Title: para ‐Xylene Ultra‐selective Zeolite MFI Membranes Fabricated from Nanosheet Monolayers at the Air–Water Interface

Abstract

Abstract The control of membrane morphology and microstructure is crucial to improve the separation performance of molecular‐sieve membranes. This can be enabled by making thin, dense, and uniform seed‐crystal coatings, which are then intergrown into continuous membranes. Herein, we show a novel and simple floating particle coating method can give closely packed monolayers of zeolite nanosheets on nonporous or porous supports. The zeolite nanosheet monolayer is formed at the air–water interface in a conical Teflon trough. As the water in the trough is drained, the monolayer is deposited on a support placed below. Membranes prepared by gel‐free secondary growth of the nanosheets deposited by this method show unprecedented ultra‐selective performance for separation of para‐ from ortho‐xylene (separation factor >10 000).

Mathematical modeling and parameter estimation of MFI membranes for para/ortho‐xylene separation

Abstract A mathematical model of a membrane with a thin, oriented, and selective MFI layer, which also includes contributions from defects, pore blockages, support layer, and external mass transfer, was formulated based on the Maxwell‐Stefan equations. It was validated using reported (Kim et al., Angew Chemie Int Ed, 2018, 57:480–485; Jeon et al., Nature, 2017, 543:690–694) para/ortho‐xylene separation data from five MFI membranes. The diffusivities of the xylenes were considered to be the same for all membranes, while the thickness and the density of defects and pore blockage were treated as unique properties of each membrane, and their contributions weremore »« less

Ultra-selective high-flux membranes from directly synthesized zeolite nanosheets

Journal Article Jeon, Mi Young ; Kim, Donghun ; Kumar, Prashant ; ... - Nature (London)

A zeolite with structure type MFI is an aluminosilicate or silicate material that has a three-dimensionally connected pore network, which enables molecular recognition in the size range 0.5-0.6 nm. These micropore dimensions are relevant for many valuable chemical intermediates, and therefore MFI-type zeolites are widely used in the chemical industry as selective catalysts or adsorbents. As with all zeolites, strategies to tailor them for specific applications include controlling their crystal size and shape. Nanometre-thick MFI crystals (nanosheets) have been introduced in pillared and self-pillared (intergrown) architectures, offering improved mass-transfer characteristics for certain adsorption and catalysis applications. Moreover, single (non-intergrown andmore »« less

Twin-free, directly synthesized MFI nanosheets with improved thickness uniformity and their use in membrane fabrication

Journal Article Kim, Donghun ; Ghosh, Supriya ; Akter, Nusnin ; ... - Science Advances

Zeolite nanosheets can be used for the fabrication of low-defect-density, thin, and oriented zeolite separation membranes. However, methods for manipulating their morphology are limited, hindering progress toward improved performance. We report the direct synthesis (i.e., without using exfoliation, etching, or other top-down processing) of thin, flat MFI nanosheets and demonstrate their use as high-performance membranes for xylene isomer separations. Our MFI nanosheets were synthesized using nanosheet fragments as seeds instead of the previously used MFI nanoparticles. The obtained MFI nanosheets exhibit improved thickness uniformity and are free of rotational and MEL intergrowths as shown by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) imaging.more »« less

Open‐Pore Two‐Dimensional MFI Zeolite Nanosheets for the Fabrication of Hydrocarbon‐Isomer‐Selective Membranes on Porous Polymer Supports

Journal Article Zhang, Han ; Xiao, Qiang ; Guo, Xianghai ; ... - Angewandte Chemie

Abstract Two‐dimensional zeolite nanosheets that do not contain any organic structure‐directing agents were prepared from a multilamellar MFI (ML‐MFI) zeolite. ML‐MFI was first exfoliated by melt compounding and then detemplated by treatment with a mixture of H ₂ SO ₄ and H ₂ O ₂ (piranha solution). The obtained OSDA‐free MFI nanosheets disperse well in water and can be used for coating applications. Deposits made on porous polybenzimidazole (PBI) supports by simple filtration of these suspensions exhibit an n ‐butane/isobutane selectivity of 5.4, with an n ‐butane permeance of 3.5×10 ⁻⁷ mol m ⁻² s ⁻¹ Pa ⁻¹ (ca. 1000 GPU).
