Abstract:A polyvinyl alcohol (PVA)/SiO2 organic-inorganic hybrid membrane was fabricated, using PVA as the basic material, SiO2 nanoparticles as the inorganic material, γ-(2,3)-glycidoxy propyl trimethoxysilane (GPTMS) and 3-aminopropyl triethoxysilane (APTEOS) as the second modified agents. The dehydration performance of PVA-SiO2/polyacrylonitrile (PAN) composite membrane to ethyl acetate (EA)/H2O, EA/ethanol (EtOH)/H2O and EA/EtOH/acetic acid (HAc)/H2O solutions was investigated. After modification of the second coup… Show more
