Enhancing the propylene/propane separation performances of ZIF-8 membranes by post-synthetic surface polymerization
Sunghwan Park, Kie Yong Cho, Hae‐Kwon Jeong
Abstract
The microstructural defects of ZIF-8 membranes were effectively sealed with sub-10 nm thick ultrathin PMMA layers by post-synthetic surface polymerization, significantly improving their C3H6/C3H8 separation performances and membrane reproducibility.
