Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to a high-performance dual-network CO2 separation membrane for separating CO2 and a preparation method and application thereof, and belongs to the field of membrane separation. BACKGROUND
[0002] Developing efficient carbon capture and storage technology has been widely recognized as an effective strategy to reduce CO2 emissions and mitigate the negative impacts of climate change.
[0003] Although CO2 separation membrane technology shows great application potential, it still faces many challenges. As a clean and low-carbon technology, membrane separation CO2 technology has attracted widespread social attention and shown great potential in large-scale capture of CO2.
[0004] Currently, the separation and purification method of CO2 can be realized by various methods, mainly including adsorption method, cryogenic separation technology, pressure swing adsorption method (PSA method), membrane permeation separation technology, etc. The adsorption method uses the selective adsorption ability of adsorbents to CO2 for separation. Common adsorbents include activated carbon, molecular sieve, porous ceramic, and porous materials such as zeolite, alumina, etc. The advantages of the adsorption method are simple process and low energy consumption, but the regeneration and disposal of the adsorbent are problems to be considered. The cryogenic separation technology is a low-temperature distillation method that converts CO2 into a liquid or supercritical fluid, which is then separated. It requires multiple freezing separations to achieve high purity, so the investment and energy consumption are very high; the PSA method can obtain high-purity CO2, but the adsorption capacity is limited, a large amount of adsorbent is required, and the adsorption and desorption are frequent, which requires a high degree of automation. Gas membrane separation technology, with its unique technical advantages, utilizes the pressure difference between the two sides of the membrane as the mass transfer driving force and the difference in permeation rate of different gases through the membrane material to realize component separation. This technology not only has small occupation area, simple operation and green environmental protection, but also has no pollution characteristics, showing extremely broad application prospects and great potential in the field of CO2 separation.
[0005] In recent years, high polymer materials have been booming, and various materials provide a good foundation for membrane separation. Polymer membranes dominate the CO2 separation membrane market due to their excellent flexibility, film-forming property and gas separation performance. Membrane separation method mainly relies on synthetic polymer materials with customizable gas transmission properties. Although polymer membranes have been widely used in many fields, there are still many problems in realizing efficient separation of CO2 and N2 and other gases. The kinetic diameter of CO2 (3.30 Å) is similar to that of N2 (3.64 Å) and CH4 (3.80 Å), so the selectivity of traditional polymer membranes for CO2 is low, which limits their application in CO2 separation. Because CO2 is a polar gas, its special chemical properties often cause aging of the polymer membrane and may cause plasticization of the membrane, thereby affecting the stability and separation performance of the membrane material. Polyimide materials derived from aromatic dianhydride and diamine are one of the best gas separation application materials in terms of comprehensive performance. Polyimide membranes have good thermal stability, chemical stability, excellent mechanical properties and high free volume, which make them exhibit good gas selectivity and permeation capacity. However, the separation efficiency of the current polyimide membranes on the market in the separation of key gas pairs such as CO2 / N2 and CO2 / CH4 still needs to be improved, and this limitation constitutes a major challenge in the process of widely promoting and applying them in industry. SUMMARY
[0006] To solve the problems of low separation efficiency, poor selectivity and easy aging in CO2 separation membranes, the present application provides a double-network CO2 separation membrane.
[0007] In one embodiment, the double-network CO2 separation membrane is obtained by metal coordination and covalent crosslinking of a TB polymer containing an alkyne group and a carboxyl group.
[0008] The metal coordination is: dissolving the TB polymer containing an alkyne group and a carboxyl group in an organic solution of metal ions to obtain a metal coordination type CO2 separation membrane.
[0009] The covalent crosslinking is: covalent crosslinking of the metal coordination type CO2 separation membrane by heating to obtain a double-network CO2 separation membrane.
[0010] In one embodiment, the TB polymer containing an alkyne group and a carboxyl group has the following structure:
[0011]
[0012] wherein n is 20-45, and the number average molecular weight of the polymer is 20000-40000 g / mol.
[0013] The polymer containing alkyne and carboxyl is obtained by reacting a diamine monomer containing alkyne and carboxyl with formaldehyde dimethyl acetal in a trifluoroacetic acid solvent.
[0014] In one embodiment, the diamine monomer containing alkyne and carboxyl has the following structural formula:
[0015]
[0016] The present application provides an innovative polymer material, which has similar structure to polyimide, and the polymer combines the rigid structure of Troger base and the unique three-dimensional structure of triptycene. This unique molecular design contains the excellent performance of polyimide, and further improves the gas separation performance of the material by introducing the TB rigid structure and triptycene structure. The present application designs and synthesizes a diamine monomer containing alkyne and carboxyl, polymerizes the diamine monomer containing alkyne and carboxyl, and prepares a cross-linkable TB polymer. The "combination of metal coordination and covalent bond interaction" constructs a double network type CO2 separation membrane. Each unit of the polymer chain contains a triptycene structure and a rigid V-shaped bridge, forming a large free volume in the interior of the polymer membrane, which improves the CO2 permeation coefficient. On the other hand, the coordination network and the cross-linking network further adjust the pore size, improve the CO2 / N2 and CO2 / CH4 selectivity; the construction of the double network structure and the introduction of bulky groups synergistically prepare CO2 separation membranes with novel structure and excellent performance. Finally, the fully aromatic reticular polymer formed by covalent cross-linking can inhibit the spontaneous creep and relaxation of the polymer chain over time, achieve the purpose of anti-aging, and will undergo pore expansion to improve the gas permeability, and the coordination network formed will improve the gas permeability and selectivity, successfully breaking the traditional inherent trade-off effect between gas permeability and selectivity, i.e. "trade-off" effect.
[0017] The double network type CO2 separation membrane of the present application has high selectivity in the application system of separating CO2 / N2 and CO2 / CH4, and also has good permeability for CO2. The purity of the separated CO2 is high. In the 50-day aging data test, the CO2 permeation coefficient of the uncross-linked CO2 separation membrane decreased from 105.8 Barrer to 60.4 Barrer, with a decrease of 42.9%; while the CO2 permeation coefficient of the double network type CO2 separation membrane decreased from 158.6 Barrer to 154.4 Barrer, with a decrease of 2.6%, which has good stability.

