Abstract
Boosting the transport and selectivity properties of membranes based on polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) toward one specific working analyte of interest is challenging. In this work, a novel family of PIM membranes, prepared by casting and exhibiting optima mechanical properties and high thermal stability, was synthesized from 4,4'-(2,2,2-trifluoro-1-phenylethane-1,1-diyl) bis(benzene-1,2-diol) and two tetrafluoro-nitrile derivatives. Gas permeability measurements evidenced a CO2/CH4 selectivity up to 170% relative to the reference polymer, PIM-1, in agreement with their calculated fractional free volume and the analysis of the textural properties by N2 and CO2 gas adsorption. Besides, the chemical modification by acid hydrolysis of the PIM membranes favored the permeability for lithium ions (LiCl 2M, 6 × 10-9 cm2·s-1) compared to other alkali metal analogs such as sodium (NaCl 2M, 7.38 × 10-10 cm2·s-1) and potassium (KCl 2M, 1.05 × 10-9 cm2·s-1). Moreover, the complete mitigation of the crossover of redox species with higher molecular sizes than the ions from alkali metal salts was confirmed by using in-line benchtop NMR methods. Additionally, the modified PIM membranes were measured in a symmetric electrochemical flow cell using an aqueous electrolyte by combining lithium ferro/ferricyanide redox compounds and lithium chloride. The electrochemical tests showed low polarization, high-rate capability, and capacity retention values of 99% when cycled at 10 mA·cm-2 for over 50 cycles. Based on these results, these polymers could be used as highly selective and conducting membranes in electrodialysis for lithium separation and lithium-based redox flow batteries and as a protective layer in high-energy density lithium metal batteries.

Abstract
This article provides a comprehensive review of the state-of-the-art technology of polymeric mixed-matrix membranes for CO2/CH4 separation that can be applied in medium, small, and domestic biogas systems operating at low pressures (0.2-6 kPa). Critical data from the latest publications of CO2/CH4 separation membranes were analyzed, considering the ratio of CO2/CH4 permeabilities, the CO2 selectivity, the operating pressures at which the membranes were tested, the chemistry of the polymers studied and their gas separation mechanisms. And the different nanomaterials as fillers. The intrinsic microporous polymers (PIMs) were identified as potential candidates for biomethane purification due to their high permeability and selectivity, which are compatible with operation pressures below 1 bar, and as low as 0.2 bar. This scenario contrasts with other polymers that require pressures above 1 bar for operation, with some reaching 20 bar. Furthermore, the combination of PIM with GO in MMMs was found to not influence the permeability significantly, but to contribute to the membrane stability over time, by preventing the structural collapse of the membrane caused by aging. The systematic analysis here presented is a valuable resource for defining the future technological development of CO2/CH4 separation membranes for biogas biorefining.

Abstract
Direct air capture (DAC) is an emerging negative CO2 emission technology that aims to introduce a feasible method for CO2 capture from the atmosphere. Unlike carbon capture from point sources, which deals with flue gas at high CO2 concentrations, carbon capture directly from the atmosphere has proved difficult due to the low CO2 concentration in ambient air. Current DAC technologies mainly consider sorbent-based systems; however, membrane technology can be considered a promising DAC approach since it provides several advantages, e.g., lower energy and operational costs, less environmental footprint, and more potential for small-scale ubiquitous installations. Several recent advancements in validating the feasibility of highly permeable gas separation membrane fabrication and system design show that membrane-based direct air capture (m-DAC) could be a complementary approach to sorbent-based DAC, e.g., as part of a hybrid system design that incorporates other DAC technologies (e.g., solvent or sorbent-based DAC). In this article, the ongoing research and DAC application attempts via membrane separation have been reviewed. The reported membrane materials that could potentially be used for m-DAC are summarized. In addition, the future direction of m-DAC development is discussed, which could provide perspective and encourage new researchers' further work in the field of m-DAC.

