The second‐generation polysulfone gas‐separation membrane. I. The use of lewis acid: Base complexes as transient templates to increase free volume

Abstract: SynopsisThe second-generation polysulfone (PSU ) gas-separation membrane is seen as a trilayer that is considerably more permeable and at least as selective as the first-generation bilayer that it has replaced. In air separation, a fourfold increase in oxygen permeability has been obtained with no loss in oxygen/nitrogen selectivity. The enhanced performance is the result of a membrane skin that is not only thinner, but also exhibits increased free volume and a graded density. The key to the emergence of the t… Show more

“…When the propionic acid (PA)/N-methyl-2-pyrrolidone (NMP) molar ratio increased, the O 2 permeability did also whereas the O 2 /N 2 selectivity stayed rather constant. 7 However, in the case of He/N 2 , when increasing the PA/NMP molar ratio, the selectivity increased and the He permeability diminished. 5 Besides the solvent molecule size, these results are a clear indication that other factors may also affect the free volume and permeability of the membrane.…”

“…Under these circumstances, the humidity effects on membrane separation performance may be negligible. The molecular sizes and solubility parameters of solvents and internal and external coagulants play important roles on membrane morphology (Kesting et al, 1990;Kesting and Fritzsche, 1993). Large-size solvents may have difficulties to leach out during the precipitation.…”

“…Other mechanisms such as Marangoni effects (Levich and Krylov, 1969;Shojaie et al, 1994), osmosis pressure (McKelvey and Koros, 1996), and moisture effects (Menut et al, 2002;Tsai et al, 2005;Khare et al, 2005) have also been proposed. Ways to reduce macrovoids or modify the phase-inversion conditions to yield a spongelike structure have been studied; they may consist of (1) using high polymer concentration solutions (Kesting et al, 1990;Kesting and Fritzsche, 1993), (2) using high viscosity spinning solutions (Chung et al, 1994), (3) spinning at high shear rates (Ren et al, 2002), (4) the induction of delayed demixing (Kim et al, 2001) or gelation (Lin et al, 2002), (5) the addition of surfactants (Tsai et al, 2001), (6) the addition of high-viscosity components , or (7) the reduction of air gap distance and flow channel thickness in the spinneret (Widjojo and Chung, 2006).…”
