Abstract
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is a well-known greenhouse gas, and the urgent development of high-performance CO2 separation technologies is essential. In this study, we fabricated a network ionic liquids membrane (ILMs) (CPDEAEMA) by incorporating 1,6-dibromohexane into poly (N, N-diethylaminoethyl methacrylate) (PDEAEMA). Thereafter, different functional ionic (OH–, F−, Cl−, Br−) were introduced by interacting with quaternary ammonium cations, thereby modulating both ionic conductivity and gas permeability. Notably, the F− exchange membrane (F-CPDEAEMA) exhibited both the best ionic conductivity of 10.3 mS/cm, and highest CO2 permeability of 111.5 Barrer combined with CO2/N2 selectivity of 32.0 among different ion exchange membranes. Theoretical calculations indicate that CO2 molecules interact primarily with halogen anions and methyl groups on quaternary ammonium via various weak intermolecular interactions. Among these interactions, CO2 exhibits the strongest interaction with F−, and the calculated results align with the CO2 permeability (F > Br > Cl), confirming the effectiveness of the anion-exchange strategy. This provides a novel approach for designing ionic polymer membranes that enhance both ion-exchange capacity and gas separation efficiency.
期刊介绍:
Separation and Purification Technology is a premier journal committed to sharing innovative methods for separation and purification in chemical and environmental engineering, encompassing both homogeneous solutions and heterogeneous mixtures. Our scope includes the separation and/or purification of liquids, vapors, and gases, as well as carbon capture and separation techniques. However, it's important to note that methods solely intended for analytical purposes are not within the scope of the journal. Additionally, disciplines such as soil science, polymer science, and metallurgy fall outside the purview of Separation and Purification Technology. Join us in advancing the field of separation and purification methods for sustainable solutions in chemical and environmental engineering.
