  • Publication number: 20240123412
    Abstract: The present disclosure relates to a polyether block polyamide/polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) composite membrane for gas separation, and a preparation method and use thereof, and belongs to the technical field of membrane separation. In the present disclosure, an amphoteric copolymer PDMS-polyethylene oxide (PEO) (PDMS-b-PEO) is introduced into an intermediate layer to adjust the interfacial binding performance, thereby promoting preparation of an ultra-thin polyether block polyamide composite membrane. Studies have shown that the surface enrichment of PEO segments not only inhibits a dense SiOx layer formed due to a plasma treatment of a PDMS intermediate layer, but also provides additional hydrophilic sites and interfacial compatibility for the subsequent selective layer. The use of PDMS-b-PEO in an intermediate layer allows the successful preparation of a selective layer with a thickness of about 50 nm.

  • Patent number: 11951446
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an acryloyloxy-terminated polydimethylsiloxane (AC-PDMS)-based thin-film composite (TFC) membrane, and a preparation method and use thereof. In the preparation method, a simple ultraviolet (UV)-induced monomer polymerization strategy based on high UV reactivity among acryloyloxy groups is adopted to prepare the AC-PDMS-based TFC membrane. The high UV reactivity among AC-PDMS monomers can induce the rapid curing of a casting solution to enable the formation of an ultra-thin selective layer and the inhibition of pore penetration for a substrate. By optimizing a UV wavelength, an irradiation time, and a polymer concentration, the prepared AC-PDMS-based TFC membrane has a CO2 penetration rate of 9,635 GPU and a CO2/N2 selectivity of 11.5. The UV-induced monomer polymerization strategy based on material properties provides a novel efficient strategy for preparing an ultra-thin PDMS-based membrane, which can be used for molecular separation.

  • Patent number: 11878267
    Abstract: M(SiF6)(pyz)3 (M=Cu, Zn, Co, or Ni) has a pore size between a size of H2 and a size of CO2, and thus exhibits prominent screening performance for H2/CO2. A strong interaction between Cu(SiF6)(bpy)2 and a CO2 molecule can hinder the transport of the CO2 molecule. The above two MOFs both can achieve the H2/CO2 separation. By preparing a dense MSiF6/polymer layer, MSiF6 is uniformly dispersed in the polymer and is fixed, and subsequently, MSiF6 is converted into M(SiF6)(pyz)3 or Cu(SiF6)(bpy)2 by interacting with an organic ligand. Through vapor-induced in-situ conversion, MOF particles can be well dispersed without interface defects between the MOF particles and the polymer. Even at a doping amount of 80%, the mechanical flexibility and stability of the MMM can still be retained.
