the performances of two-phase polymer-liquid pebax®/polyethylene glycol (peg) and three-phase polymer-liquid-solid pebax®/peg/mwnt thin film composite membranes for co2 and ch4 permeation were studied. the effect of temperature and mwnt/pebax® ratio on single gas (co2 and ch4) permeability was investigated. the permeation of both gases was measured at different temperatures from 303 to 323 ˚k. ...

a pebax-nano zeolite x mixed matrix membrane was fabricated and operationally characterized using single gas (co2) permeation. x-ray diffraction (xrd) analysis was used to study the arrangement of polymer chains of mixed matrix membrane. the membranes were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (sem) to study cross-sectional morphology. the single gas permeability were carried out for ne...

this paper discusses different important gas permeation models such as “maxwell”, “bruggeman”, “lewis-neilson”, and “pal” models to predict “mixed matrix membranes” (mmms) performance. the main parameter considered and discussed is the permeability of hydrogen on carbon nanotubes (cnts)-mmm. for evaluation of the theoretical models, experimental data of permeability for h2 were compared to the ...
