Multifunctional antifouling sustainable membranes integrating MIL-125(Ti) and carboxylated cellulose nanofibers for self-cleaning and dye degradation
A multifunctional antifouling sustainable membrane was developed by integrating MIL-125(Ti) and carboxylated cellulose nanofibers (CCNFs) into a PVDF matrix <i>via</i> non-solvent induced phase separation. The resulting membrane exhibited high water flux (up to 410 L m<sup>-2</sup> h<sup>-1</sup> bar<sup>-1</sup>), excellent dye rejection (>97% for MB, CV, MG), strong self-cleaning ability, and outstanding antifouling stability (FRR >94%). This work offers a green and efficient strategy for next-generation water treatment membranes combining physical separation and photocatalytic degradation.
