Abstract
Provided is a high permeance nanofiltration membrane with nanoring-like structure and preparation method thereof. The membrane includes a base film and a polyamide layer having nanoring-like structure morphology on its surface. The method includes: (1) formulating a piperazine nanoemulsion containing a surfactant, vegetable oil, piperazine and water; and (2) infiltrating a base film with the piperazine nanoemulsion, and removing excess droplets from the surface of the base film to obtain a treated base film; covering the surface of the treated base film with a solution of trimesoyl chloride in n-hexane to perform interfacial polymerization; and drying the resulting membrane. Introduction of nano-oil droplets into aqueous phase as templates to construct nanoring-like structure morphology on the surface of the polyamide layer significantly increases the specific surface area and free volume of the polyamide layer without losing the salt rejection rate of the membrane, thereby greatly improving its water permeance.
