Hydrophobic Ti₃C₂T_x/TEMPO Oxidized Cellulose Nanofibers Composite Aerogel for Efficient Oil-Water Separation.

ABSTRACT: To address the pollution issues of industrial oily wastewater and catering industry wastewater, a series of Ti₃C₂T_x/TEMPO oxidized cellulose nanofibers composite aerogels with varying Ti₃C₂T_x content were successfully prepared using liquid nitrogen non-directional and directional freezing methods, with Ti₃C₂T_x and TEMPO oxidized cellulose nanofibers (TOCNF) as the main raw materials. The prepared samples were then hydrophobically modified using methyltrichlorosilane (MTCS) via chemical vapor deposition (CVD). The results showed that the directional Ti₃C₂T_x/TOCNF composite aerogel had the most orderly SEM morphology. The hydrophobic Ti₃C₂T
