Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of membrane preparation and application, and specifically relates to a polyimide carbon molecular sieve membrane containing benzimidazole and a preparation method and application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Biogas, which consists of a mixture of carbon dioxide and methane (CO2 / CH4) gases, has become a renewable fuel alternative to natural gas. Compared with traditional chemical fuels such as coal and oil, methane releases a relatively small amount of carbon dioxide per unit of energy, which also reduces the greenhouse effect caused by the combustion of fossil fuels to a certain extent. With the increase in people's energy consumption, the demand for natural gas and biogas is increasing. However, natural gas and biogas often contain a large amount of carbon dioxide (CO2), which not only affects the combustion effect of biogas and causes corrosion to transportation pipelines, but also brings a series of environmental problems. At the same time, the greenhouse effect caused by CO2 gas is causing more and more serious consequences. Therefore, it is imperative to separate CO2 from these mixed gases.

[0003] The main industrial methods for CO2 removal include absorption (including physical absorption, chemical absorption and mixed solvent absorption), membrane separation, cryogenic distillation and adsorption, etc. Among them, membrane separation technology has the advantages of simple operation, low energy consumption, high cost-effectiveness, high selectivity, easy scale-up and can be used in combination with other separation technologies.

[0004] Polyimide has become a widely used gas separation membrane material because of its good film-forming properties, mechanical properties and high radiation resistance, and its wide variety and diverse forms. Aromatic heterocyclic polymers containing benzimidazole groups are well-known for their excellent molecular sieving properties, which are attributed to highly stacked polymer chains and strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds (Hu L, BuiV T, Huang L, et al. Facilely crosslinking polybenzimidazole with polycarboxylicacids to improve H2 / CO2 separation performance [J]. ACS Appl. Mater. Inter., 2021, 13, 12521-12530), but polyimide membranes containing benzimidazoles greatly reduce the permeability of the membrane while improving the selectivity. Summary of the invention

[0047] Furthermore, the vacuum drying treatment is carried out at a temperature of 50 to 100° C. and for a time of 12 to 24 hours.

[0048] In some preferred embodiments, the preparation method specifically includes: mixing the benzimidazole-containing polyimide with a solvent to form a polymer solution, then stirring and filtering at room temperature, and then coating the obtained solution on the surface of the substrate and drying it to obtain a precursor film; wherein the content of the polymer solution is 5 to 10 wt%.

[0051] In some more specific embodiments, the method for preparing the polyimide carbon molecular sieve membrane containing benzimidazole comprises the following steps:

[0052] (1) Preparation of polyimide precursor film containing benzimidazole:

[0053] Under nitrogen protection, dianhydride monomer A, catalyst triethylamine and ethanol are added to the reactor and dissolved at 80°C. After complete dissolution, add the Dean-Stark device and continue stirring the reaction for 1h. Raise the temperature to 120°C, increase the flow rate of nitrogen, and evaporate ethanol out of the reaction system. Add benzimidazole diamine and diamine monomer B to the reactor, and flush the wall with solvent A and dehydrating agent toluene. Raise the temperature to 180°C and react for 12h. Dilute with solvent A to a solid content of 15%, and reduce the temperature to 80°C. Pour the reaction solution into an ethanol-water mixture to obtain a flocculent precipitate. Dissolve in chloroform, precipitate the ethanol-water mixture, and after three cycles, vacuum dry at 120°C to obtain a white solid. Dissolve the polymer in solvent A to form a 1-5wt.% polymer solution and stir at room temperature for 24-36h. Use a 1μm PFTE filter to filter the solution to remove insoluble impurities. Slowly apply the polymer solution to a flat and dry glass plate. After drying in a constant temperature drying oven, the glass plate is moved to a vacuum oven and dried until the solvent is completely removed.

[0054] Furthermore, the solvent A is N-methylpyrrolidone and / or N,N-dimethylacetamide.

[0055] Furthermore, the mass fraction of the polymer solution is 5-10%.

[0056] Furthermore, the drying temperature of the constant temperature drying oven is 50-100° C., and the drying time is 12-24 hours.

[0057] Furthermore, the drying temperature of the vacuum drying oven is 150-300° C., and the drying time is 12-24 hours.

[0060] Furthermore, the protective gas A is one of nitrogen, helium and argon.

[0061] Furthermore, the heating temperature of the tubular furnace is 450-800° C., and the heating time is 5-10 hours.

[0063] The good permeability of the benzimidazole-containing polyimide carbon molecular sieve membrane of the present invention is attributed to the orderly arrangement of imidazole rings in the polymer main chain and the highly twisted rigid structure. In addition, the highly stacked polymer chains and strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds are beneficial to the selectivity of carbon dioxide / methane.

[0079] Comparative Example 1

[0080] The benzimidazole-containing polyimide precursor used in the present invention is prepared by a two-step method (esterification method). Under nitrogen protection, 1mmol 2,2',3,3'-biphenyltetracarboxylic acid dianhydride, 5mmol triethylamine and 2mL ethanol are added to a reactor and dissolved at 80°C.

[0081] Dissolve 0.25g of benzimidazole-containing polyimide precursor in 5mL NMP and stir at room temperature for 24h to form a 5% polymer solution. Filter the solution with a 1μm PFTE filter to remove insoluble impurities.

[0082] Figure 1 The infrared spectra of the polyimide carbon molecular sieve membrane containing benzimidazole prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Example 1 of the present invention are as follows: Figure 1 It can be seen that the comparative example 1 shows ~1780cm- 1 The asymmetric stretching vibration absorption peak of C=O at 1700cm- 1 The symmetric stretching vibration absorption peak of C=O at 1365cm- 1 The stretching vibration absorption peak of CN at is the characteristic absorption peak of the imide group. As the carbonization temperature gradually increases, most of the functional groups in the examples gradually disappear, which is related to the decomposition of the polymer functional groups at higher carbonization temperatures.

[0083] The methane and carbon dioxide permeabilities and selectivities of the carbon molecular sieve membranes prepared in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-3 are shown in Table 1.

[0084] Table 1

[0085]

[0086] Compared with Control Example 1, at different carbonization temperatures of the same polyimide precursor, the carbon molecular sieve membrane containing benzimidazole structure, such as the embodiment, has higher permeability. Aromatic heterocyclic polymers containing benzimidazole groups are well-known for their excellent molecular sieving performance, which is attributed to highly stacked polymer chains and strong intermolecular hydrogen bonds. However, while the benzimidazole-containing polyimide membrane improves selectivity, it greatly reduces the permeability of the membrane. It can be seen from the performance of Example 3 that with the increase of carbonization temperature, the membrane permeability decreases, while the selectivity increases, which is related to the shrinkage of discontinuous micropores in the membrane caused by the increase of carbonization temperature.

[0087] Depend on Figure 2 It can be seen that the XRD peaks of Examples 1-3 have a certain right shift corresponding to the XRD peak of Control Example 1. As the carbonization temperature of the polyimide precursor containing benzimidazole increases, the XRD peak has a certain right shift, and the molecular chain spacing continues to decrease. This is related to the decomposition of polymer functional groups at higher carbonization temperatures. The methane / carbon dioxide selectivity of Example 3 is significantly increased, which is confirmed by the gas separation data.

[0088] In addition, the inventors of this case also referred to the aforementioned embodiments and conducted experiments with other raw materials, process operations, and process conditions described in this specification, and obtained relatively ideal results.

[0089] It should be understood that the technical solution of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned specific implementation cases. Any technical deformation made according to the technical solution of the present invention without departing from the scope of protection of the purpose of the present invention and the claims shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
