...Ying Zhai; Xinming Zhang; Xiaodong Yang; Shuwei Lv; Jinghe Zhao; Lei Bie; Feng Liu Frequent oil spillage at sea and waste oily water draining cause severe harm to the environment and economy. Although various extremely wettable materials are designed to achieve oil–water separation, there are still...

.... To evaluate the performance of the STNFMs in oil–water separation, the separation efficiency and flux were characterized. The separation efficiency for the oil–water mixture (η _{1) was calculated using the following formula: 43 The surface morphology of the fabricated STNFMs underwent scrutiny}...
