Research Abstract |
The development of the oil water separation gel seat reusable by the use of a hydrophilic gel and a lipophilic gel was tried. The hydrophilic gel used Poly (N-isopropylacryamide) (PNIPA) gel, and lipophilic gel used Octadecyl Acrylate (ODA) gel. Absorption and the exhaust characteristic of the solvent of both gels were examined. Shape has hardly changed though the PNIPA gel is repeatedly used for absorption and the exhaust of the solvent. On the other hand, ODA gel's absorbing oil enough became clear. From these results, a basic finding concerning the application development of the oil-water separator gel sheet was obtained.
