Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a metal-containing single-atom molecular sieve carbon membrane with high hydrogen selectivity and a preparation method thereof, and belongs to the fields of membrane separation and new materials. Background Art
[0002] With the continuous depletion of fossil fuels, hydrogen, as a renewable green energy source, is gaining increasing attention. Currently, hydrogen primarily comes from the decomposition of biomass, water, and fossil fuels. However, regardless of the method used, the production process inevitably produces impurities such as N2, CH4, H2O, and CO2. Therefore, the separation and purification of hydrogen is particularly important. Among the many separation methods, membrane separation technology has attracted widespread attention due to its advantages such as environmental friendliness, simple operation, and ease of integration with other chemical separation processes.
[0003] Molecular sieve carbon membrane is a new type of inorganic membrane material made by high-temperature pyrolysis of carbon-containing substances in an inert atmosphere or vacuum environment. It has good thermal and chemical stability, high gas separation selectivity, and can effectively separate small molecular mixed gases with similar molecular sizes, showing unique advantages in hydrogen separation. However, due to the "worm-like" pore structure of the molecular sieve carbon membrane, the gas diffusion channel is narrow and lengthy, and the gas permeability of the pure carbon membrane is often poor. In order to solve this problem, researchers introduced metals with hydrogen adsorption activity into the polymer precursor to prepare metal-containing molecular sieve carbon membranes to improve the permeability of the carbon membrane to hydrogen. Among them, how to select suitable polymers and metals, improve the dispersion of metals inside the membrane, and reduce the non-selective defects introduced by the poor compatibility between the polymer and metal phases are the key to preparing a complete and defect-free molecular sieve carbon membrane. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To solve the above problems, the present invention improves the hydrogen separation performance of molecular sieve carbon membranes by introducing single atoms of iron, nickel, palladium, platinum, etc. that have an adsorption effect on hydrogen into the molecular sieve carbon membrane. Compared with traditional technologies, the metal exists in the form of single atoms, which has higher atomic utilization, catalytic activity and hydrogen adsorption performance; the metal atoms are fixed on the carrier through the defective coordination environment and spatial constraint provided by the carrier, which effectively improves the dispersion of the metal atoms; the carrier loaded with single atoms participates in the polymerization reaction as a polymerization monomer after grafting functional groups to form a metal single atom-containing polymer, which has good compatibility with the polymer body and can reduce the generation of non-selective defects during the membrane preparation and carbonization process. These characteristics are of great significance for the industrial application of high-performance hydrogen separation carbon membranes.

The carbon membrane according to claim 6, characterized in that The polymer membrane containing metal single atoms is cut into membrane sheets of a certain size and placed in a carbonization furnace. In an inert atmosphere, the temperature is raised from room temperature to 600~1000℃ at a rate of 1~10℃ / min and kept constant at this temperature for 1~24h to obtain a molecular sieve carbon membrane containing metal single atoms.
9. A method for preparing a metal-containing single-atom molecular sieve carbon membrane with high hydrogen selectivity, comprising the following steps: (1) Preparation of a support containing a metal atom: The support is activated and grafted with a functional group, and then mixed with an alcohol solution of a metal salt, stirred, centrifuged, washed, and dried to obtain the support. The functional group is one or more of hydroxyl, fluoro, amino, and carboxyl groups, and the corresponding grafting reagent is one or more of 3-methoxysilane propanol, trifluoropropylmethyldimethoxysilane, 3-aminopropyltriethoxysilane, and carboxypropyltrimethoxysilane; the metal salt is one or more of iron salt, nickel salt, palladium salt, and platinum salt; (2) Preparation of metal single atom-containing polymers: The metal single atom-containing carrier, polymer monomer, catalyst, and organic solvent are mixed uniformly in a certain ratio, and nitrogen is used as a protective gas. The mixture is refluxed and stirred at a certain temperature for a certain time. After cooling, the mixture is poured into water, filtered, washed, and dried to obtain the polymer. (3) Preparation of polymer membrane containing metal single atoms: The polymer is dissolved in an organic solvent according to a certain ratio, heated and stirred, centrifuged, and degassed to obtain a casting solution, which is then cast on a flat plate to form a liquid film of a certain thickness, which is then evaporated and vacuum dried to obtain the film; (4) Preparation of metal-containing single-atom molecular sieve carbon membrane: The polymer membrane is heated from room temperature to the final temperature at a certain heating rate in an inert atmosphere, kept constant at this temperature for a period of time, and then cooled in the furnace.
