An amphoteric dissociation ion exchange separation medium, the surface of which is an amphoteric dissociation covalently-modified layer. When an environmental pH value is lower than the isoelectric point, pIm, of the covalently-modified layer, the type of net charges on the surface of the covalently-modified layer is positive and the separation medium has the properties of an anion exchanger; when the environmental pH value is higher than the pIm, the type of net charges on the covalently-modified layer surface is negative and the separation medium has the properties of a cation exchanger. The separation medium has the properties of an anion exchanger and a cation exchanger at both sides of the pIm, respectively. The pH of an eluent can be adjusted to allow the separation medium surface and the target substance to have the same type of net charges, so that the target substance can be released by electrostatic repulsion.

Nanostructured polyelectrolyte bilayers deposited by Layer-by-Layer deposition on nanoporous membranes can be selectively crosslinked to modify the polyelectrolyte charge density and control ionic selectivity independent of ionic conductivity. For example, the polyelectrolyte bilayer can comprise a cationic polymer layer, such as poly(ethyleneimine), and an anionic polymer layer, such as poly(acrylic acid). Increasing the number of bilayers increases the cation selectivity when the poly(ethyleneimine) layer is crosslinked with glutaraldehyde. Crosslinking the membranes also increases the chemical and mechanical strength of the polyelectrolyte films. This controllable and inexpensive method can be used to create ion-selective and mechanically robust membranes on porous supports for a wide range of applications.

A hydrogen purification device including a container, a first opening structure and a second opening structure is provided. The container has at least a filter material inside. The first opening structure is disposed in the container, wherein hydrogen-rich gas mixture flows into the container via the first opening structure so that purified hydrogen gas is generated by conducting a reaction between the hydrogen-rich gas mixture and the filter material. Besides, a second opening structure is disposed in the container, wherein the purified hydrogen gas flows away from the container via the second opening structure. A fuel processor having the hydrogen purification device is also provided.

The current invention provides compositions, which are useful as stationary phases for a variety of chromatographic applications, such as high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) and solid-phase extraction (SPE). The compositions include a porous solid support (e.g., silica gels, silica monoliths or synthetic organic resins) having an exterior surface and pore openings defined by “interior walls”. To the solid support are covalently bound organic ion-exchange ligands (e.g., silyl ligands), which incorporate at least one ion-exchange group (e.g., ionic or ionizable group). The compositions further include micro-particles (e.g., latex particles) incorporating ion-exchange groups having a charge that is opposite to the charge found on the support. The micro-particles are bound to the exterior surface of the support (e.g., via electrostatic forces). The micro-particles have a size that is sufficient to minimize the number of particles that can enter the pores of the support thereby reducing or essentially preventing binding of the micro-particles to the interior walls of the pores. While the pores are essentially too small for the micro-particles, they can still be accessed by the analytes present in a chromatographic sample. The physical separation of ion-exchange groups located within the pores and the surface of the micro-particles, respectively, prevents reactions (e.g., formation of salt-bridges) between the oppositely charged groups and provides compositions with both anion-exchange and cation-exchange capabilities within the same stationary phase. The ligands bound to the solid support can optionally include additional (e.g., reverse-phase) functionalities creating multi-modal (e.g., trimodal) stationary phases.

A new family of coherently grown composites of TUN and IMF zeotypes have been synthesized. These zeolites are represented by the empirical formula. NanMmk+TtAl1-xExSiyOz where “n” is the mole ratio of Na to (Al+E), M represents a metal or metals from zinc, Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 and or the lanthanide series of the periodic table, “m” is the mole ratio of M to (Al+E), “k” is the average charge of the metal or metals M, T is the organic structure directing agent or agents, and E is a framework element such as gallium. These zeolites are similar to TNU-9 and IM-5 but are characterized by unique compositions and synthesis procedures and have catalytic properties for carrying out various hydrocarbon conversion processes and separation properties for carrying out various separations.
