In relation to some inorganic membranes, polymeric membranes have relatively low separation performance. However, the processing flexibility and low cost of polymers still make them highly attractive for many industrial separation applications. Polymer–inorganic hybrid membranes constitute an emerging research field and have been recently developed to improve the separation properties of polyme...

Nanoporous organic polymer/cage composite membranes SUPPORTING INFORMATION

Organophilic membranes provide a method of recovering organic compounds by pervaporation, which exploits the selective transport of the organic phase. The main application is in the extraction of bio-alcohols from aqueous solution. The effect of membrane composition on performance in transporting alcohols and not water at improved rates is the focus of this review. In th...

asymmetrically mixed matrix matrimid-mil-53 membranes with silicone cover layer were fabricated. for better understanding of membrane fabrication process, three main parameters of fabrication, matrimid concentration, silicone concentration and weight percentage of metal organic framework (mil-53) particles, were optimized by an experimental design method. cross-section sem images were used to s...

Nowadays, proton exchange membrane fuel cells (PEMFCs) are the most promising green energy conversion devices for portable and stationary applications. Traditionally, these devices were based onperfluoro-sulfonic acid electrolytes membranes, given the commercial name Nafion. Nafion is the mostused electrolyte membrane till now; because of its high electrochemical properties su...
