Zusammenfassung: | This invention discloses a membrane composition, a method of making, and applications for a new type of high selectivity, high plasticization-resistant and solvent-resistant, both chemically and UV cross-linked polyimide membranes. Gas permeation tests on these membranes demonstrated that they not only showed high selectivities, but also showed extremely high CO2 plasticization resistance under CO2 pressure up to 4923 kPa (700 psig). This new type of high selectivity, high plasticization-resistant and solvent-resistant, both chemically and UV cross-linked polyimide membranes can be used for a wide range of gas separations such as separations of H2/CH4, He/CH4, CO2/CH4, CO2/N2, olefin/paraffin separations (e.g. propylene/propane separation), O2/N2, iso/normal paraffins, polar molecules such as H2O, H2S, and NH3 mixtures with CH4, N2, H2, and other light gases separations. The membranes can also be used for liquid separations such as in the removal of organic compounds from water. |
