The research aimed to develop chemically modified PIM-1s for use in adsorption and gas separation processes. In particular, the nitrile group in PIM-1 was converted to several different functional groups to manipulate the interaction ability of PIM-1 with different species. Synt…
This work explores the fabrication and permeability testing of mixed matrix membranes (MMM) utilising a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) and various fillers. PIM-1 has been chosen for this work due to its high apparent surface area and high sorption of gases. PIM-1 als…
Silicon carbide (SiC) microporous membranes were prepared by the pyrolysis of thin allyl-hydridopolycarbosilane (AHPCS) films coated, using a combination of slip-casting and dip-coating techniques, on tubular SiC macroporous supports. Combining slip-casting with dip-coating sign…
