Enhancement of CO2/CH4 separation performances of 6FDA-based copolyimides mixed matrix membranes embedded with UiO-66 nanoparticles
Original language description
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) incorporation into mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) is gaining more attention due to the combined advantages of high separation performance and easy processability. Nanoparticles (NPs) of CO2-philic MOF UiO-66 (Zr-BDC) were synthesized with high surface area and ca. 50 nm particle size (and also for comparison with 100 and 200 nm sizes). They were incorporated into three 6FDA-based copolyimides (namely 6FDA-BisP, 6FDA-ODA, and 6FDA-DAM), forming MMMs with loadings in the 4–23 wt% range. The NPs and MMMs were characterized accordingly by XRD, BET, SEM, TEM, FTIR, and TGA. CO2 and CH4 isotherms on the NPs were measured by a static volumetric method at the pressure up to 10 bar. Fractional free volume (FFV) was calculated using solid density, measured by pycnometer. Gas separation performance was evaluated using a feed composition of 50%:50% CO2:CH4 binary mixture at 35 °C and a pressure difference of 2 bar. The presence of UiO-66 NPs in the continuous 6FDA-BisP and 6FDA-ODA co-polyimides improved both CO2 permeability and CO2/CH4 selectivity by 50–180% and 70–220%, respectively. In the case of 6FDA-DAM MMMs, the CO2 permeability was significantly improved by 92%, while maintaining the CO2/CH4 selectivity. The best results in terms of CO2/CH4 selectivity were 41.9 for 6FDA-BisP (17 wt% filler loading, 108 Barrer of CO2), 57.0 for 6FDA-ODA (7 wt% filler loading, 43.3 Barrer of CO2) and 32.0 for 6FDA-DAM (8 wt% filler loading, 1728 Barrer of CO2).
