Abstract
To meet the separation requirements of polyphenylene sulfide (PPS) membranes in extremely harsh environments and to enhance the separation performance of PPS membrane material, this study utilizes Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF) material with a porous structure to modify the structure of the PPS membranes. Using the Contra-diffusion synthesis method, we successfully created PPS composite membranes that were modified by ZIF-8. At the end of the three-hour reaction time, a continuous and dense layer of ZIF-8 crystals with uniform crystal size and regular crystal shape was produced on the matrix membrane's surface. The permeance to rhodamine B aqueous solution is 42.54 L m−2 h−1 bar−1, and the retention rate is 99.5 %, which has high permeability and retention performance. In the anti-pollution performance test, the composite membrane's flux recovery rate is 72.9 %, which has good anti-pollution performance. After immersion in strong acids, strong alkalis, and a variety of organic solvents, the appearance shows no evident flaws, and the separation performance in strong alkalis and five different types of organic solvents stays steady, demonstrating excellent alkali and solvent resistance. This proves that composite membranes have great potential for application in dye wastewater treatment.
