Smart surfaces with switchable superoleophilicity and superoleophobicity in aqueous media: toward controllable oilwater separation
Advanced materials with surfaces that have controllable oil wettability when submerged in aqueous media have great potential for various underwater applications. Here we have developed smart surfaces on commonly used materials, including non-woven textiles and polyurethane sponges, which are able to switch between superoleophilicity and superoleophobicity in aqueous media. The smart surfaces ar...
متن کاملThermo-responsive brush copolymers with structure-tunable LCST and switchable surface wettability
Thermo-responsive brush copolymers poly(methyl methacrylate (MMA)-co-2-(2-bromoisobutyryloxy) ethyl methacrylate (BIEM)-graft-(N-isopropyl-acrylamide) (NIPAAm)) were synthesized using Cumediated “living” radical polymerization (LRP) approach. Varied grafting densities of the brushes were obtained through adjusting backbone structure as random, gradient and block respectively. The effect of graf...
متن کاملElectricity-induced switchable wettability and controllable water permeation based on 3D copper foam.
A novel and simple method to realize the switch between superhydrophobicity and superhydrophilicity on a (N-dodecyltrimethoxysilane)-modified 3D copper foam by electrode processes is reported. Such electricity-induced switchable wettability with rapid responsiveness and wide-range variation can be applicable in controllable water permeation and other relevant areas.
متن کاملReversed thermo-switchable molecular sieving membranes composed of two-dimensional metal-organic nanosheets for gas separation
It is highly desirable to reduce the membrane thickness in order to maximize the throughput and break the trade-off limitation for membrane-based gas separation. Two-dimensional membranes composed of atomic-thick graphene or graphene oxide nanosheets have gas transport pathways that are at least three orders of magnitude higher than the membrane thickness, leading to reduced gas permeation flux...
متن کاملPickering emulsions stabilized by cellulose nanocrystals grafted with thermo-responsive polymer brushes.
Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) from ramie fibers are studied as stabilizers of oil-in-water emulsions. The phase behavior of heptane and water systems is studied, and emulsions stabilized by CNCs are analyzed by using drop sizing (light scattering) and optical, scanning, and freeze-fracture electron microscopies. Water-continuous Pickering emulsions are produced with cellulose nanocrystals (0.05...
