“…Crude oil is mainly composed of alkanes, so it is hard to be degraded under natural conditions. [31] The oil spill in the ocean can spread rapidly and form an oil film on the ocean surface, which is equivalent to covering the ocean surface with a layer of airtight "magic blanket," blocking the sunlight, reducing dissolved oxygen in the water, and finally inhibiting the growth of aquatic organisms or causing death. The discharge of industrial oily wastewater into rivers and lakes may also induce severe hazards to the ecosystem and human health.…”

The water pollution problem caused by large-scale industrial activity is becoming increasingly serious, which not only poses a major threat to the ecosystem and human health but also seriously impedes the green and sustainable development of modern society. It is urgent to efficiently purify stubborn wastewater containing oils and other pollutants to eliminate their harm to human and environment. Therefore, it is desirable to develop multifunctional materials that can simultaneously remove oil and various pollutants or microorganisms by filtration or absorption methods to meet the practical demand for highly effective purification of wastewater with complex components. This paper summarizes the latest research progress on the "oil

“…Frequent oil spills cause serious global water pollution ( Liu et al, 2017 ; Zhu et al, 2020c ; Huettel, 2022 ), which poses an urgent need for efficient solutions to oil–water separation. The traditional methods for oil–water separation include gravity separation ( Saththasivam et al, 2016 ), filtration, centrifugation ( Liu et al, 2018 ), flotation ( Rocha e Silva et al, 2018 ) and electrochemical methods ( Kwon et al, 2010 ).…”

In recent years, biology-inspired superhydrophobic technology has attracted extensive attention and has been widely used in self-cleaning, anti-icing, oil–water separation, and other fields. However, the poor durability restricts its application in practice; thus, it is urgent to systematically summarize it so that scientists can guide the future development of this field. Here, in this review, we first elucidated five kinds of typical superhydrophobic models, namely, Young’s equation, Wenzel, Cassie–Baxter, Wenzel–Cassie, “Lotus,” and “Gecko” models. Then, we summarized the improvement in mechanical stability and chemical stability of superhydrophobic surface. Later, the durability test methods such as mechanical test methods and chemical test methods are discussed. Afterwards, we displayed the applications of multifunctional mechanical–chemical superhydrophobic materials, namely, anti-fogging, self-cleaning, oil–water separation, antibacterial, membrane distillation, battery, and anti-icing. Finally, the outlook and challenge of mechanical–chemical superhydrophobic materials are highlighted.

The pursuit of superhydrophilic materials with hierarchical structures has garnered significant attention across diverse application domains. In this study, we have successfully crafted Ni-Mn LDHs@CuC2O4 nanosheet arrays on a copper mesh (CM) through a synergistic process involving chemical oxidation and hydrothermal deposition. Initially, CuC2O4 nanosheets were synthesized on the copper mesh, closely followed by the growth of Ni-Mn LDHs nanosheets, culminating in the establishment of a multi-tiered surface architecture with exceptional superhydrophilicity and remarkable underwater superoleophobicity. The resultant Ni-Mn LDHs@CuC2O4 CM membrane showcased an unparalleled amalgamation of traits, including superhydrophilicity, underwater superoleophobicity, and the ability to harness photocatalytic forces for self-cleaning actions, making it an advanced oil-water separation membrane. The membrane’s performance was impressive, manifesting in a remarkable water flux range (70 kL·m−2·h−1) and an efficient oil separation capability for both oil/water mixture and surfactant-stabilized emulsions (below 60 ppm). Moreover, the innate superhydrophilic characteristics of the membrane rendered it a prime candidate for deployment as a supercapacitor cathode material. Evidenced by a capacitance of 5080 mF·cm−2 at a current density of 6 mA cm−2 in a 6 M KOH electrolyte, the membrane’s potential extended beyond oil-water separation. This work not only introduces a cutting-edge oil-water separation membrane and supercapacitor electrode but also offers a promising blueprint for the deliberate engineering of hierarchical structure arrays to cater to a spectrum of related applications.
