Preparation and Application of Electrospinning Membranes of Thermoplastic Carboxymethyl Cellulose/PLA for Removal of Cu2+ from Aqueous Solutions

Article Preview

Abstract:

A composite membrane of thermoplastic carboxymethyl cellulose (TCMC) /PLA was prepared by electrospinning process, and crossliked by epichlorohydrin solution at different temperature. The cross-linking temperature was optimized by characterizing the morphology and tensile strength of the film. The optimal cross-linking temperature was 50°C. A composite membrane was used to remove Cu2+ from aqueous solutions, and the effects of initial concentration of Cu2+ and contact time on the removal efficiency of Cu2+ were investigated. The removal efficiency of Cu2+ was 13.78%, at the initial concentration of 40 mg·L-1 and contact time of 30s.
