In pursuit of an ideal emulsion separation membrane that combines high separation efficiency and mechanical properties
a bilayer compounded membrane was fabricated by electrospinning polytetrafluoroethylene (fPTFE) emulsion onto an ePTFE substrate. The compounded membrane possesses the superior separation performance of fPTFE alongside the mechanical properties of ePTFE
showing comprehensive performances.
In order to achieve efficient and durable oil-water emulsion separation
the membranes possessing high separation efficiency and mechanical strength attract extensive attention and are in great demand. In present study
a kind of polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE)-based bilayer membrane was fabricated by electrospinning fibrous PTFE (fPTFE) on an expanded PTFE (ePTFE) substrate. The morphological observation revealed that the fibrous structure of the fPTFE layer could be tailored by controlling the formulation of spinning solution. The addition of appropriate polyoxyethylene (PEO) would make the fibers in the fPTFE layer finer and more uniform. As a result
the compounded membrane exhibited a small pore size of approximately 1.25 μm and a substantial porosity nearing 80%. This led to super-hydrophobicity
characterized by a high water contact angle (WCA) of 149.8°
and facilitated rapid oil permeation. The water-in-oil emulsion separation experiment further confirmed that the compounded membrane not only had a high separation efficiency closing 100%
but such an outstanding separation capacity could be largely retained
either through multiple cycles of use or through strong acid (pH=1)
strong alkali (pH=12)
or high-temperature (100 °C) treatment. Additionally
the mechanical behavior of the bilayer membrane was basically contributed by that of each layer in terms of their volume ratio. More significantly
the poor creep resistance of fPTFE layer was suppressed by compounding with ePTFE substrate. Hence
this study has laid the groundwork for a novel approach to create PTFE-based compounded membranes with exceptional overall characteristics
showing promise for applications in the realm of emulsion separation.
