Pervaporation and Gas Separation Properties of High-Molecular Ladder-like Polyphenylsilsesquioxanes.

ABSTRACT: This paper presents the results of studies on the pervaporation properties (for benzene/hexane mixtures) and gas permeability (for He, H₂, N₂, O₂, CO₂, CH₄, C₂H₆, and C₄H₁₀) of ladder-like polyphenylsesquioxanes (L-PPSQ) with improved physical and chemical properties. These polymers were obtained by condensation of cis-tetraphenylcyclotetrasiloxanetetraol in ammonia medium. The structure of L-PPSQ was fully confirmed by a combination of physicochemical analysis methods: ¹H, ²⁹Si NMR, IR spectroscopy, HPLC, powder XRD, and viscometry in solution. For the first time, a high molecular weight of the polymer (Mn = 238 kDa, Mw = 540 kDa) was achieved, which determines its improved mechanical properties and high potential for use in membrane separation. Using TGA and mechanical analysis methods, it was found that this polymer has high thermal (T_d^5% = 537 °C) and thermal-oxidative stability (T_d^5% = 587 °C) and good mechanical properties (Young's module (E) = 1700 MPa, ultimate tensile stress (σ) = 44 MPa, elongation at break (ε) = 6%), which is important for making membranes workable under various conditions. The polymer showed a high separation factor for a mixture of 10% wt. benzene in n-hexane (126) at a benzene flow of 33 g/(m²h).

Project description:The separation performance of commercial crosslinked poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) membranes (i.e., the new commercial membrane PERVAP™ 4100 H F and standard membrane PERVAP™ 4100) used for the dehydration of two alcohol-water systems (i.e., ethanol-water and isopropanol-water mixtures, with an azeotropic point) were studied based on pervaporation process (PV) experimental data and mathematical modeling. Pervaporation process experiments proved that these two membranes have excellent applicability for the dehydration of alcohol. A semi-empirical solution-diffusion transport model was developed to describe the mass transport in the PVA membranes, which showed a good agreement with the experimental values. The universal quasi-chemical (UNIQUAC) model was utilized to predict the activity coefficient of nonideal alcohol-water systems in PVA membranes. In addition to the UNIQUAC model, the transport of alcohol-water across the commercial polymeric membrane was modeled using the conventional driving force model. The PV process experimental data with the mathematical model were used to develop the diffusivity correlations for water and alcohol (i.e., ethanol and isopropanol) through the PVA membranes. It was found that for swollen membranes (PVA), the developed correlations of water and alcohol diffusivity were strongly influenced by the feed water activity and feed temperature. Based on the mass transport model and developed diffusivity correlations, the permeation flux of water and alcohol through the PVA membranes was predicted, and the results showed a good agreement between the experimental data and the predictive model. The mean relative errors estimated for the permeate mass fluxes of water were 8.4%, and 3.8%, and for the permeate mass fluxes of ethanol were 18%, and 13.6% for the PERVAP™ 4100 and 4100 H F, respectively, as well as for the IPA-water-PVA system are as follows: 5% and 2.8% for the permeate mass fluxes of water and 14.4%, and 12.6% for the permeate mass fluxes of IPA for the PERVAP™ 4100 and 4100 H F, respectively.
