Abstract
Inspired by the natural surface adaptations of springtails (Collembola), we developed a novel lignin-coated nanoparticle system with a petaloid porous structure that mimics their air-retention and water-repelling capabilities. The biomimetic materials exhibit remarkable superhydrophobicity (CAwater ≈ 160°) and superoleophilicity (CAoil ≈ 0°), crucial for enhancing selective oil adsorption. The unique structure traps air, ensuring excellent buoyancy and stability even in submerged conditions, while offering resistance to aggressive solvents. Additionally, the nanoparticles possess magnetic responsiveness, enabling precise manipulation in oil-water separation processes. This functionality is critical for a variety of industrial and environmental applications. In performance tests, the material achieved an oil-water separation efficiency of 97 %, with a permeation flux of 850 Lm−2 h−1. Even after multiple cycles, it maintained high separation efficiency and robustness, enduring chemically harsh environments. Our approach presents a highly durable and efficient solution to complex oil-water separation challenges, advancing the field of smart material applications.
期刊介绍:
The aim of this international journal is to analyse and publicise the progress and current state of knowledge in the field of organic coatings and related materials. The Editors and the Editorial Board members will solicit both review and research papers from academic and industrial scientists who are actively engaged in research and development or, in the case of review papers, have extensive experience in the subject to be reviewed. Unsolicited manuscripts will be accepted if they meet the journal''s requirements. The journal publishes papers dealing with such subjects as:
• Chemical, physical and technological properties of organic coatings and related materials
• Problems and methods of preparation, manufacture and application of these materials
• Performance, testing and analysis.
