Fine particles of titanium dioxide (TiO) are not effectively removed during the later stages of production and use, endangering water bodies, soil ecology and human health. In the present study, mixed-dimensional composite membranes based on conventional two-dimensional woven fabrics have been rapidly produced on a large scale using hot-press composite technology for the recovery of powder particles, to mitigate ecological pollution. The filtration performance of these composites against TiO was investigated by recording the effect of temperature and time on the formation of the composite filter material.

Electrospun polystyrene materials have been employed as oil absorbents, but they have visible drawbacks such as poor strength at low temperature and unreliable integrity because of brittleness and insufficient cohesive force among fibers. Butyl acrylate can polymerize into flexible chains, and its polymer can be used as elastomer and adhesive material. Thereby it is possible to obtain the material that has better performance in comparison with electrospun polystyrene material through the electrospinning of the copolymer of styrene and butyl acrylate.
