Description
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the field of materials, and relates to an ion track porous membrane, and a preparation method and application thereof.
Background
Nanoporous membranes are of interest due to their great potential in scientific research and industrial applications including ion separation and water desalination. The polymer membrane has the advantages of firmness, flexibility, easiness in large-scale production and the like, so that the polymer membrane is one of ideal materials for preparing the nano-pore, and the polymer membrane based on the heavy ion tracks is an important technical means for preparing the nano-porous membrane and has a plurality of potential applications. At present, the method for preparing the nanopore by using the heavy ion tracking membrane is only a chemical method, including a chemical etching method and an ultraviolet photolysis method. The precondition for the pore formation by both chemical methods is that the polymer is irradiated with ions and latent ion tracks are formed in the polymer. Wherein, the chemical etching method is to etch the latent tracks by using chemical solution to generate nanopores; the ultraviolet photolysis method is to irradiate the polymer film by using ultraviolet light and make organic molecules in an ion latent track area in the polymer film undergo photodegradation, and the degraded organic molecules are released in the form of gas molecules, so that a nanometer pore channel is formed. However, the diameter of the nanopores obtained by the track chemical etching method is usually large, generally 5 nm or more, so that it is difficult to effectively realize ion and molecule separation, and finally the application of the ion track membrane in the separation field is limited. In addition, chemical etching requires the use of strong acids, bases, or strong oxidizing agents, which are likely to cause environmental pollution. For the ultraviolet photolysis method, a nano-sized channel can be prepared by the method, the separation of alkali metal ions and alkaline earth metal ions can be realized, but the ultraviolet irradiation treatment usually needs more than several hours, the efficiency of preparing the pore channel is low, a special ultraviolet irradiation device is needed, the service life of an ultraviolet lamp is limited, and electric energy is consumed. In addition, harmful gases such as carbon monoxide are released to pollute the environment when undergoing a photolysis reaction under ultraviolet irradiation, and the skin, eyes and other parts of the human body are easily damaged when exposed to the ultraviolet environment for a long time.
Therefore, it is important to develop a physical preparation method of the ion-track porous membrane.

Example 4
A series of characterizations were carried out on the polyimide film PI ion track film obtained in example 1 with a thickness of 12 μm and a stretch ratio of 20%.
The PI membrane is clamped between two electrolytic cells, 0.1M different cation electrolytes are added on two sides of the PI membrane, ag/AgCl electrodes are inserted into the electrolytes on two sides, a Pian meter is used for applying +/-1V bias voltage on two ends of the electrodes to detect ion current, and whether the stretched heavy ion track membrane is conducted or not is verified. FIG. 1 is an I-V curve of the same concentration of different cations. As can be seen, the stretched polymer membrane was conductive, indicating that the physical preparation of the ion-track porous membrane was successful; different cations have different transmembrane currents, which shows that the obtained ion track porous membrane has transmission selectivity on different ions and can realize ion separation.
In order to measure the transmission rate of a PI membrane to different ions, a commercial H-shaped electrolytic cell is used, the PI membrane is clamped between two electrolytic cells, 0.1M of electrolyte with different cations and 15mL of deionized water are respectively added to the two sides of each electrolytic cell, then 2V voltage is applied to drive the cations to permeate to one side of the deionized water, samples are collected after a certain time, the concentration of the permeate is measured by ICP-OES, and then the transmission rate of the different cations can be obtained through calculation; the selection ratio among different ions can be calculated according to the transmission rates of different ions; FIG. 2 (a) shows the transport rates of different cations, and (b) is alkali metal ion (Li) + 、Na + 、K + 、Cs + ) Relative alkaline earth metal ion (Mg) 2+ ) Is selected to the transmission rate, wherein K + With Mg 2 + Has a selection ratio of more than 10 3 (ii) a As can be seen from the figure, (a) is the transmission rate of different ions and the unit ionThe transport rate of the ions is much greater than that of the divalent and trivalent metal ions, i.e.: k + >Li + >Na + >Cs + >>Ba 2+ >Ca 2+ >Mg 2+ >La 3+ 。
