Résumé

Ultrafast oil/water separation based on tunable superwettability switch remains a big challenge. Here, inspired by the ultrafast water transport mechanism in sarracenia, we develop a micro/nanostructured porous membrane with conducting polymer nanotip arrays through the surface-initiated polymerizations. By modulating the height (ranging from 49-529 nm) and redox states of nanotips, a smart reversible superwettability switch is facile to obtain with contact angles of water/oil arranging from 161° to about 0°. Besides, liquid transport speed was accelerated more than 1.5 times by increasing the nanotip length. The water flux could reach up to 50326 L m
