Abstract:
Porous organic polymers (POPs) as absorbing materials have attracted increasing attention. Here, we report a new approach to prepare these polymers for selective oil absorption from oil/water mixtures. Perfluoroalkylbis(diaryldiazomethane) was synthesized and used to modify the surface of an electrospun gelatin membrane by a carbene insertion reaction, not only to immobilize the porous network morphology by cross-linking but also to introduce perfluoroalkyl groups for oil/water separation. The membrane was characterized to show its surface and bulk properties, as well as its performance for absorption capacity, selectivity, and renewability. This approach offers a new horizon in the preparation of POPs for oil/water separation.
