The ion adsorption capacity has been added to the nylon 6 microfiltration (MF) membrane by grafting the fibers in its structure with carboxylated multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-COOH). Through a direct three-step functionalization reaction with hexamethylenediamine (HMDA) and MWCNT-COOH, the multi-walled carbon nanotubes grafted nylon (MWCNT@nylon) fibers are made up of original nylon 6 and intermediate amino-enriched (nylon-NH _2 ) membranes. Chemical structure analysis shows that HMDA and MWCNTs were grafted to the nylon 6 fiber side wall, without causing damage to either the nylon 6 backbone or the pore size of the original membrane. The SEM images confirm this and further confirm that the plexus of MWCNT-COOH has a pore size of approximately 50 nm, covering the nylon 6 fibers. The sidewall of nylon-NH _2 and MWCNT@nylon fibers contains hydrophilic groups (amino and carboxylic), allowing the as-prepared membranes to reduce the wetting angle from about 70.3° to about 108.1°. This special structure opens new possibilities for polyamide membranes as well as mass production by the proposed simple method. |
