Abstract

In present study, a few polysulfone composite membranes with the introduction of silver ion-exchange treated zeolite were prepared and evaluated by several characterization methods. Regularly-ordered zeolite particles were generally finely dispersed in the continuous PSF phase with appreciated organic-inorganic interfacial interactions as reflected by SEM and FTIR results. Gas permeation test shows that after incorporating zeolite the polysulfone membrane exhibits significantly decreased gas permeability for H2, N2, and CO2 whereas they show increased permselectivity for CO2/N2, H2/CO2 and H2/N2 gas pairs as compared to neat polysulfone membrane.
