Superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic nanofibrous membrane with hierarchical structured skin for effective oil-in-water emulsion separation

Abstract

A novel superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic nanofibrous membrane with a hierarchical structured skin for the separation of oil-in-water emulsions was prepared via electrospinning and electrospraying methods, and was found to exhibit excellent separation efficiency, robust antifouling properties, and extremely high flux solely driven by gravity.
