Abstract

Pickering emulsion template has aroused attention in the fabrication of porous composite materials. In this work, six nanoparticles including cellulose nanofiber/nanocrystal (CNF/CNC), chitin nanofiber/nanocrystals (ChNF/ChNC) and waxy/normal corn nanocrystal (WSNC/CSNC) were comparatively studied for their performance in fabricating porous composites with PDMS via Pickering emulsion templates. Among all, CNF and ChNF exhibited best emulsion stabilizing ability, while ChNF and ChNC at optimized concentrations enabled the formation of high internal phase emulsions with long-term stability of over 300 days. WSNC and CSNC with poorest emulsion stabilizing ability failed to obtain porous composites while the other four particles all formed porous composites with PDMS. The ChNF and ChNC composites displayed highest hydrophobicity, followed by the CNC composite. As adsorbents for diesel oil, the ChNF composite showed the highest adsorption capacity and adsorption selectivity, which could be easily recycled by simple mechanical squeezing. At optimized PDMS fractions, the ChNF composite could achieve continuous oil-water separation under vacuum with a highest separation efficiency of 98.9 % at high flux of 8862 L/h·m². This study revealed the association between nanoparticles and their composite materials fabricated from Pickering emulsion template, hopefully broadening the application of natural polymers in water treatment and related fields.

期刊介绍： Carbohydrate Polymers stands as a prominent journal in the glycoscience field, dedicated to exploring and harnessing the potential of polysaccharides with applications spanning bioenergy, bioplastics, biomaterials, biorefining, chemistry, drug delivery, food, health, nanotechnology, packaging, paper, pharmaceuticals, medicine, oil recovery, textiles, tissue engineering, wood, and various aspects of glycoscience. The journal emphasizes the central role of well-characterized carbohydrate polymers, highlighting their significance as the primary focus rather than a peripheral topic. Each paper must prominently feature at least one named carbohydrate polymer, evident in both citation and title, with a commitment to innovative research that advances scientific knowledge.