When mixed gas experiments are performed, all valves except valve 8 are opened to allow argon to be swept on the transverse side to maintain a stable transmembrane pressure difference of 0.1 MPa. To ensure the reliability and consistency of the experimental results, each film sample needs to be repeated at least three times.
[0059] (3) After the test is completed, ensure that the gas in the device is discharged completely through the tail gas treatment device. Then turn off the power of the device and take out the completed sample.

[0136] Result analysis
[0137] According to Figure 2 The optical photograph of the separation membrane shows that the uncrosslinked CO2 separation membrane has a smooth surface without obvious defects, and the color is light yellow, while the metal coordination type CO2 separation membrane has a smooth and flat surface, and the color of the membrane surface is deepened due to the presence of Fe 3+ ; after heat treatment of the metal coordination type CO2 separation membrane, a double network type CO2 separation membrane is obtained, which still has a relatively smooth and flat surface, and the color of the membrane surface is further deepened, which can be inferred that the reaction has been completed.

Compared with Comparative Examples 2 and 3, the importance of coupling covalent crosslinking and metal coordination strategies is illustrated, and the double network structure synergistically enhances the CO2 mass transfer separation and the role of physical aging resistance. As can be seen from the long-term stability test data in Table 2, in the 50-day aging data test, the CO2 permeation coefficient of the uncrosslinked CO2 membrane decreased from 105.8 Barrer to 60.4 Barrer, a decrease of 42.9%; the CO2 permeation coefficient of the covalently crosslinked CO2 separation membrane decreased from 125.6 Barrer to 118.3 Barrer, a decrease of 5.8%; the CO2 permeation coefficient of the metal coordination type CO2 separation membrane decreased from 130.8 Barrer to 104.1 Barrer, a decrease of 20.4%; and the CO2 permeation coefficient of the double network type separation membrane decreased from 158.6 Barrer to 154.4 Barrer, a decrease of 2.6%, with good stability.
