Abstract
- Zinc oxide nanorods coated brass wire mesh (BWM) with superhydrophilicity and underwater superoleophobicity prepared by electrochemical deposition combined with hydrothermal reaction. The structure properties of the as-prepared mesh were characterized by scanning electron microscope (SEM), energy dispersive spectrometer (EDS), and X-ray diffractometer (XRD). The as-prepared mesh could be used to separate various oil/water mixtures. After separation, the residual oil in the filtrate was lower than 50 ppm, while the water flux was above 50 L m −2 min −1 . The oil contact angle (CA) underwater could be maintained at 150° above even the separation operation was performed ten times, indicating that the as-prepared brass wire mesh refers to a potential separation material in the practical application.
