Abstract

Abstract: A series of polyimide/TiO₂ composite membranes supported on TiO₂ /kieselguhr-mullite (K-M) were prepared via a sol-gel process. Their morphologies, chemical structures, thermal performances, pore distribution and gas permeability were characterized by transmission electron microscope (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), solid-state ¹³C CP/MAS NMR, thermogravimetric analysis (TG/DTA), N₂ adsorption and gas permeability measurement. The results show the TiO₂ phase is well dispersed in the polyimide matrix. The TiO₂ phase is connected with the polyimide through the pendant carboxyl along the polyimide chain. The polyimide/TiO₂ composite membrane possesses finely thermal stability. The composite membranes show higher separation properties for H₂, CO₂, N₂ and H₂O when compared to pure polyimide. The separation factors of the polyimide/TiO₂ composite membranes with 5wt% TiO₂ contents for H₂/N₂, CO₂/N₂and H₂O/N₂are
64.2, 42.5 and 80.8, respectively.

Key words: polyimide/TiO2, composite materials, sol-gel, gas separation
