Nanofiber Membranes

Blend films based on polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide (70/30 wt%) undoped and doped with different concentration of graphene oxide were prepared by spiral vane electrospinning. Characteristic properties of the blend films were investigated by using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy. The sound absorption performance of the compositions (nanofiber membranes and needle punched non-woven fabric) was tested by an impedance tube. The sound absorption performance of non-woven fabric has greatly improved after combining with thin nanofiber membranes. With addition of graphene oxide, the fibers were intertwined in a loop and form a network, the areal density and surface roughness of the nanofiber membrane are reduced. Composites containing polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide nanofiber membranes and composites containing polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide/graphene oxide nanofiber membranes exhibited different sound absorption properties in different frequency bands. When the fiber coefficient of variation was small, the average sound absorption coefficient of the composite material was high. However, composites containing both polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide and polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide/graphene oxide nanofiber membranes had similar sound absorption properties, and the average sound absorption coefficient was greater than that of polyvinyl alcohol/polyethylene oxide composites.

AbstractInterfacial solar vapor generation has revived the solar-thermal-based desalination due to its high conversion efficiency of solar energy. However, most solar evaporators reported so far suffer from severe salt-clogging problems during solar desalination, leading to performance degradation and structural instability. Here, we demonstrate a free-standing salt-rejecting reduced graphene oxide (rGO) membrane serving as an efficient, stable, and antisalt-fouling solar evaporator. The evaporation rate of the membrane reaches up to 1.27 kg m−2 h−1 (solar–thermal conversion efficiency ∼79%) under one sun, out of 3.5 wt% brine. More strikingly, due to the tailored narrow interlayer spacing, the rGO membrane can effectively reject ions, preventing salt accumulation even for high salinity brine (∼8 wt% concentration). With enabled salt-antifouling capability, flexibility, as well as stability, our rGO membrane serves as a promising solar evaporator for high salinity brine treatment.
