Schematic of organic hydrogel fabrication and wettability switch (IMAGE)
Caption
The Micro-nano structure organic hydrogel surface can separate oil-water mixture on demand. The surface maintains an ultra-high separating efficiency and flux of about 99.85% and 17750 L·m−2·h−1, and even after continuous cycles without cleaning, it could keep 99.1% and 16000 L·m−2·h−1 due to the excellent anti-fouling ability.
