Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Novel thermally rearranged polybenzoxazole (TR-PBO) -based silica hybrid membranes were prepared via thermal rearrangement and sol - gel processes, and their gas transport properties were investigated. Gas permeability of TR-PBO - silica hybrids increased with increasing silica content. The increased gas permeability was mainly attributed to increased gas diffusivity, suggesting the formation of free volume holes at polymer / silica interfacial region. The TR-PBO - silica hybrids possessed an outstanding CO2/CH4 selectivity, exceeding the upper bound trade-off line for CO2/CH4 separation. The notable CO2/CH4 selectivity was achieved by synergistic effects of (1) enlarged FFV and d-spacing by the thermal rearrangement towards PBO and (2) the additional formation of characteristic free volume holes with a size-selective CO2/CH4 separation ability at polymer / silica interfacial region by the hybridization with silica.
