Provided herein are metal organic framework/polymer mixed-matrix hollow fiber membranes and metal organic framework/carbon molecular sieve mixed-matrix hollow fiber membranes. The materials have high MOF particle loading and are easily scalable. The MOF/polymer mixed-matrix hollow fibers are formed using a dry-jet/wet-quench fiber spinning technique and show CH/CHselectivity that is significantly enhanced over the pure polymer fiber and that is consistent with the selectivity of mixed-matrix dense films of the same MOF/polymer combination. The MOF/CMS mixed-matrix hollow fibers are formed by pyrolyzing the MOF/polymer mixed-matrix hollow fibers and show increased CHpermeance and increased selectivity over the MOF/polymer mixed-matrix hollow fiber membranes.
Ultra-Selective Carbon Molecular Sieve Membranes And Methods Of Making
Embodiments of the present disclosure are directed to a process for making a carbon molecular sieve membrane having a desired permselectivity between a first gas species and a second gas species, in which the second gas species has a larger kinetic diameter than the first gas species. The process comprises providing a polymer precursor and pyrolyzing the polymer precursor at a pyrolysis temperature that is effective to selectively reduce the sorption coefficient of the second gas species, thereby increasing the permselectivity of the resulting carbon molecular sieve membrane.
