Abstract

This paper reports the preparation of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) by incorporating a two-dimensional zeolitic imidazolate framework-L (ZIF-L) into a highly gas permeable hydroxyl group-containing polyimide (PI) for hydrogen separation. ZIF-L has a leaf-shaped morphology with excellent CO₂ adsorption properties due to strong interaction between ZIF-L and CO₂ molecules. The dispersion of ZIF-L crystals in the polymer phase increased CO₂ adsorption and restricted CO₂ transport through MMMs, resulting in a significant increase of H₂ selectivity over CO₂. The gas transport properties of MMMs with a ZIF-L loading up to 20 wt% were investigated, and the results showed such MMMs had a H₂ permeability of 260 Barrers and ideal H₂/CO₂ selectivity of 13.4 at room temperature. The membranes presented here have the potential for large-scale fabrication for hydrogen separation applications.
