Description

Composite quaternary hydrogel capable of realizing high solar evaporation rate and preparation method thereof
Technical Field
The invention belongs to the technical field of preparation of photo-thermal evaporation materials, and particularly relates to a composite quaternary hydrogel capable of realizing high solar evaporation rate and a preparation method thereof.
Background
Fresh water is an indispensable resource for the development of the human society at present. With the development of human society and the progress of science and technology, there have been various industrial methods for obtaining fresh water resources. Since the sea water resources on earth are abundant, research and development of desalination of sea water is very important, and there have been several efforts for practical applications, such as permeation and reverse osmosis methods based on separation methods, electric heating and direct heating methods based on evaporation, the latter being widely used in the middle east. In order to obtain fresh water of drinking grade quality, an evaporation-based method is necessary. The principle of obtaining the fresh water resource by evaporation is that the water absorbs energy under a certain air pressure and changes phase state, and most of substances dissolved in water, such as halogen substances, cannot change phase state with the water, so that impurities in the water are separated out, and the fresh water resource with high purity is obtained. However, the energy demand for evaporation is correspondingly high, and the evaporation method based on fossil fuels such as coal, petroleum and the like has high cost, and is only suitable for large-scale water-deficient areas with abundant energy and high economic level. For coastal or island areas with large population dispersion, underdeveloped economy and scarce fresh water, how to obtain fresh water at low cost is a problem to be solved.
Solar evaporation systems have received increasing attention in recent years due to the abundance and ready availability of solar energy resources, which greatly reduces energy costs. However, water has high phase-change enthalpy at normal temperature and pressure, and high-speed evaporation of water cannot be satisfied by directly utilizing energy input of sunlight.
The hydrogel is a three-dimensional space network structure formed by crosslinking hydrophilic polymer chains, and a multi-component dispersion system with a large amount of water filled in structural gaps. Based on the structural characteristics of the hydrogel, the hydrogel can be used as an evaporation carrier for efficient solar seawater evaporation through reasonable functional design. The functional design comprises the operations of forming a double-network structure, photo-thermal coating modification, hydrophilic modification and the like by combining with photo-thermal materials through physical and chemical actions, and the formed composite multi-element hydrogel material is used for efficiently absorbing solar energy and evaporating.
