Abstract
In this work, the membranes based on crystallizable poly(hexadecy-l-methyl-siloxane) (PHDMS) were obtained and their gas transport properties in relation to a number of light hydrocarbons were investigated with a focus on n-butane and methane permeability and selectivity. A first-order phase transition (crystallization of side alkyl chains) with a melting temperature (Tm) of 26°C was detected for the PHDMS-membranes. It was shown that the membrane transport properties were significantly influenced by their phase state. The gas permeability, diffusivity and solubility undergone a sudden change in the vicinity of Tm. Thus, a decrease in temperature from 30° to 20°C leads to a decrease in the hydrocarbons permeability coefficients by an order of magnitude. On one hand, the membranes n-butane/methane selectivity at a temperature T > Tm did not exceed 25, which is comparable with the results for previously studied polyalkylmethylsiloxanes with shorter alkyl chains. On the other, the n-butane/methane selectivity of semicrystalline membranes (T < Tm), despite a noticeable reduction in gas permeability, can reach selectivity values of ~150.
