Graphene Oxide (GO) is a derivative of Graphene, and is generally prepared by an improved Hummers method, and the structure of the GO is considered that a large number of oxygen-containing functional groups (such as hydroxyl, carboxyl, epoxy, carbonyl and the like) are embedded on the surface and the edge of Graphene, and the GO is similar to the structure of aquaporins, has good hydrophilicity and ion recognition functions, and has high specific surface area and high reactivity, so that Graphene Oxide is an ideal separation membrane material.
Based on the current situation, the embodiment of the invention provides a reverse osmosis membrane and a preparation method thereof, which aim to solve the problem of low water yield in the water treatment process. Referring to fig. 1 and 3, the reverse osmosis membrane includes: the supporting layer 2, the supporting layer 2 comprises a flat ultrafiltration membrane; a functional layer 1 formed on a support layer 2, the functional layer 1 comprising stacked overlapping graphene oxide sheets. In a section electron microscope image of the reverse osmosis membrane shown in fig. 3, the upper right part is a section of the support layer 2, the middle part is a section of the functional layer 1 from the upper left to the lower right along a diagonal of the image, and the lower left part is a surface of the functional layer 1.
In the reverse osmosis membrane provided by the embodiment of the invention, graphene oxide has good hydrophilicity and an ion recognition function, the functional layer 1 adopts the stacked and overlapped graphene oxide to form a layered film, so that a selective two-dimensional nano channel can be formed between graphene oxide sheet layers, and a high-speed transmission channel is provided for water molecules, thereby realizing high-efficiency water treatment and increasing the water yield in the water treatment process. Meanwhile, the two-dimensional nanochannel formed by the stacked and overlapped graphene oxide can prevent macromolecules from passing through, and the support layer 2 with the flat ultrafiltration membrane can also separate solute molecules with small and medium apertures in water, so that the separation performance of the reverse osmosis membrane is greatly improved under the combined action of the functional layer 1 and the support layer 2. In addition, the graphene oxide interlayer has strong hydrogen bonds, so that the graphene oxide interlayer has good mechanical properties and high mechanical strength, can continuously run under high operating pressure, and also has good cleaning resistance.
The functional layer 1 is formed by stacking and overlapping graphene oxide with a sheet structure, so that the flatness of stacking and the tightness of overlapping have great influence on the separation performance of the functional layer 1, and the main factors determining the flatness and tightness are the basic sheet size of the graphene oxide and the processing method. The size of the sheet diameter of the graphene oxide sheet has a large influence on the stability of the stacked functional layer 1, the sheet diameter is too small, and the graphene oxide sheet is poor in lap joint and easy to fall off; the sheet diameter is too large, and graphene oxide in the dispersion liquid is easy to agglomerate and precipitate in the preparation process, so that the selection of the graphene oxide sheet with a proper size is very important for forming the reverse osmosis membrane with good performance. Illustratively, the sheet diameter of the graphene oxide sheet can be 8-20 μm, or the sheet diameter of the graphene oxide sheet can also be 8-10 μm, 8-15 μm, 10-15 μm, 12-17 μm, 15-20 μm and the like, and the number of layers of the graphene oxide sheet can be 2-10, or the graphene oxide sheet with the number of layers of 2-5, 5-10, 2-8, 8-10, 4-7 or 6-9 can also be selected.
The thickness of the functional layer 1 formed by stacking and overlapping the graphene oxide sheets may be in the range of 0.1 to 0.5 μm, and may be, for example, 0.1 μm, 0.2 μm, 0.3 μm, 0.4 μm, 0.5 μm, or the like.
In some embodiments, the surface pore size of the selected flat ultrafiltration membrane can be 0.1-1 μm.
In some embodiments, the functional layer 1 and the support layer 2 may be bonded by an adhesive, and the adhesive may include any one or more of polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone, and polyvinyl alcohol, that is, one of the adhesives described above may be used, or a mixture of two or more of the adhesives described above may be used as the adhesive.
Referring to fig. 4, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a method for preparing a reverse osmosis membrane, which is used for preparing the reverse osmosis membrane, and the method for preparing the reverse osmosis membrane comprises: compounding the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide on the surface of a support layer 2 to form a composite membrane, wherein the support layer comprises a flat ultrafiltration membrane; and (3) performing coordination ion reinforcement on the composite membrane to obtain the required reverse osmosis membrane.
