The comparative analysis of gas transport properties and conformational parameters of membranes obtained from two polyimides and polysulfone was made. It was shown that the introduction of a sulfone group instead of a methylene group in the amine component of polyimide leads to an increase in glass transition temperature and of polymer membrane permeability coefficient and a reduction in selectivity. Also it was demonstrated that the solvent used during the preparation of polymer membranes had a significant influence on their gas transport characteristics.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
