What is Fabrication of Polydimethylsiloxane Mixed Matrix Membranes for Recovery of Ethylene Glycol Butyl Ether from Water by Pervaporation about?
Due to its wide application as a solvent or cleaning agent in automotive paints and other coatings industries, the separation and recovery of ethylene glycol butyl ether (EB) from wastewater played a key role in reducing emissions in industries such as automotive coatings. To achieve the efficient separation of EB by pervaporation process, three different types of nanomaterials were first used as additives to construct the mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) for pervaporation using polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) as the polymer material. The addition of three nanomaterials could improve the affinity of the resulting MMMs toward EB and accelerate the diffusion process of EB in MMMs, thus eventually enhancing the separation performance of the resulting membranes. When three nanomaterials seriously agglomerated in polymeric materials, the improvement of the EB diffusion in MMMs decreased. Moreover, the diffusion of EB molecules in the MMMs containing nanomaterials was still lower than that of water molecules due to the insufficient capturing of EB, and the diffusion selectivity of the resulting MMMs for EB was less than 1. The surface modification for nanomaterials by grafting polyethylene glyc
