Permselective properties for aqueous ethanol solutions through copolymer membranes from benzyl methacrylate and polyethylene glycol dimethacrylate
Abstract
Copolymer membranes prepared by bulk copolymerization of polyethylene glycol dimethacrylates of three different degrees of polymerization as macromonomer and benzyl methacrylate as comonomer were used for the separation of aqueous ethanol solutions in both pervaporation and evapomeation. The copolymer membranes preferentially permeated water from an aqueous ethanol solutions in both pervaporation and evapomeation. The copolymer membranes preferentially permeated water from an aqueous ethanol solution in evapomeation. In pervaporation, ethanol was predominantly permeated from an aqueous ethanol solution through the copolymer membranes containing a long polyethylene glycol (PEG) chain above about 20 wt% PEG content in a copolymer. This result was attributed to a remarkable swelling of the copolymer membrane containing a long PEG chain by the aqueous ethanol solution in pervaporation. In evapomeation, both the separation factors and the permeation rates through these membranes are not much affected by the ethanol concentration in the feed vapor. In pervaporation, they were significantly dependent on the ethanol concentration in the feed solution. The above results are discussed from the viewpoint of the physical structure of the membrane in evapomeation and pervaporation.
