Gas Permeation Properties of Multiwalled Carbon Nanotubes on Polyether Block Amide (Pebax-1657)/Polyethersulfone(PES) Blend Mixed Matrix Membrane for CO<sub>2</sub>/CH<sub>4</sub> Separation
Abstract:Mixed matrix membrane (MMM), a developing research area, is a membrane formed by incorporating fillers in the polymeric membrane to enhance gas separation performance. In this study, MMMs comprised of blend rubbery block copolymers of polyether block amide (Pebax-1657) with a glassy polyethersulfone (PES) polymer and multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) were synthesized by dry phase inversion method and explored further by gas permeability test. Pebax-1657/PES/MWCNTs membrane resulted in an increased permeab… Show more
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.
