Poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) microporous film was successfully synthesized and functionalized by poly acrylic acid (PAA) for immobilization of nanoscale zero-valent iron (NZVI). PAA was innovatively introduced onto PVDF film via in situ polymerization of acrylic acid (AA) and followed by ion exchange procedure. The as-prepared PAA/PVDF-NZVI hybrids (PPN) were characterized in terms of morphology (SEM) and surface functional groups (FTIR). FTIR spectra confirms the functionalization of PVDF film by coating of PAA within its micropores. And SEM images suggested that NZVI were well immobilized onto the surface of the support. Over the reaction course, the resultant PPN hybrids demonstrated high reactivity, excellent stability and reusability for Cr(VI) removal. Results showed that lower pH and initial concentration facilitated the removal of Cr(VI) by PPN. Compared with bare NZVI, PAA/PVDF film-immobilized NZVI resulted in a lower activation energy for Cr(VI) removal, indicating that Cr(VI) reduction process with PPN is a surfacecontrolled chemical reaction. Moreover, a two-parameter pseudo-first-order model was provided and well-described the reaction kinetics of Cr(VI) over PPN under various conditions.

A series of three-phase composite films with different filler contents were prepared by in-situ polymerization. The composite films comprise polyimide (PI), poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF), and titanium dioxide (TiO2). Compared with PI/TiO2 composite films, the PI/TiO2-PVDF composite films not only get a significant increase in dielectric constant, but also own better mechanical properties. Our results show that with the loading of 50wt% PVDF particles, the dielectric constant of PI/TiO2-PVDF composite films increased from 6.5 to 18.14 at 1 MHz and room temperature, while the tensile strength of PI/TiO2-PVDF composite films increased from 45 to 72 MPa. In addition, the films maintain a low loss tangent of about 0.02. PI/PVDF composite films were also prepared. It was found that dielectric constant of PI/PVDF composite was significantly lower than that of PI/TiO2-PVDF composite films when the loading of PVDF is 50wt%.
