▎ 摘　　要

A non-laminated graphene oxide membrane crosslinked by polyethyleneimine was prepared via a one-step sol-gel process. In the as-prepared membrane, the GO nanosheets remain disordered as in the sol state to form a randomly arranged GO self-assembled structure, which results in a much higher flux compared with the general laminated GO membrane prepared via vacuum filtration or spin coating because of the lower flow resistance. Furthermore, this random self-assembly of GO nanosheets gives rise to a hierarchical micro/nanoscale rough structure on the membrane surface. Along with the crosslinking reaction, PEI was grafted onto the GO nanosheets to make them hydrophilic. Combining the hydrophilic surface chemistry with the micro/nanoscale hierarchical surface structure, the non-laminated GO membrane exhibited the desired superhydrophilic and underwater superoleophobic properties. We have tested the membrane to separate a series of surfactant-free and surfactant-stabilized oil-in-water emulsions. A high separation efficiency (>99%) and flux were achieved using only gravity without any extra power, much larger than commercial filtration membranes with similar permeation properties. Moreover, the membrane shows an outstanding antifouling performance for oil droplets and can be recycled easily for long-term use.
