Abstract
Problems such as increasingly serious water pollution attracted widespread concern. The underwater OCAs of the samples became larger with increasing pH and the under-oil WCAs of the samples did not vary regularly with increasing pH. Nanoneedle structures were grown on metal foam by anodization. Cellulose is fixed to the frame by cross-linking with supramolecular binder poly(vinyl alcohol)/tannin. A cellulose/poly(vinyl alcohol)/tannin porous composite framework with special wettability is prepared. This porous composite framework can be used for the continuous separation of oil/water mixtures with high separation efficiency, high throughput, excellent reusability, and mechanical durability. In addition, due to the coating of cellulose and the supramolecular binder, the pore size of the frame is reduced, and the cagelike structure of the porous framework can promote its demulsification effect. Therefore, the cellulose/poly(vinyl alcohol)/tannic acid porous composite frame can also be used for the separation of oil/water emulsions. This porous frame material has broad application prospects in oil spill treatment and sewage purification.
