[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0026] (1) The method of the present invention involves soaking the base membrane in an acyl chloride solution to spread the acyl chloride evenly on the surface of the base membrane, and then soaking the obtained product in a solution of diamine monomers rich in ether oxygen segments, so that the acyl chloride and diamine monomers rich in ether oxygen segments can undergo interfacial polymerization reaction.

Detailed Implementation

[0031] The following provides a detailed description of specific embodiments of the present invention. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative and explanatory purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of the invention.

[0032] The endpoints and any values ​​of the ranges disclosed herein are not limited to the precise ranges or values, and these ranges or values ​​should be understood to include values ​​close to these ranges or values. For numerical ranges, the endpoint values ​​of the various ranges, the endpoint values ​​of the various ranges and individual point values, and individual point values ​​can be combined with each other to obtain one or more new numerical ranges, which should be considered as specifically disclosed herein.

[0033] The method for preparing the composite membrane provided by the present invention includes the following steps:

[0034] S1. Immerse the base film in an acyl chloride solution;

[0035] S2. The product obtained in step S1 is immersed in a solution containing a diamine monomer and an acid absorbent to carry out an interfacial polymerization reaction, wherein the diamine monomer contains an ether oxygen segment and the number of ether oxygen bonds is ≥2.

[0036] S3. Dry the product obtained in step S2.

[0037] In the method described in this invention, the inventors discovered that by immersing the base membrane in an acyl chloride solution in a specific order to allow the acyl chloride to spread evenly on the surface of the base membrane, and then immersing the resulting product in a solution containing a specific diamine monomer, the acyl chloride and the diamine monomer undergo an interfacial polymerization reaction, thereby obtaining a composite membrane with good permeability and separation performance. Due to the polymerization reaction, a polyamide separation layer is formed on the surface of the composite membrane on the base membrane.

[0038] In this invention, the base membrane can be a polymer membrane commonly used in the art. In a preferred embodiment, the base membrane in step S1 is a base membrane with an intermediate layer, that is, the base membrane includes a polymer support layer and an intermediate layer coated on the surface of the polymer support layer, wherein the intermediate layer is a polydimethylsiloxane layer and / or its derivative layer; in this invention, coating the surface of the polymer support layer with a polydimethylsiloxane layer and / or its derivative layer is to prevent the formed polyamide separation layer from seeping into the pores of the polymer support layer, causing a sharp drop in performance. In some embodiments, the polymer support layer can be made of at least one selected from polysulfone, polyacrylonitrile, and polyethersulfone. Preferably, the polymer support layer is an ultrafiltration membrane made of polysulfone, polyacrylonitrile, or polyethersulfone.

[0039] In this invention, the acyl chloride is a reactive monomer that undergoes interfacial polymerization with a diamine monomer. In some embodiments, the acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is an acyl chloride having two carbonyl chloride functional groups and / or three carbonyl chloride functional groups. In some more specific embodiments, the acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution includes, but is not limited to, at least one of terephthaloyl chloride, isophthaloyl chloride, trimesoyl chloride, glutaryl chloride, and adipyl chloride. In a more preferred embodiment, the acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is isophthaloyl chloride and / or trimesoyl chloride.

[0040] In some embodiments, the concentration of acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution in step S1 can be 0.4~5 g / L, for example 0.5 g / L, 1 g / L, 1.5 g / L, 2 g / L, 2.5 g / L, 3 g / L, 3.5 g / L, 4 g / L, 4.5 g / L, or 5 g / L. In the method described in this invention, if the concentration of acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is too high, the interfacial polymerization of the acyl chloride and diamine monomer will result in excessively high polymer crosslinking degree and membrane thickness, thereby reducing the CO2 permeation performance of the prepared composite membrane. If the concentration of acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is too low, the polymer crosslinking degree will decrease, the membrane thickness will decrease, leading to reduced CO2 selectivity, and may even cause unstable interfacial polymerization and failure to form a membrane. To ensure that the prepared composite membrane has both excellent permeation and separation performance, and further improve the performance of the composite membrane, in a preferred embodiment, the concentration of acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is 2-2.5 g / L.

