Abstract

Phosphazene-based polymers were synthesized by using different pendant groups such as trifluoroethoxy (TFE), phenoxy (PHO) and octafluoropentoxy (OFP). High performance methoxyethoxyethoxy/cyclohexoxy (MEE/CH) based polyphosphazene was developed for the first time in literature using a mixed-substitution method. The structural, chemical, and thermal properties of these polymers were analyzed using several techniques such as Gel Permeation Chromatography (GPC), Thermal Gravimetric Analysis (TGA), Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), and Nuclear Magnetic Resonance (NMR). Significant differences in gas transport properties of gases have been observed between these pendant groups because of their differences in glass transition temperature and physical interaction with CO ₂. For the first time, we report on the high performance of TFE polyphophazene based mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) using a SIFSIX-Cu-2i (SIFSIX) metal organic framework (MOF) as the filler particles. These MMMs showed a significant improvement in both CO ₂ permeability and CO ₂/N ₂ selectivity compared to pure TFE polyphosphazene membranes. As a result, the excellent gas transport properties of these membranes make them very promising material for carbon capture applications.

On the direct synthesis of Cu(BDC) MOF nanosheets and their performance in mixed matrix membranes

Journal Article Shete, Meera ; Kumar, Prashant ; Bachman, Jonathan E. ; ... - Journal of Membrane Science

High aspect-ratio nanosheets of metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) hold promise for use as selective flakes in gas separation membranes. However, simple and scalable methods for the synthesis of MOF nanosheets have thus far remained elusive. Here, we describe the direct synthesis of Cu(BDC) (BDC ^2-= 1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) nanosheets with an average lateral size of 2.5 mu m and a thickness of 25 nm from a well-mixed solution. Characterization of the nanosheets by powder and thin film X-ray diffraction, electron microscopy, and electron diffraction reveals pronounced structural disorder that may affect their pore structure.

Diamine-Appended Mg ₂ (dobpdc) Nanorods as Phase-Change Fillers in Mixed-Matrix Membranes for Efficient CO ₂/N ₂ Separations

Journal Article Maserati, Lorenzo ; Meckler, Stephen M. ; Bachman, Jonathan E. ; ... - Nano Letters

Despite the availability of chemistries to tailor the pore architectures of microporous polymer membranes for chemical separations, trade-offs in permeability and selectivity with functional group manipulations nevertheless persist, which ultimately places an upper bound on membrane performance. We introduce a new design strategy to uncouple these attributes of the membrane. Key to our success is the incorporation of phase-change metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) into the polymer matrix, which can be used to increase the solubility of a specific gas in the membrane, and thereby its permeability. We further show that it is necessary to scale the size of the phase-change MOFmore »« less

Increasing M ₂(dobdc) Loading in Selective Mixed-Matrix Membranes: A Rubber Toughening Approach

Journal Article Smith, Zachary P. ; Bachman, Jonathan E. ; Li, Tao ; ... - Chemistry of Materials

Mixed-matrix membranes (MMMs) were formed by incorporating M ₂(dobdc) (M = Mg, Ni; dobdc ^4– = 2,5-dioxido-1,4-benzenedicarboxylate) metal–organic framework (MOF) nanoparticles in a series of poly(ether-imide) copolymers. Addition of the MOF nanoparticles improved the permeability of H ₂, N ₂, CH ₄, and CO ₂ relative to the pure copolymer by increasing gas solubility and, in most cases, diffusivity. More limited improvements in diffusivity were observed for the more strongly adsorbing gases. Because of such transport considerations, improvements in permeability and selectivity were most pronounced for H ₂/CH ₄ and H ₂/N ₂ separations. Incorporation of a greater ether contentmore »« less
