摘要

Abstract

Layer-by-layer (LbL) assembly technology is a facile method for constructing thin film composite membrane. Herein

a novel nanofiltration (NF) membrane was prepared by LbL assembly of polyethyleneimine (PEI) and sodium lignosulfonate (LS) followed by cross-linking. The surface composition

morphology

and property of PEI/LS bilayer were detailedly investigated by FTIR/ATR

XPS

SEM

AFM

and water contact angle test. The PEI/LS bilayer full of amino and hydroxyl groups presents increased roughness and improved hydrophilicity. Moreover

the NF performance of PEI/LS LbL assembly membranes can be modulated by bilayer number

polyelectrolyte concentration

and salt content. The water flux reduced while the salt rejection greatly improved as increasing the bilayer numbers

PEI concentration

or NaCl content. More than 95% MgSO

and MgCl

as well as 80% NaCl can be rejected by a NF membrane prepared by 6 PEI/LS bilayers

1 wt% PEI

0.5 wt% LS

and 1 mol/L NaCl. Furthermore

this NF membrane can be used to remove more than 95% heavy metal ions (Cd

and Ni

). This work proposed a promising NF membrane by using PEI/LS as low cost polyelectrolytes and facile LbL assembly method

which should receive much attention in water purification.