After graphene oxide is stacked to form a film, the stability of the film structure in a water phase is poor, and the stacked structure is easily decomposed and re-dispersed in a solvent, so that the separation performance of the graphene oxide is lost. According to the preparation method of the reverse osmosis membrane provided by the embodiment of the invention, the functional layer 1 is further reinforced by utilizing chemical crosslinking through the coordination ion reinforcement of the composite membrane, so that the prepared reverse osmosis membrane has higher stability and firmness. The beneficial effects of the reverse osmosis membrane prepared by the preparation method of the reverse osmosis membrane provided by the embodiment of the invention are the same as those of the reverse osmosis membrane provided by the embodiment of the invention, and are not repeated herein.
Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, before the step of combining the dispersion of graphene oxide on the surface of the support layer 2 to form the composite film, a step of preparing the dispersion of graphene oxide is further included, and the step includes: s11, dispersing graphene oxide in a dispersing agent, and adding a layer expanding stabilizing agent to form a dispersion liquid precursor; and S12, adding an alkali solution, such as ammonia water, a strong sodium oxide solution and the like, into the dispersion liquid precursor to enable the pH value of the dispersion liquid precursor to reach 7-9, and obtaining the required dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide.
In some embodiments, the mass concentration of the graphene oxide in the prepared dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide is 0.1-5 mg/ml, and for example, may be 0.1mg/ml, 5mg/ml, 2.5mg/ml, 1mg/ml, 2mg/ml, 3mg/ml, 4mg/ml, and the like.
The graphene oxide can be dispersed in various reagents, but the dispersion state of the graphene oxide sheets in the reagents directly affects the performance of the functional layer 1, so that an appropriate dispersant needs to be selected to improve the dispersion effect of the graphene oxide. Illustratively, any one of water, ethanol, and N-methylpyrrolidone may be selected as the dispersant to improve the dispersion effect of the graphene oxide. In the actual operation process, the dispersion effect of the graphene oxide is better by stirring and ultrasonic processing the solution.
Because the graphene oxide is easy to agglomerate, the retention rate is reduced, and therefore, in some embodiments, a small amount of a layer expanding stabilizer can be added into the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide, so that the graphene oxide is smoothly lapped, the water flux is increased, the stability of the dispersion liquid is facilitated, and the difficulty in preparation and processing is reduced. The layer expanding stabilizer can be any one of sodium deoxycholate, sodium dodecyl benzene sulfonate and sodium polystyrene sulfonate, and the mass percentage of the layer expanding stabilizer in the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide can be 0.1-5%.
Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, before the step of compounding the dispersion of graphene oxide on the surface of the support layer 2 to form the composite membrane, a step of treating the flat ultrafiltration membrane of the support layer 2 is further included, where the step includes: s2, the flat ultrafiltration membrane is put into the aqueous solution of the adhesive, soaked and dried. The mass percentage of the adhesive in the aqueous solution of the adhesive is 1 to 10%, and may be, for example, 1%, 3%, 5%, 6%, 8%, 10%, or the like. The adhesive can be one or more selected from polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyvinyl alcohol.
In some embodiments, the flat plate ultrafiltration membrane of support layer 2 may be a polysulfone or polyethersulfone material. Because the surface tension of the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide is different from that of a flat ultrafiltration membrane (polysulfone/polyethersulfone membrane) of the support layer 2, if the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide is directly compounded on the support layer 2, the dispersion liquid may be in a fog drop shape on the surface of the support layer 2 and cannot form a membrane, so the support layer 2 needs to be treated, amphiphilic substances such as polyethylene glycol, polyvinylpyrrolidone and polyvinyl alcohol are used as adhesives to modify the surface of the support layer 2, the surface roughness of the support layer 2 is improved, the surface tension of the support layer 2 is closer to that of the dispersion liquid of the graphene oxide, the lipophilic group of the adhesives is microscopically combined with the support layer 2, and the hydrophilic group can be combined with the graphene oxide subsequently compounded on the surface of the support layer 2, so that the support layer 2 and the functional layer 1 are firmly adhered together. Therefore, the pretreatment of the support layer 2 is beneficial to the spreading of the graphene oxide on the surface of the support layer 2 and the firm bonding of the graphene oxide and the support layer.
Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the step of compounding the dispersion of graphene oxide on the surface of the support layer 2 to form the composite film includes: s3, spraying the dispersion of graphene oxide on the surface of the support layer 2. In actual operation, a spraying method can be adopted to prepare the graphene oxide composite film, a spray gun is used as a spraying tool, graphene oxide sheets are stacked and continuously formed into a film by means of spraying pressure, the pressure of the spraying tool and the surface tension of the supporting layer 2 influence the structure of the composite film, illustratively, the spraying pressure is 0.1-0.5 MPa, the spraying effect is good, and the spraying pressure can be 0.1MPa, 0.5MPa, 0.25MPa, 0.3MPa and the like. The spraying time can be 1-10 s, for example, 1s, 10s, 5s, 2s, 3s, 6s, 7s or 8 s. The longer the spraying time, the higher the dispersion concentration of the graphene oxide, and the thicker the thickness of the functional layer formed.
Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, after the step of forming the composite membrane by compositing the dispersion of graphene oxide on the surface of the support layer 2, and before the step of performing coordination ion strengthening on the composite membrane to obtain the desired reverse osmosis membrane, the method further includes a step of performing thermal reduction treatment on the composite membrane, where the step includes: s4, heating the composite film in vacuum at 60-80 ℃ for 30-45 min, and then cooling to room temperature. Since the graphene oxide has a hydrophilic group, the formed functional layer 1 is applied in a water environment, the graphene oxide is easy to float and separate, and after the thermal reduction step, the stability of the graphene oxide can be increased, and the function of reinforcing the functional layer 1 is achieved.
Although the preliminarily prepared graphene oxide composite membrane has a separation function, the graphene oxide membrane is easy to cause structural collapse of the functional layer 1 along with water loss due to the fact that the graphene oxide membrane contains a large number of hydrophilic groups and runs in a long-term water environment, and the functional layer 1 is easy to peel off due to the fact that amphiphilic substances such as adhesives and the like are lost along with water, so that the formed composite membrane can be further reinforced. Referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the step of subjecting the composite membrane to complex ion strengthening to obtain the desired reverse osmosis membrane comprises: s51, placing the composite membrane into a reaction solution to carry out a coordination ion strengthening reaction; the reaction solution comprises a coordination ion aqueous solution and ethanol with the same volume as the coordination ion aqueous solution; and S52, performing shower on the composite membrane by using ethanol, and standing the composite membrane for a certain time to obtain the required reverse osmosis membrane.
In some embodiments, the complex ion aqueous solution may include any one or more of a calcium chloride solution, a magnesium chloride solution, and an aluminum chloride solution, that is, one of the complex ion aqueous solutions described above may be selected, or a mixture containing two or more of the complex ion aqueous solutions described above may be selected as the complex ion aqueous solution. The mass percentage of the solute in the complex ion aqueous solution is 3 to 10%, and for example, the mass percentage of the solute may be 3%, 10%, 6%, 7%, 5%, or the like.
In practical operation, the complex ion strengthening reaction can be performed at room temperature, and the reaction time can be 1-4 hours. After the reaction time is reached, the composite membrane can be taken out, the ethanol is used for showering the composite membrane, and redundant reactive ions are washed away, so that the reaction is stopped.
The graphene oxide is characterized in that a large number of oxygen-containing groups including hydroxyl and epoxy groups are introduced on a flaky basal plane, and carboxyl and carbonyl groups are distributed at the edge part of a graphene oxide sheet layer. Through coordination ion strengthening reaction, divalent metal ions (such as calcium ions, magnesium ions and aluminum ions) can be utilized to bond the edges of two graphene oxide sheets, so that the effect of chemical crosslinking strengthening is achieved. Meanwhile, the chemical crosslinking strengthening effect can be achieved for hydroxyl groups of the graphene oxide flaky base surface and hydroxyl groups of amphiphilic substances such as the adhesive on the surface of the support layer 2, so that the volume crosslinking of the functional layer 1 is realized, and the firmness of the functional layer is improved. As shown in fig. 2, the "wrinkles" indicate that the graphene oxide has been successfully attached to the surface of the support layer 2, forming a stable and robust functional layer 1.
