Most metal-organic-framework- (MOF-) based hybrid membranes face the challenge of low gas permeability in CO separation. This study presents a new strategy of interweaving UiO-66 and PIM-1 to build freeways in UiO-66-CN@sPIM-1 membranes for fast CO transport. In this strategy, sPIM-1 is rigidified via thermal treatment to make polymer voids permanent, and concurrently polymer chains are mutually linked onto UiO-66-CN crystals to minimize interfacial defects. The pore chemistry of UiO-66-CN is kept intact in hybrid membranes, allowing full utilization of MOF pores and selective adsorption for CO . Separation results show that UiO-66-CN@sPIM-1 membranes possess exceptionally high CO permeability (15433.4-22665 Barrer), approaching to that of UiO-66-NH crystal (65-75% of crystal-derived permeability). Additionally, the CO /N permeation selectivity for a representative membrane (23.9-28.6) moves toward that of single crystal (24.6-29.6). The unique structure and superior CO /N separation performance make UiO-66-CN@sPIM-1 membranes promising in practical CO separations.
大多数基于金属-有机骨架(MOF)的混合膜在 CO 分离中面临气体渗透率低的挑战。本研究提出了一种将 UiO-66 和 PIM-1 交织在一起的新策略,在 UiO-66-CN@sPIM-1 膜中构建快速 CO 传输的高速公路。在该策略中,sPIM-1 通过热处理被刚性化,以使聚合物空隙永久化,同时聚合物链相互连接到 UiO-66-CN 晶体上,以最小化界面缺陷。混合膜中保持了 UiO-66-CN 的孔化学性质完整,允许充分利用 MOF 孔并对 CO 进行选择性吸附。分离结果表明,UiO-66-CN@sPIM-1 膜具有异常高的 CO 渗透性(15433.4-22665 Barrer),接近 UiO-66-NH 晶体的渗透性(晶体衍生渗透性的 65-75%)。此外,代表性膜的 CO/N 渗透选择性(23.9-28.6)向单晶的 CO/N 渗透选择性(24.6-29.6)靠拢。独特的结构和优异的 CO/N 分离性能使 UiO-66-CN@sPIM-1 膜在实际 CO 分离中具有广阔的应用前景。
