Research Progress on the Preparation of Cellulose and Cellulose Fiber Aerogel and Their Application in Oil-Water Separation
In recent years,researchers have prepared various adsorbent materials for oil spill treatment.Among them,aerogel,as the lightest synthetic solid on earth,has the advantages of ultra-low density,high porosity and high specific sur-face area,and has received a wide attention in oil-water separation treatment.As a cheap and abundant natural polymer,cellulose is a good raw material for preparation of aerogel materials.In this article we review preparation methods,drying methods and hydrophobic modification methods of cellulose aerogel,also analyse and summarize the application status of cellulose aerogel in oil-water separation field.
