摘要
Nanofibrillated cellulose (NFC)-based aerogels are ideal oil-sorbent materials, but the poor structural stability and hydrophilicity restrain their practical applications in the fields of oil/water separation. In the present work, we report a facile strategy for constructing a hydrophobic nanofibrillated cellulose aerogel for cyclic oil/water separation. Briefly, an aerogel matrix of C-g-PEI with multiple cross-linked network structures was constructed via the combined use of oxidized-NFC (ONC), polyethyleneimine (PEI), and ethylene glycol diglycidyl ether (EGDE), followed by rapid in situ deposition of poly(methyl trichlorosilane) (PMTS) through a low-temperature gas-solid reaction. The resulting ONC-based aerogel (C-g-PEI-PMTS) exhibits the advantages of ultralight (53.80 mg/cm3), high porosity (95.73 %), hydrophobicity (contact angle of 130.0°) and remarkable elasticity (95.86 %). Meanwhile, the composite aerogel of C-g-PEI-PMTS is extremely suitable for oil sorption-desorption by a simple mechanical squeezing method. After 10 cycles of sorption-desorption, the sorption capacity of the aerogel towards various oils reached almost the same level as in the first cycle. The filtration separation efficiency for the trichloromethane-water mixtures remained at 99 % after 50 cycles, demonstrating encouraging reusability. In summary, an efficient strategy to prepare NFC-based aerogel with highly compressible and hydrophobic properties is developed, which expands the applications of NFC in the fields of oil/water separation.
