In this paper, five new room temperature ionic liquids were tested as supported ionic liquid membranes (SILMs) for CO₂/N₂ separation capability. This series of ionic liquids (ILs) contains bicyclic amidine cations of 1,8-diazabicyclo[5.4.0]undec-7-ene (DBU) or 1,5-diazabicyclo[4.3.0]non-5-ene (DBN) with small alkyl chain substituents. These ILs have been synthesized to examine the effects of cation structure on free volume. Relevant physical and chemical properties have been examined, including CO₂ solubility and viscosity. The relationship between fractional free volume and permeability of gases is explored, with an interesting note on solubility. Each cation was paired with two different anions: bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and tetracyanoborate, for further investigation of the cation-anion interaction on SILM permeability and selectivity. Finally, three of these new ILs have exceeded Robeson's upper bound for CO₂/N₂ gas separations.
