High-performance composite hollow fiber membrane for flue gas and air separations
Abstract(#br)A defect-free membrane with a very high gas permeance is greatly attractive to both academia and industry. Thin film composite (TFC) membranes are promising candidates. However, it is always challenging to have a reproducible and up-scalable method to fulfill the needs. Herein, we report a novel and straightforward strategy to fabricate a high-performance hollow fiber composite membrane using a crosslinked polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) with a high inherent viscosity obtained from a novel post-crosslinking method.
