Abstract
As oily wastewater issues continue to grow, the treatment of oily wastewater has become urgent an emergency. However, present solutions are restricted by the limited performance of materials. An UV-resist and transparent coating consisting of PDMS and ZnO decorated on a highly stable and self-standing polyimide is reported in this work as a potential solution. The obtained fibrous membranes not only allow high-efficiency (higher than 99%) oily wastewater separation but also show superior UV-resistant activity. Moreover, the superoleophilicity and hydrophobicity of the composite membrane were confirmed to be stable under harsh conditions, and the transparent coating layer has the potential to be applied in other fields. The design of the UV-resistant, transparent and superoleophilic nanofibrous membrane is very practical, and will be quite promising for reducing oily environmental contaminations from waters.
