摘要:
A process for producing a zeolite membrane comprising a seed crystal forming step of placing, in a pressure-resistant vessel, a seeding sol containing silica, water and a structure-directing agent and a support in a state that the support is immersed in the seeding sol and heating the heat-resistant vessel to form a zeolite seed crystal on the surface of the support, and a membrane formation step of allowing the zeolite seed crystal to grow to form a zeolite membrane on the surface of the support. In the seed crystal forming step, the molar ratio of water/silica in the seeding sol is set 10 to 50 and the heating of the pressure-resistant vessel is conducted at 90 to 130° C. The crystal c-axis of the present zeolite membrane is oriented in a direction vertical to the surface of the support and its thickness is uniform.

An oriented zeolite membrane-provided structure comprising a support and a membrane-like, MFI type zeolite crystal (an oriented zeolite membrane) provided on the surface of the support, wherein, in the zeolite crystal, the proportion of zeolite crystals whose c-axes are oriented at an angle of 90°±33.76° relative to the surface of the support, is 90% or more of the whole zeolite crystals and the oriented zeolite membrane has a thickness of 1 to 30 μm. The present invention provides an oriented zeolite membrane-provided structure comprising a support and an oriented zeolite membrane provided thereon, wherein the c-axes of zeolite crystals of the membrane are oriented in a direction vertical to the surface of the support and the thickness of the membrane is small.

A carbon membrane laminated body includes: a porous substrate, a first porous carbon membrane as a carbon membrane underlayer disposed on a surface of the porous substrate, and a second porous carbon membrane as a carbon membrane separation layer disposed on a surface of the carbon membrane underlayer, having a smaller film thickness, and a smaller average pore diameter, compared with those of the carbon membrane underlayer. It is preferable to form the carbon membrane underlayer and the carbon membrane separation layer by carbonizing a carbon membrane underlayer precursor disposed on a surface of the porous substrate and the carbon membrane separation layer precursor disposed on a surface of the carbon membrane underlayer precursor at 400 to 1000° C. in a non-oxidation atmosphere. The carbon membrane laminated body is a separation membrane excellent in both separation performance and flux when it is used as a separation membrane of a mixture.
