Diffusion of Light Gases in 6FDA/BPDA-DAM Carbon Molecular Sieve Membranes by Pulsed Field Gradient NMR
نویسندگان
چکیده
In this paper, we demonstrate the potential of pulsed field gradient (PFG) NMR spectroscopy to reveal detailed knowledge of self-diffusion of light gases and light gas mixtures in carbon molecular sieve membranes on small length scales. PFG NMR is used to investigate intra-membrane diffusion of carbon dioxide and methane for a broad range of temperatures and mean square displacements in a carbon molecular sieve membrane derived from a 6FDA/BPDA-DAM polyimide film. Diffusion is investigated with single component sorbates as well as with a carbon dioxide / methane mixture. Results obtained from these studies are compared and discussed.

Sorbate Transport in Carbon Molecular Sieve Membranes and FAU/EMT Intergrowth by Diffusion NMR
In this paper we present and discuss selected results of our recent studies of sorbate self-diffusion in microporous materials. The main focus is given to transport properties of carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes as well as of the intergrowth of FAU-type and EMT-type zeolites. CMS membranes show promise for applications in separations of mixtures of small gas molecules, while FAU/EMT inter...

1. Introduction The combination of MAS NMR spectroscopy with Pulsed Field Gradient (PFG) NMR opens novel possibilities for investigating diffusion processes of heterogeneous, non-liquid samples. The advantages are based on the effect of line narrowing and concern (i) a prolongation of the intervals during which the magnetic field gradients may be applied and a corresponding enhancement in the s...
متن کاملHyperpolarized Gas Polarimetry and Imaging at Low Magnetic Field
MR imaging with polarized noble gases has shown promise in both, biomedical and material’s imaging applications. Its advantage over the conventional proton MRI lies in its ability to produce high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR), high-resolution images at low magnetic field strengths. In this work: 1. We implemented and studied in detail two methods for detecting hyperpolarization levels of 129Xe an...
