Abstract
To develop porous polymeric membrane, we have used poly(vinylidene-co-hexafluoropropylene) (P(VdF-HFP)) as a host matrix and the ionic liquid 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tosylate as salt for the source of charge carriers in the polymer electrolyte system. Appropriate weight of mica (muscovite) has been added to the highest conducting polymer–salt electrolyte. The composite membrane has been prepared by breath figure method through controlling evaporation time and then tested this membrane for water filtration. The composite polymeric membrane has been characterized by X-ray diffraction, FTIR spectrometry, SEM, and electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The pore volume in the mica-based film has been calculated, and it is found to be 64.3 % in the filler-dispersed membrane.
