Abstract

A hypercrosslinked polymer doped with Ag(i) shows high selectivity toward olefins over paraffins under flowing conditions.

Highlights

  • The separation of ole ns and paraffins is one of the most important processes in the chemical industry

  • By varying the amount of crosslinker to monomer in the synthesis of the hypercrosslinked polymers (HCPs), the amount of Ag(I) can be ne-tuned to optimise performance for the separation

  • It is expected that the combination of microporosity and Ag(I) ions should give the HCP excellent ole n/paraffin separation ability

Summary

Introduction

The separation of ole ns and paraffins is one of the most important processes in the chemical industry. HCP-3 has the lowest proportion of crosslinking and the lowest surface area, it has more available non-crosslinked aromatic sites for postfunctionalization, which results in SAM-HCP-3 and SAM-HCPAg-3 having the highest concentration of sulfonic acid groups and highest Ag(I) loading, respectively. Propane and propene sorption isotherms were measured up to 1 bar for the three Ag(I) doped HCPs at 273 and at 298 K (Fig. 2a).
