AI Technical Summary
Conventional polyimide gas separation membranes are prone to plasticization when handling high-pressure or highly adsorbent gases, resulting in increased permeability but significantly reduced gas selectivity, which limits their industrial applications.
A method for preparing microporous polyimide gas separation membranes with symmetrical bisbenzimidazole groups is proposed. This method involves reacting a diamine monomer containing symmetrical bisbenzimidazole groups with an anhydride monomer containing pore-forming units to form hydrogen bonds and π-π stacking, thereby enhancing the rigidity between molecular chains. A copolymerization strategy is then used to regulate the membrane performance.
It significantly improves the resistance to plasticization, enhances the selectivity and mechanical properties of the gas separation membrane, enabling it to operate stably under high pressure conditions and with flexible and adjustable performance.
