Nano SiO2/Cellulose Composite Films Prepared via Ionic Liquids

Article Preview

Abstract:

nanoSiO2/cellulose composite films were prepared via ionic liquids 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate (EMIMAc) solution containing cotton pulp cellulose. The as-prepared composite films were characterized by means of scanning electron microscope (SEM) and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). It was indicated that the surface structure of obtained films was dense and compact, which was composed of nanoSiO2 particles. The modified nanoSiO2 composite film showed a good thermal stability with decomposition temperature up to 692°C when the weight residue of the film was 50%. The tensile strength and elongation at break increased by 50% and 35% than that of original cellulose film without SiO2. The film containing 0.5% SiO2 showed a water flux of 249.8L.m2.h-1 and the retention of BSA by 97%.
