Effect of Precipitation Temperature on the Properties of Cellulose Ultrafiltration Membranes Prepared via Immersion Precipitation with Ionic Liquid as Solvent.

ABSTRACT: Supported cellulose ultrafiltration membranes are cast from a cellulose-ionic liquid solution by the immersion precipitation technique. The effects of coagulation bath temperature and polymer concentration in the casting solution on the membrane morphology, wettability, pure water flux, molecular weight cut-off, and fouling resistance are studied. Scanning electron microscopy, contact angle measurements, atomic force microscopy, and filtration experiments are carried out in order to characterise the obtained ultrafiltration cellulose membranes. The results show the effect of coagulation bath temperature and polymer concentration on the surface morphology and properties of cellulose ultrafiltration membranes. Optimisation of the two parameters leads to the creation of dense membranes with good pure water fluxes and proven fouling resistance towards humic acid water solutions.

Project description:Ionic liquids (ILs) hold great potential as solvents to dissolve, recycle, and regenerate cellulosic fabrics, but the dissolved cellulose material system requires greater study in conditions relevant to fiber spinning processes, especially characterization of nonlinear shear and extensional flows. To address this gap, we aimed to disentangle the effects of the temperature, cellulose concentration, and degree of polymerization (DOP) on the shear and extensional flows of cellulose dissolved in an IL. We have studied the behavior of cellulose from two sources, fabric and filter paper, dissolved in 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate ([C2C1Im][OAc]) over a range of temperatures (25 to 80 °C) and concentrations (up to 4%) that cover both semidilute and entangled regimes. The linear viscoelastic (LVE) response was measured using small-amplitude oscillatory shear techniques, and the results were unified by reducing the temperature, concentration, and DOP onto a single master curve using time superposition techniques. The shear rheological data were further fitted to a fractional Maxwell liquid (FML) model and were found to satisfy the Cox-Merz rule within the measurement range. Meanwhile, the material response in the non-LVE (NLVE) regime at large strains and strain rates has special relevance for spinning processes. We quantified the NLVE behavior using steady shear flow tests alongside uniaxial extension using a customized capillary breakup extensional rheometer. The results for both shear and extensional NLVE responses were described by the Rolie-Poly model to account for flow-dependent relaxation times and nonmonotonic viscosity evolution with strain rates in an extensional flow, which primarily arise from complex polymer interactions at high concentrations. The physically interpretable model fitting parameters were further compared to describe differences in material response to different flow types at varying temperatures, concentrations, and DOP. Finally, the fitting parameters from the FML and Rolie-Poly models were connected under the same superposition framework to provide a comprehensive description within the wide measured parameter window for the flow and handling of cellulose in [C2C1Im][OAc] in both linear and nonlinear regimes.
