用N-(三甲氧基硅丙基)乙二胺三乙酸钠(EDTS)对氧化石墨烯进行修饰,制备出亲水的EDTS-GO纳米复合物。然后通过共混的方式将EDTS-GO添加到PVDF中,制备出EDTS-GO改性PVDF超滤膜。接触角分析和红外光谱结果表明,在相转化过程中EDTS-GO转移至膜表面,PVDF膜表面的亲水性增强。系统考察了不同EDTS-GO添加量对膜性能的影响。膜性能测试表明,随着EDTS-GO添加量的增加,PVDF膜的纯水通量先增大然后降低,当添加量为0.5%时,纯水通量达到最大值,711.2 L·(m^2·h)^-1。此外,抗污染实验表明,EDTS-GO改性的PVDF超滤膜比未改性的PVDF超滤膜具有更强的抗污染性能。
EDTS-GO nanocomposites were prepared by decorating graphene oxide(GO) with N-(trimethoxysilylpropyl) ethylenediaminetriacetic acid sodium(EDTS). Then EDTS-GO modified PVDF ultrafiltration membrane was prepared by introducing EDTS-GO through blending method. Contact angle results indicated that the hydrophilicity of PVDF membrane was improved owing to introducing EDTS-GO. This was due to EDTS-GO transferring to membrane surface during phase inversion, which was confirmed by FTIR. The effect of the EDTS-GO addition content on membrane property was investigated systematically. With an increase in EDTS-GO content, the water flux of EDTS-GO modified PVDF membrane initially increased and then decreased and reached to maximum of 711.2 L·(m^2·h)^-1 in the 0.5% content. Furthermore, antifouling experiment demonstrated EDTS-GO modified PVDF ultrafiltration membrane possessed the stronger fouling-resistant performance than pristine PVDF ultrafiltration membrane.
