Abstract:
The organic-inorganic hybrid titanium dioxide (TiO2) nanoparticles were synthesized by grafting poly (2-hydroxyethyl methacrylate) (PHEMA) to the surface via radical polymerization and used as additive to fabricate the active layer of flat-sheet thin film composite forward osmosis (TFC-FO) membranes by interfacial polymerization. The influence of TiO2-PHEMA loadings on properties and structure of active layer and membrane performance were investigated. The results showed that the addition of TiO2-PHEMA had significant influences on both hydrophilicity and surface roughness. When the content of nanoparticles increased to 0.1 wt%, the water contact angle decreased to 47.7°, while the surface roughness increased to 99.5 nm. The water flux increased from 6.8 L/(m2•h) and 12.2 L/( m2•h) to 23.6 L/( m2•h) and 39.2 L/( m2•h) tested under the AL-FS mode (Active layer against the feed solution) and AL-DS mode (Active layer against the draw solution), respectively. And all the composite membranes have a relative high rejection to NaCl (R>90%).
