Abstract

Novel membrane materials—three-dimensional polydimethylsiloxane networks with nonaggregated metal atoms (Fe, Zr)—have been synthesized using commercial siloxane rubber SKTN and polyfunctional metallosiloxane as a crosslinking agent. For the resulting composites, the permeability, diffusion, and solubility coefficients for a wide range of gases have been determined. It has been found that the permeability coefficients for most of the gases are close to values previously obtained for linear siloxanes; however, the permeability and Р(С4Н10)/Р(СН4) selectivity for n-butane are significantly higher. It has been shown that the differences in the permeability coefficients are attributed to higher solubility coefficients of gases in the synthesized composites.
