Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of mixed matrix membrane materials technology. In particular, it relates to a mixed matrix hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membrane based on tannic acid-modified MOF, its preparation method, and its applications. Background Technology
[0002] In core industrial sectors such as petrochemicals and energy chemicals, the efficient separation of alkanes and olefins is a crucial link restricting the upgrading of the industrial chain and achieving energy conservation and emission reduction. It is also a core separation problem recognized by the industry as influencing the global chemical industry development landscape. Traditional separation methods (such as cryogenic distillation and adsorption separation) generally suffer from significant drawbacks such as high energy consumption, complex operation, and large equipment investment, making them unsuitable for the development demands of energy conservation, emission reduction, and efficient separation in industrial sectors. To address this challenge, hybrid matrix membrane strategies have been widely explored and applied. The core of these strategies is to combine functional nanoparticles (such as MOFs) with polymer matrices, aiming to synergistically improve the gas permeability and molecular sieving selectivity of the membrane, compensating for the performance shortcomings of single-matrix membranes. However, existing hybrid matrix membranes still face core technological bottlenecks: poor interfacial compatibility between nanoparticles and polymer matrices, leading to easy aggregation and resulting in membrane structural defects and uneven pore size distribution, making it difficult to achieve precise sieving of alkanes and olefins. High-temperature pyrolysis can promote the carbonization and reconstruction of polymer matrix by directional pyrolysis of mixed matrix precursors, and form a uniform microporous structure that is tightly bound to nanoparticles. This effectively solves the problems of interface defects and pore size disorder, and provides a feasible path for efficient separation.
[0003] However, the preparation of existing mixed-matrix carbon molecular sieve membranes faces insurmountable technical bottlenecks: poor interfacial compatibility between MOF particles and polymer precursors leads to easy aggregation in the spinning solution, resulting in disordered pore structure and widened pore size distribution during subsequent pyrolysis, hindering precise ethylene / ethane separation. Furthermore, traditional MOF doping systems do not specifically modify the MOF particles, resulting in significant interfacial defects between the MOF and polymer matrix. During pyrolysis, MOF particle detachment and pore collapse are common, further contributing to low membrane separation selectivity and unstable permeation flux. This makes it difficult to balance permeability and selectivity, failing to meet the industrial application requirements for ethylene / ethane separation.
[0004] Therefore, the key to overcoming existing technological bottlenecks lies in developing a modification strategy that can improve the interfacial compatibility between MOF particles and the polymer matrix, achieve uniform dispersion of MOF particles, and combine this strategy with dry-jet wet spinning to prepare high-performance hybrid matrix hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membranes. This would solve problems such as MOF agglomeration, interfacial defects, and disordered pore structure, achieving efficient separation of ethylene / ethane. Currently, no publicly disclosed technical solution uses modified MOFs combined with polymer precursors to prepare hybrid matrix hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membranes through a high-temperature carbonization process to solve the aforementioned technical challenges. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The technical problem to be solved by this invention is to address the problems of MOF particle agglomeration, poor interfacial compatibility, disordered pore structure, poor separation performance, and difficulty in achieving both permeability and selectivity in the existing mixed matrix membranes for ethylene / ethane separation.

[0006] The innovation of this invention lies in the first-time combination of tannic acid-modified MOF with cellulose precursor, and the preparation of a mixed matrix hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membrane through a dry-jet wet spinning-high-temperature carbonization process. Tannic acid modification not only solves the technical problems of MOF particle aggregation and poor interfacial compatibility, but also guides the directional reconstruction of the carbon matrix during the carbonization process, further optimizing the pore structure. This overcomes the dilemma of traditional mixed matrix membranes that are difficult to balance selectivity and permeability.

After spinning, the hollow fiber membrane is soaked in deionized water for 4 days, and the deionized water is replaced every 12 hours. After soaking, the mixed matrix precursor membrane is obtained. The parameters of the dry-jet wet spinning process are as follows: the core liquid is deionized water, and the core liquid temperature, spinning solution temperature, and coagulation bath temperature are all 25℃; the spinning solution flow rate is 6 mL / min, the core liquid flow rate is 1.5 mL / min, the height of the spinning head from the water surface is 3 cm, the drawing rate is 7.8 m / min, and the winding rate is 8.0 m / min.

[0051] Performance characterization and testing: Reference Figure 1 The image shows a TEM image of the tannic acid-modified ZIF-8 prepared in Example 1.
[0052] Reference Figure 2 The images show the tannic acid-modified ZIF-8 prepared in Example 1 and the ZIF-8 prepared in Comparative Example 2 after dispersion in DMSO solvent. It can be seen that the tannic acid-modified ZIF-8 is more stable in dispersion in the solvent and is less prone to sedimentation.
[0053] Reference Figure 3 The images show the low-field NMR spectra of the precursor membranes prepared in Example 1, Comparative Examples 1 and 2. The original base membrane, the unmodified ZIF mixed matrix membrane, and the modified ZIF mixed matrix membrane are labeled as Pristine, MMMs, and pMMMs, respectively, demonstrating that the hydrogen bonding between tannic acid and the precursor cellulose is enhanced after modification.
[0054] Figure 4 The images show SEM images of the hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membranes prepared in Example 1 (right) and Comparative Example 2 (left), demonstrating that the tannic acid-modified ZIF-8 is more uniformly dispersed in the carbon molecular sieve membrane and no obvious defects are generated.
[0055] Figure 5 The X-ray diffraction patterns are of the hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membranes prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2, respectively. The carbon molecular sieve membranes prepared in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are labeled as pMMCMs, Pristine, and MMCMs, respectively, demonstrating the reduction in interlayer spacing of the carbon molecular sieve membranes after tannic acid modification of ZIF-8.
[0056] The gas separation performance test data of Examples 1, 2, 3, and 4 and Comparative Examples 1 and 2 are shown in Table 1 below: Table 1 According to the test results in Table 1: Comparison between the examples and the comparative examples: The gas permeation performance and selectivity of the examples are significantly better than those of the comparative examples. The hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membrane obtained by doping with ZIF-8 (Comparative Example 2) has improved gas flux but reduced selectivity compared with the hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membrane obtained without ZIF-8 (Comparative Example 1). However, when ZIF-8 is modified with tannic acid (Example 1), the gas flux and selectivity of the hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membrane are greatly improved, showing a significantly superior effect. Comparison between examples: A comparison of Examples 1 and 2 with Examples 3 and 4 shows that the selection of different MOF particles has a significant impact on the gas flux of the obtained hollow fiber carbon molecular sieve membrane, and also has a certain impact on the gas selectivity. Overall, using ZIF-8 as the MOF particle can achieve the best results. The comparison between Examples 1 and 2 shows that, within a certain range, increasing the doping concentration of tannic acid modified ZIF-8 particles can increase the gas flux, but will reduce the selectivity. Therefore, it is necessary to strictly control the doping concentration of tannic acid modified ZIF-8 particles.