[0041] In this invention, the acyl chloride solution can be an organic solution. The solvent for the acyl chloride solution can be a conventional choice in the art; in some embodiments, the solvent for the acyl chloride solution can be selected from at least one of n-pentane, n-hexane, n-heptane, and cyclohexane.

[0042] In some embodiments, the soaking time in step S1 can be 10 seconds to 2 minutes, for example, 10 seconds, 30 seconds, 1 minute, 1.5 minutes, or 2 minutes. In this invention, the soaking time in step S1 is only required to ensure that the acyl chloride can be evenly spread on the surface of the base film.

[0043] In this invention, the method further includes: after immersing the base film in the acyl chloride solution, removing the base film and allowing it to stand to allow the solution on the surface to evaporate. The standing time does not need to be too long; in some embodiments, the standing time can be 0.5 to 2 minutes.

[0044] In some embodiments, in the solution containing diamine monomer and acid absorbent described in step S2, the concentration of the diamine monomer is 0.2~10 g / L, for example 0.5 g / L, 0.8 g / L, 1 g / L, 2 g / L, 2.5 g / L, 3 g / L, 4 g / L, 5 g / L, 6 g / L, 7 g / L, 8 g / L, 9 g / L, or 10 g / L. In the method described in this invention, if the concentration of the diamine monomer is too high, the interfacial polymerization of the diamine monomer with the acyl chloride will result in excessively high polymer crosslinking degree and membrane thickness, thereby reducing the CO2 permeation performance of the prepared composite membrane; if the concentration of the diamine monomer is too low, the polymer crosslinking degree will decrease, the membrane thickness will decrease, leading to reduced CO2 selectivity, and may even cause unstable interfacial polymerization and failure to form a membrane. In order to ensure that the prepared composite membrane has both excellent permeation and separation properties, and to further improve the performance of the composite membrane, in a preferred embodiment, the concentration of the diamine monomer in the solution containing the diamine monomer and the acid absorbent in step S2 is 2~5 g / L.

[0045] In the method described in this invention, to facilitate better polymerization of the diamine monomer and the acyl chloride, the two end groups of the main molecular chain of the diamine monomer can be primary amine groups. In some embodiments, the diamine monomer containing ether oxygen segments and having ≥2 ether oxygen bonds is 2,2'-(ethylenedioxy)bis(ethylamine) and / or O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol, preferably O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol. The molecular weight of O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol can be 400-1000. For example, O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol can be ED-600 and / or ED-900.

[0046] In this invention, preferably, the solution containing the diamine monomer and the acid absorbent is an aqueous solution. The inventors have found that the higher the molecular weight of the diamine monomer in the aqueous solution, the weaker its ability to diffuse from the homogeneous aqueous solution to the oil-water interface, and the weaker the reactivity of the amino group with the acyl chloride. However, a high molecular weight of the diamine monomer in the aqueous solution can provide a higher density of ether oxygen segments within the membrane, which is beneficial for the membrane's affinity for CO2 molecules. Furthermore, using a higher molecular weight inorganic phase monomer can result in a relatively soft and porous membrane structure, which is beneficial for improving CO2 permeation performance. Therefore, in order to obtain a separation membrane with excellent permeation and separation performance, and to further improve the performance of the composite membrane, in a preferred embodiment, the molecular weight of O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol is 600.

[0047] In a more preferred embodiment, the acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is isophthaloyl chloride and / or trimesoyl chloride, and the molecular weight of O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol is 600. The composite membrane prepared using this preferred embodiment has superior performance.

[0048] In one embodiment, when the acyl chloride is trimesoyl pyromellitic chloride and the diamine monomer is O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol, the basic structural equation for the reaction between the acyl chloride and the diamine monomer is as follows:

[0049]

[0050] .

