BACTERIAL CELLULOSE-POLY(ETHYLENE OXIDE)-POLY(PROPYLENE OXIDE)-POLY(ETHYLENE OXIDE) BLOCK COPOLYMER COMPOSITE MEMBRANE AND MANUFACTURING METHOD THEREOF TECHNICAL FIELD The present invention relates to the technical field of development and modification of bacterial cellulose membrane materials, and in particular to a bacterial cellulose-poly(ethylene oxide)-poly(propylene oxide)-poly(ethylene oxide) block copolymer composite membrane and a manufacturing method thereof. BACKGROUND Bacterial cellulose, also known asf$-1,4 glucan, is a pure cellulose produced by microbes and a branchless straight chain structure off-D-glucose bonded by a$-1,4-glycosidic bond. Bacterial cellulose, as a novel biomaterial, features high water absorption and retention, high gas and liquid permeability, high wet strength, and in situ molding in a wet state due to unique texture structure and "nano effect" thereof. The bacterial cellulose can be used as artificial skin in temporary wound dressing due to excellent biocompatibility, mechanical strength when wet, excellent gas and liquid permeability, and inhibition of skin infection; the bacterial cellulose can serve as food forming agent, thickener, dispersant, anti-melting agent, etc. due to strong hydrophilicity, viscosity, and stability; if bacterial cellulose acetate is added to the pulp, paper strength and durability will be improved to solve a problem of reclamation and recycling of waste paper, where the bacterial cellulose can be used in ordinary pulp to make high-quality special paper. However, strong brittleness and poor flexibility of the bacterial cellulose greatly limit the high value use in promotion of bacterial cellulose membrane material. U.S. Patent No. US2019022634A1 provides an ion exchange membrane and a method for manufacturing same, where a support fiber mat consisting of a laminate is manufactured by electrospinning. The method can simply control the thickness, electroconductivity and mechanical strength of the membrane, and the diameter/ratio of a pore, etc. to be suitable for use in different ion exchanges. Therefore, the ion exchange membrane manufactured by the method can be utilized as a universal ion exchange membrane which has a large ion exchange capacity, a small electrical resistance, and a small diffusion coefficient as well as excellent mechanical strength and durability. However, the method has such disadvantages as complex operation, relatively high cost, and uneasy mass production; moreover, the flexibility of the membrane should be improved. U.S. Patent No. US2019022599AI provides a fluid separation membrane synthesized by an organic polymer layer. The membrane has a fully co-continuous porous structure and high compression strength in the fiber cross-section direction (direction orthogonal to the fiber axis). However, costs of raw materials required in the method are high, the operation is complex, and the separation membrane lacks of certain flexibility. Korean Patent No. KR20180124259A discloses a method for manufacturing a conductive nano-fiber membrane having excellent transparency and flexibility. The method obtains a transparent and flexible nanofiber sheet in an environmentally friendly and economical manner. The conductive nanofiber membrane manufactured is excellent in transparency and flexibility, and has excellent electrification performance, thereby being widely used in electronic materials such as solar cells, transistors, displays, biosensors, gas sensors and the like or functional clothing materials and the like. However, the method has such disadvantages as complex operation, metal introduction, relatively high cost, and large ambient pollution burden. China Patent No. CN107541860A discloses a preparing method and application of a bacterial-cellulose-and-lignin composite fiber membrane. The bacterial-cellulose-and-lignin composite fiber membrane prepared through high-pressure injection with the water needle-steadying method: has the bacterial-cellulose-fiber unique advantages of being high in purity, crystallinity degree and mechanical strength, good in biological compatibility, excellent in water permeability and air permeability and good in liquid keeping performance; also has the stable chemical property after lignin fibers are treated at the high temperature; has nontoxic, tasteless, non-pollution and radioactivity-free excellent qualities; is an environment-friendly product; has the good tenacity and dispersity and the super-high water absorbing capacity; and has the quite-excellent thickening anti-cracking performance. A composite fiber mask prepared in the mode that the prepared composite fiber membrane serves as a mask substrate is thin in thin layer, better in moisturizing gas permeability, and the skin friendly performance and the liquid containing performance are further improved. However, the membrane has poor flexibility. China Patent No. CN108232085A discloses a bacterial cellulose diaphragm coated with polyionic liquid and a preparation method thereof. Nanofibers of the bacterial cellulose diaphragm is coated with polyionic liquid (imidazolium salt, pyrrolidine salt, piperidine salt, and quaternary ammonium salt) on the surface, a hot press is utilized to press the bacterial cellulose diaphragm to be thin, and after drying, the polyionic liquid-coated bacterial cellulose diaphragm is obtained. The bacterial cellulose diaphragm has the advantages of high mechanical strength, good thermal stability, good lyophilic property, and high porosity; the preparation method thereof is simple and has low requirement on equipment; however, the method costs highly and is not eco-friendly, and the flexibility of the bacterial cellulose diaphragm should be improved. China Patent No. CN109097418A discloses a method for in situ preparation of an antibacterial bacterial cellulose membrane. Folium Mori protein is prepared from the Folium Mori by using an alkaline extraction acid precipitation method, residues are hydrolyzed into monosaccharide by using dilute sulfuric acid, Folium Mori hydrolysate containing an antimicrobial substance is obtained after mixture, then the Folium Mori hydrolysate is used as carbon and nitrogen source and an antimicrobial raw material, and Acetobacter xylinum is inoculated to prepare the antibacterial bacterial cellulose membrane. The method is simple, and the cost is low; the antibacterial property of the bacterial cellulose membrane prepared is stable, and antibacterial substances are not easily lost. However, the bacterial cellulose membrane is less flexible, limiting further use thereof in other fields. China Patent No. CN107082903A discloses a modification method for a bacterial cellulose membrane. The method firstly mixes bacterial cellulose with epichlorohydrin to perform a substitution reaction to introduce an epoxy group, then carries out grafting with p-cyclodextrin under an alkaline condition, introduces the hydrophilic molecule #-cyclodextrin with hydrophobic inner cavities, and makes the bacterial cellulose with an amphiphilic nature that can both contain hydrophilic small molecules and hydrophobic molecules without damaging original properties of the bacterial cellulose. The method has the advantages that the natural release rate and the transdermal release rate of hydrophobic small molecule vitamin E and tea tree oil are significantly increased, and has great application prospects in the field of skin care products. However, the method is complex to operate, and increases time and reaction costs, with poor controllability of the reaction. China Patent No. CN104262662A discloses a method for improving the plasticity and flexibility of a bacterial cellulose membrane. In the method, an initial bacterial cellulose wet membrane sample is soaked in alkaline liquor and then soaked and purified in deionized water; the purified bacterial cellulose membrane is soaked into polyether amine salt solutions, followed by oscillating and compounding for 24 h at room temperature. The compounded cellulose membrane is increased by 11.45 times. In the method, polyether amide salt is used as a curing agent, which enhances the elasticity and toughness of the mixture, and as an excellent adhesive, can achieve the plasticity and flexibility of the bacterial cellulose membrane better. The method is simple and easy to operate; however, polyether amide is toxic; meanwhile, hydrochloric acid is further used as an acid solvent in preparing the polyether amine salt, where pollution occurs largely during treatment, with high relative treatment costs. In conclusion, bacterial cellulose, as an abundant biomass resource, limits the use thereof due to poor flexibility and plasticity thereof. Therefore, a bacterial cellulose membrane with high flexibility, high strength, environmental protection, and low cost will further achieve high value added utilization of the bacterial cellulose.
