Developing an effective and mechanically durable biomimetic membrane for the separation of highly emulsified aqueous oil is significant but challenging owing to its low water flux and serious membrane fouling. In this work, a biomimetic membrane with superhydrophobicity and superoleophilicity was rationally developed via co-electrospinning of polysulfonamide/polyacrylonitrile (PSA/PAN) emulsion solution, followed by decorating of α-Fe₂O₃ nanowire onto the membrane surface to create membrane roughness, and grafting of 1H, 1H, 2H, 2H-perfluorododecyltrichlorosilane (FTCS) to lower membrane surface free energy. Benefiting from the nanowire-wrapped rough membrane structure and the low surface free energy FTCS, the resultant membrane showed superhydrophobicity with a high water contact angle (WCA) of 156°, superoleophilicity with a low oil contact angle (OCA) of 0°, which can separate the highly emulsified aqueous oil with an ultrahigh permeation flux over 7000 L m^-2 h^-1 and high separation efficiency of about 99%. Significantly, the biomimetic membrane also displayed robust stability for long-term separation owing to its advantage of antifouling property, showing great potential applications in large-scale aqueous oil treatment.
