| Zusammenfassung: | In this study, we proposed a method for fabricating Janus sheets using biological "microflowers" as a sacrificial template. The microflower-templated Janus sheets (MF-JNSs) were employed as a foam stabilizer in foam separation of the whey soybean protein (WSP). The MF-JNSs took inorganic hybrid microflowers (BSACu3 (PO4)2-MF) as template, followed by the sequential attachment of protamine and silica to the surface of the BSA@Cu3(PO4)2-MF. Subsequently, the template was removed using ethylenediaminetetraacetic acid after the silicon dioxide was modified by 3-(methacryloyloxy) propyl trimethoxysilane. Upon template dissolution, the modified silica layer, lacking support from the core, fractured to form the MF-JNSs. This method omitted the step of treating the hollow ball by external force and obtained Janus sheets in one step, indicating that it was simple and feasible. The morphology, structure, and composition of the MF-JNSs were analyzed by SEM, TEM, AFM, XRD, and FT-IR. The MF-JNSs were found to delay the breakage time of the Pickering emulsion, demonstrating their emulsion stabilizing capability. Importantly, they significantly enhanced the foam half-life and foam height of soybean whey wastewater (SWW). Moreover, the recovery percentage and enrichment ratio of WSP, separated from SWW by foam separation, were improved to 81 ± 0.28 and 1.20 ± 0.05%, respectively |
