▎ 摘  要

Inspired by capillary-driven pump existing in nature, a capillary-like hydrophobic GO/GONR-APTES composite aerogel (MGGNA) was creatively fabricated by crosslinking one-dimensional functional GONRs with three-dimensional graphene aerogel. The prepared MGGNA presented a very low density in the range of 2.32-4.11 mg cm(-3), high porosity (97.5-98.6%) and high surface area (45.1 m(2) g(-1)) as well as high compression and recoverability properties, recovering 96.6% when compressed to 90% strain in a dry environment. The adsorption of organic pollutants was carried by the capillary force through the capillary-like channels inside the MGGNA, and the super-absorption capacity for organic solvents was up to 447 g g(-1). The MGGNA exhibited excellent performance stability over repeated use in combustion and mechanical squeezing cycles. Meanwhile, the dynamic test illustrated the continuous and highly efficient in-situ oil/water separation. Such outstanding properties make the resulting MGGNA present the prospect of practical application in organic pollution cleanup.
