Controlling Fractional Free Volume, Transport, and Co-Transport of Alcohols and Carboxylate Salts in PEGDA Membranes

Abstract: Understanding multi-component transport through polymer membranes is critical for separation applications such as water purification, energy devices, etc. Specifically for CO2 reduction cells, where the CO2 reduction products (alcohols and carboxylate salts), crossover of these species is undesirable and improving the design of ion exchange membranes to prevent this behavior is needed. Previously, it was observed that acetate transport increased in copermeation with alcohols for cation exchange membranes consi… Show more

“…Polymers are proven to be the most common membrane constituents employed for gas separation today. In addition to treating natural gas, recovering hydrogen, and recovering vapor, polymer-based membrane separation systems have already been commercialized [ 6 , 7 ]. Swelling and polymer fractional free volume (FFV), which is an empirical value and dimensionless quantity which is the reason for the characterization of free volume in the polymers, on the other hand, significantly reduce the polymer membrane’s performance in separation and purification for a technique involving huge quantities of condensable gases in the feed gas or bulky gaseous molecules passing through the membrane [ 8 ].…”
