composite membranes display significant light-to-heat conversion and excellent performance for solar-driven water vapor generation. This facile synthetic strategy breaks new ground for developing composite porous membranes as high-performance solar steam generators for clean water production.
通过创新方法可控合成聚合物基多孔膜备受关注,但仍是一项挑战。在此,我们建立了一种通用方法,通过冰辅助法由聚离子液体(PIL)和MXene制备多孔聚电解质复合膜(PPCM)。该过程使膜内形成均匀分布的大孔结构。所制备复合膜的独特特性表现出显著的光热转换性能以及用于太阳能驱动水蒸气产生的优异性能。这种简便的合成策略为开发作为用于清洁水生产的高性能太阳能蒸汽发生器的复合多孔膜开辟了新途径。
