Soluble polyamic acid salt (PAAS) precursors comprised of tertiary and quaternary amines, ammonium cations, sulfonium cations, or phosphonium cations, are prepared and fabricated into membranes that are subsequently imidized and converted into rigid-rod polyimide articles, such as membranes with desirable gas separation properties. A method of enhancing solubility of PAAS polymers in alcohols is also disclosed.
摘要:
A preferred gas separation membrane made from a blend of a copolymer of 2,2-bis(trifluoromethyl)-4,5-difluoro-1,3-dioxole (BDD) and tetrafluoroethylene (TFE) with a 2,2,4-trifluoro-5-trifluoromethoxy-1,3-dioxide based polymer is disclosed, the membrane exhibiting an advantageous combination of gas separation and permeation properties for a number of gas separation applications. In particular, the membrane formed from the blend of these polymers exhibits unexpectedly high gas separation factors for separation of volatile organic hydrocarbon vapors (VOC) from air, compared to the component polymers that form the blends. Fabrication of composite membranes formed from perfluoropolymer blends is further disclosed.

摘要:
Composite porous hydrophobic membranes are prepared by forming a perfluorohydrocarbon layer on the surface of a preformed porous polymeric substrate. The substrate can be formed from poly(aryl ether ketone) and a perfluorohydrocarbon layer can be chemically grafted to the surface of the substrate. The membranes can be utilized for a broad range of fluid separations, such as microfiltration, nanofiltration, ultrafiltration as membrane contactors for membrane distillation and for degassing and dewatering of fluids. The membranes can further contain a dense ultra-thin perfluorohydrocarbon layer superimposed on the porous poly(aryl ether ketone) substrate and can be utilized as membrane contactors or as gas separation membranes for natural gas treatment and gas dehydration.
