Biodegradable polymers have received increased attention due to their potential application in the medicine and food industries; in particular, poly(lactic acid) (PLA) is a primary biopolymer because of its excellent biocompatibility and absorbability features. In this study, a porous PLA membrane was fabricated by phase separation using water microdroplets produced by an ultrasonic atomizer as a coagulation bath. The formation of S-type clusters was attributed to the slow exchange rate between solvent and coagulant, which provided time for the movement of polymer molecules. The effect of preparation conditions on the structure of S-type clusters, including polymer concentration in solution and ambient temperature was investigated. The PLA porous membrane prepared from water micro-droplets with different morphology compared with the sample fabricated from distilled water has potential application in fields of tissue engineering and artificial organ generation. © 2016 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

For the first time, two-dimensional (2D) gelatin nano-nets are fabricated by regulating the solution properties and several process parameters during electrospinning/electro-netting. The spider-web-like nano-nets that comprise interlinked one-dimensional (1D) ultrathin nanowires (10–35 nm) are stacked layer-by-layer and widely distributed in the three-dimensional (3D) porous membranes. The final morphology of the gelatin nano-nets, including nanowire diameter, area density and pore-width of the nano-nets, is highly dependent on the solution concentration, salt concentration, kinds of solvents, applied voltage, ambient temperature and relative humidity (RH). The occurrence of rapid phase separation on the splitting-film and the formation of hydrogen bond among gelatin molecules during electro-netting are proposed as the possible mechanisms for the formation of these spider-web-like nano-nets.

Adsorptive separation membranes are widely utilized for the removal of toxic dyeing pollutants from dyeing wastewater. However, developing novel adsorption membranes with large adsorption capacities and enhanced adsorption performance for dyes in actual wastewater poses a significant challenge. This study focuses on the fabrication of crown ether-containing copolymer porous membrane (CRPM) and investigation of the adsorption performance of dyes from aqueous solutions. The morphology structure and pore size distribution revealed that the membrane was endowed with rich micropores and hierarchical porous structures. Three typical cationic dyes (MB, RhB, CV) and an anionic dye (MO) were selected to evaluate the adsorption behavior. The results of adsorption isotherms and kinetics demonstrated that the adsorption data could be well-fitted using the Freundlich and pseudo-first-order kinetic models, the thermodynamic parameters revealed that the adsorption process of dyes on CRPM is a spontaneous endothermic reaction. The membrane exhibited excellent adsorption performance for cationic dyes, with RhB displaying a higher maximum adsorption capacity than previously reported porous membranes. Notably, dynamic adsorption-desorption filtration demonstrated a rapid removal efficiency, with RhB, MB, and CV achieving removal rates of 99.09%, 98.63%, and 99.14% respectively, after five cycles. The filtration volume of the CRPM membrane was 2.4-fold greater than that of a traditional PVDF membrane when applied to actual dyeing wastewater. DFT theoretical calculations were employed to elucidate the adsorption mechanism. These calculations confirmed the significant roles of electrostatic interactions, H-bonds and π–π interactions in facilitating the high-efficiency adsorption of cationic dyes. These findings highlight the potential of the crown ether-containing copolymer as a promising material for adsorption separation membranes in the treatment of dyeing wastewater.

The separation of stable oil/water emulsions is an urgent global issue. In this work, a porous and superhydrophobic polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) fibrous membrane was obtained by first centrifugal spinning PTFE/potato starch fibers and then heat treating the fibers to remove the starch. Results showed that spherical protrusions and irregular striped protrusions appeared on the surface of the prepared PTFE fibers, which significantly increased the roughness and hydrophobicity of the fibrous membrane. In addition, number density and shapes of these protrusions could be tuned by changing the extent of the heat treatment and the potato amylose content during the fiber preparation. The water contact angle on the structured PTFE membranes was as high as 160°, and the water sliding angle was as low as 3.4°. The results of oil/water separation experiments showed that the oil removal rate reached 99.5% based a permeability of 3670 L/m 2 /h, which suggested that the obtained PTFE fibrous membrane has great potential for use in oil/water emulsions separation.

A novel porous membrane of chemically modified polyvinyl butyral (mPVB), with improved thermal properties and chemical stability for lithium ion battery applications, is successfully synthesized by utilizing the chain extension reaction of the OH units from PVB. The porous mPVB membranes are obtained via the tape casting and phase inversion method. The corresponding gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) is achieved by immersing the as-prepared membranes in the liquid electrolyte. The electrochemical performances of the GPE show that the mPVB membranes have the features of good uniformity, high porosity ( ≈ 90%), great thermal stability, and high mechanical strength. Moreover, the GPE exhibits good chemical stability, a wide electrochemical window, as well as high ionic conductivity ( ≈ 1.21 × 10 −3 S cm −1 ). A test of a Li/GPE/LiFePO 4 battery cell shows a capacity of 147.7 mAh g −1 and excellent cycling stability, demonstrating the great potential of the mPVB-based GPE for lithium ion battery applications.
