Via solvothermal copolymerization of a monomeric ionic liquid and divinylbenzene in the presence of a tissue paper in autoclave, we fabricated a flexible porous polymer\/paper hybrid membrane. The surface areas of the hybrid membranes depend on the weight fraction of the copolymer impregnated inside the tissue paper. The as-prepared hybrid membrane shows controlled surface wettability in terms of ethanol wetting and ethanol removal by harsh drying condition. This unique property provides the hybrid membrane with switchable oil\/water separation function, thus of practical values for real life application. \u00a9 The Author(s) 2017.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1038\/s41598-017-03265-z\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">DOI:\u00a010.1038\/s41598-017-03265-z<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Scientific Reports Volume 7, Issue 1, 1 December 2017, Article number 3101,\u00a0ISSN: 20452322 Cao, C.-X., Yuan, J., Cheng, J.-P., Han, B.-H. &nbsp; Abstract The unusually broad physical and chemical property window of ionic liquids allows for a wide range of applications, which gives rise to the recent spring-up of ionic liquid-based functional materials.