[0051] In this invention, the acid absorbent serves to absorb hydrogen chloride generated from the reaction of acyl chloride and diamine monomer. In some embodiments, the concentration of the acid absorbent in the solution containing the diamine monomer and the acid absorbent in step S2 is 0.2~1.6 g / L. In this invention, the acid absorbent can be a common alkaline substance in the art. In some embodiments, the acid absorbent can be selected from at least one of sodium hydroxide, sodium bicarbonate, and sodium carbonate.

[0052] In some embodiments, the reaction time of the interfacial polymerization reaction in step S2 can be 10 s to 2 min, for example, 10 s, 20 s, 30 s, 40 s, 50 s, 1 min, 1.5 min, or 2 min. In order to further improve the permeation performance and separation performance of the composite membrane to a higher level at the same time, in some preferred embodiments, the reaction time of the interfacial polymerization reaction in step S2 is 10 s to 1 min.

[0053] In the method described in this invention, the method further includes: after the interfacial polymerization reaction is completed, taking out the obtained product and rinsing its surface with deionized water.

[0054] In this invention, the product obtained from the interfacial polymerization reaction undergoes thermal crosslinking during drying in step S3. This thermal crosslinking causes the small-molecule oligomers to re-crosslink, forming a denser polymer network. In some embodiments, the drying temperature in step S3 can be 40–80°C, and the drying time can be 5–20 min. To further improve the performance of the composite membrane, in a more preferred embodiment, the drying temperature in step S3 is 45–60°C.

[0055] In a preferred embodiment, the method for preparing the composite membrane includes the following steps:

[0056] S1. Using a polysulfone ultrafiltration membrane coated with a polydimethylsiloxane interlayer as the base membrane, the base membrane is immersed in an acyl chloride solution with a concentration of 2-2.5 g / L, then removed and allowed to stand. The acyl chloride in the acyl chloride solution is isophthaloyl chloride and / or trimesoyl chloride.

[0057] S2. The product obtained in step S1 is immersed in a solution containing diamine monomer and acid absorbent for interfacial polymerization reaction for 10s to 1min. After removal, its surface is rinsed with water. The diamine monomer is O,O'-di(2-aminopropyl)polypropylene glycol-block-polyethylene glycol-block-polypropylene glycol with a molecular weight of 500-600, and the concentration of the diamine monomer is 2-5g / L.

[0058] S3. The product obtained in step S2 is dried and thermally crosslinked at 45~60℃.

[0059] The composite membrane prepared by this preferred embodiment exhibits the best performance; for the CO2 / N2 system, the separation membrane achieves a CO2 permeation rate of up to 1591.7 GPU and a separation factor of up to 78.55. Figure 1 As shown, the composite membrane prepared by this preferred embodiment includes a polymer support layer, an intermediate layer covering the surface of the polymer support layer, and a separation layer located on the surface of the intermediate layer.

[0060] The experimental conditions of this invention are easy to control, and the resulting ether-rich oxygen-segmented polyamide membrane exhibits excellent film-forming properties. The prepared composite membrane demonstrates excellent permeability selectivity and high repeatability. This preparation process can be used for scale-up production to mass-produce CO2 separation composite membranes.

[0061] This invention also provides a composite membrane prepared by the method described above. This composite membrane is an ether-rich oxygen-segment polyamide composite membrane, exhibiting excellent permeation and separation properties.

[0062] This invention also provides a composite membrane prepared by the method described above and its application as a carbon dioxide separation membrane. The ether-rich oxygen-segmented polyamide membrane composite membrane provided by this invention exhibits excellent CO2 separation performance and has strong application prospects.

[0063] The following examples further illustrate the preparation method of the composite membrane, the composite membrane itself, and its application as a carbon dioxide separation membrane. These examples are implemented based on the technical solution of this invention, providing detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures; however, the scope of protection of this invention is not limited to the following examples.
