Abstract
Membrane technology is an essential tool for water treatment and biomedical applications. Despite their extensive use in these fields, polymeric-based membranes still face several challenges, including instability, low mechanical strength, and propensity to fouling. The latter point has attracted the attention of numerous teams worldwide developing antifouling materials for membranes and interfaces. A convenient method to prepare antifouling membranes is via physical blending (or simply blending), which is a one-step method that consists of mixing the main matrix polymer and the antifouling material prior to casting and film formation by a phase inversion process. This review focuses on the recent development (past 10 years) of antifouling membranes via this method and uses different phase-inversion processes including liquid-induced phase separation, vapor induced phase separation, and thermally induced phase separation. Antifouling materials used in these recent studies including polymers, metals, ceramics, and carbon-based and porous nanomaterials are also surveyed. Furthermore, the assessment of antifouling properties and performances are extensively summarized. Finally, we conclude this review with a list of technical and scientific challenges that still need to be overcome to improve the functional properties and widen the range of applications of antifouling membranes prepared by blending modification.

MEMBRANES 2021; 12:membranes12010059. [PMID: 35054583 PMCID: PMC8779256 DOI: 10.3390/membranes12010059] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 0.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 11/18/2021] [Revised: 12/19/2021] [Accepted: 12/28/2021] [Indexed: 11/16/2022]
Abstract
Salts, organic materials, and hazardous materials can be found regularly in the effluent from a desalter unit of crude oil. These materials should be separated from the wastewater. Four kinds of inexpensive and innovative ceramic microfiltration membranes (mullite, mullite-alumina (MA 50%), mullite-alumina-zeolite (MAZ 20%), and mullite-zeolite (MZ 40%)) were synthesized in this research using locally available inexpensive raw materials such as kaolin clay, natural zeolite, and alpha-alumina powders. Analyses carried out on the membranes include XRD, SEM, void fraction, the average diameter of the pores, and the ability to withstand mechanical stress. Effluent from the desalter unit was synthesized in the laboratory using the salts most present in the desalter wastewater (NaCl, MgCl2, and CaCl2) and crude oil. This synthesized wastewater was treated with prepared ceramic membranes. It was discovered that different salt concentrations (0, 5000, 25,000, 50,000, 75,000, and 100,000 mg L−1) affected the permeate flux (PF), oil rejection, and ion rejection by the membrane. Results showed that in a lower concentration of salts (5000 and 25,000 mg L−1), PF of all types of ceramic membranes was increased significantly, while in the higher concentration, PF declined due to polarization concentration and high fouling effects. Oil and ion rejection was increased slightly by increasing salt dosage in wastewater due to higher ionic strength. Monovalent (Na+) and multivalent (Ca2+ and Mg2+) ion rejection was reported about 5 to 13%, and 23 to 40% respectively. Oil rejection varied from 96.2 to 99.2%.

Improved permeability and antifouling performance of polyethersulfone ultrafiltration membranes tailored by hydroxyapatite/boron nitride nanocomposites. CHEMOSPHERE 2021; 268:129306. [PMID: 33360002 DOI: 10.1016/j.chemosphere.2020.129306] [Citation(s) in RCA: 15] [Impact Index Per Article: 5.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [MESH Headings] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 08/03/2020] [Revised: 12/05/2020] [Accepted: 12/11/2020] [Indexed: 06/12/2023]
Abstract
To extend the use of polyethersulfone (PES) ultrafiltration membranes in water process engineering, the membrane's wettability and anti-fouling properties should be further improved. In this context, hydroxyapatite/boron nitride (HAp/BN) nanocomposites have been prepared and intercalated into PES membranes using a non-solvent-induced phase separation process. High-quality 2D transparent boron nitride nanosheets (BN NSs) were prepared using an environmentally friendly and green-template assisted synthesis method in which 1D hexagonal hydroxyapatite nanosheets (HAp NRs) were uniformly distributed and hydrothermally immobilized at 180 °C. SEM, XRD, and Raman spectroscopy techniques were used to characterize the HAp/BN nanocomposites. PES membranes intercalated with various nanocomposite amounts (0-4 wt %) were also characterized by permeability, porosity, and contact angle measurements. Additional pathways for water molecule transport were promoted by the high surface area of the BN NSs, resulting in high permeability. Membrane wettability and antifouling properties were also improved by the inclusion of negative charge groups (OH- and PO43-) on HAp. Hybrid membranes containing 4 wt% HAp/BN showed the best overall performance with ∼97% increase in water flux, 90% rejection of bovine serum albumin (BSA), high water flux recovery ratio, low irreversible fouling, and high reversible fouling pattern. The intercalation of HAp/BN with the PES matrix therefore opens up a new direction to enhance the PES UF membranes' hydrophilicity, water flux, and antifouling capacity.

Abstract
The additive manufacturing of energetic materials has received worldwide attention. Here, an ink formulation is developed with only 10 wt% of polymers, which can bind a 90 wt% nanothermite using a simple direct-writing approach. The key additive in the ink is a hybrid polymer of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) and hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose (HPMC) in which the former serves as an energetic initiator and a binder, and the latter is a thickening agent and the other binder, which can form a gel. The rheological shear-thinning properties of the ink are critical to making the formulation at such high loadings printable. The Young's modulus of the printed stick is found to compare favorably with that of poly(tetrafluoroethylene) (PTFE), with a particle packing density at the theoretical maximum. The linear burn rate, mass burn rate, flame temperature, and heat flux are found to be easily adjusted by varying the fuel/oxidizer ratio. The average flame temperatures are as high as ≈2800 K with near-complete combustion being evident upon examination of the postcombustion products.
