Fully Interconnected Porous Structure for Realization of Fast Oil-Absorption Resin

Article Preview

Abstract:

A fast oil-absorption resin with high pore level was developed by concentrated inverse emulsion polymerization. The oil absorption rate test displayed that only 30 min was needed for the resin to reach absorption saturation. The property was elucidated by the fully interconnected porous structure of the resins. Besides, resins exhibited high oil retention percentage in terms of fast centrifuge speed test and high reusability in terms of the repetitive absorption/desorption test. The effect of different polymerization parameters, such as the amount of initiator, cross-linker and emulsifier, on the oil absorbency was investigated in detail. The experimental results showed that the absorptive capacity of the resin was 8.5 g/g for toluene and 15.8 g/g for chloroform under the optimized conditions. All these features indicate wide practice applications.
