Facile approach in development of superhydrophobic-superoleophilic kaolin-based hollow fibre ceramic membrane
A silane coupling agent is an organosilicon compound with special structure possessing organic functional groups and hydrolysable groups. In this study, a superhydrophobic-superoleophilic nano-silica film on ceramic membrane was constructed by a modified Stöbertechnique by using tetraethoxy-silane (...

A silane coupling agent is an organosilicon compound with special structure possessing organic functional groups and hydrolysable groups. In this study, a superhydrophobic-superoleophilic nano-silica film on ceramic membrane was constructed by a modified Stöbertechnique by using tetraethoxy-silane (TEOS) and fluoroalkyl silane (FAS). The colloidal nano-silica based silane sol coating solution was synthesized via co-hydrolysis and co-condensation of TEOS and FAS. Particle size distribution of the colloidal nano-silica based silane sol was evaluated using particle size analyzer as depicted. The contents of the relative elements of the colloidal nano-silica based silane sol were examined using energy dispersive x-ray (EDX) spectra. Extent of superhydrophobicity-superoleophilicity was determined using the contact angle measurements. The surface wettability of superhydrophobicity-superoleophilicity was determined using the contact angle measurements. Also, the effects of grafting times and coating cycles on the wettability of the modified kaolin-based hollow fiber membrane were determined. The results revealed that the modified kaolin-based hollow fiber membrane exhibited oil contact of 0o and water contact angle of 160o and, demonstrating its considerable antiwetting applications like in oil-water filtration process.