Abstract
Spin crossover (SCO) complexes can reversibly switch between low spin (LS) and high spin (HS) states, affording possible applications in sensing, displays, and molecular electronics. Dinuclear SCO complexes with access to [LS-LS], [LS-HS], and [HS-HS] states may offer increased levels of functionality. The nature of the SCO interconversion in dinuclear complexes is influenced by the local electronic environment. We report the synthesis and characterization of [{FeIII(tpa)}2spiro](PF6)2 (1), [{FeIII(tpa)}2Br4spiro](PF6)2 (2), and [{FeIII(tpa)}2thea](PF6)2 (3) (tpa = tris(2-pyridylmethyl)amine, spiroH4 = 3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl-1,1'-spirobi(indan)-5,5',6,6'-tetraol, Br4spiroH4 = 3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl-1,1'-spirobi(indan)-4,4',7,7'-tetrabromo-5,5',6,6'-tetraol, theaH4 = 2,3,6,7-tetrahydroxy-9,10-dimethyl-9,10-dihydro-9,10-ethanoanthracene), utilizing non-conjugated bis(catecholate) bridging ligands. In the solid state, magnetic and structural analysis shows that 1 remains in the [HS-HS] state, while 2 and 3 undergo a partial SCO interconversion upon cooling from room temperature involving the mixed [LS-HS] state. In solution, all complexes undergo SCO from [HS-HS] at room temperature, via [LS-HS] to mixtures including [LS-LS] at 77 K, with the extent of SCO increasing in the order 1 < 2 < 3. Gas phase density functional theory calculations suggest a [LS-LS] ground state for all complexes, with the [LS-HS] and [HS-HS] states successively destabilized. The relative energy separations indicate that ligand field strength increases following spiro4- < Br4spiro4- < thea4-, consistent with solid-state magnetic and EPR behavior. All three complexes show stabilization of the [LS-HS] state in relation to the midpoint energy between [LS-LS] and [HS-HS]. The relative stability of the [LS-HS] state increases with increasing ligand field strength of the bis(catecholate) bridging ligand in the order 1 < 2 < 3. The bromo substituents of Br4spiro4- increase the ligand field strength relative to spiro4-, while the stronger ligand field provided by thea4- arises from extension of the overlapping π-orbital system across the two catecholate units. This study highlights how SCO behavior in dinuclear complexes can be modulated by the bridging ligand, providing useful insights for the design of molecules that can be interconverted between more than two states.

Abstract
The development of polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) over the last two decades has established them as a distinct class of microporous materials, which combine the attributes of microporous solid materials and the soluble nature of glassy polymers. Due to their solubility in common organic solvents, PIMs are easily processable materials that potentially find application in membrane-based separation, catalysis, ion separation in electrochemical energy storage devices, sensing, etc. Dibenzodioxin linkage, Tröger's base, and imide bond-forming reactions have widely been utilized for synthesis of a large number of PIMs. Among these linkages, however, most of the studies have been based on dibenzodioxin-based PIMs. Therefore, this review focuses precisely on dibenzodioxin linkage chemistry. Herein, the design principles of different rigid and contorted monomer scaffolds are discussed, as well as synthetic strategies of the polymers through dibenzodioxin-forming reactions including copolymerization and postsynthetic modifications, their characteristic properties and potential applications studied so far. Towards the end, the prospects of these materials are examined with respect to their utility in industrial purposes. Further, the structure-property correlation of dibenzodioxin PIMs is analyzed, which is essential for tailored synthesis and tunable properties of these PIMs and their molecular level engineering for enhanced performances making these materials suitable for commercial usage.

Cost Profile of Membranes That Use Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIMs). MEMBRANES 2022; 12:membranes12040433.

Abstract
Assessing the financial impact of polymers of intrinsic microporosity, otherwise known as PIMs, at the lab scale has been impeded by the absence of a holistic approach that would envelop all related financial parameters, and most importantly any indirect costs, such as laboratory accidents that have been consistently neglected and undervalued in past assessments. To quantify the cost of PIMs in relation to the risks befalling a laboratory, an innovative cost evaluation approach was designed. This approach consists of three stages. Firstly, a two-fold “window of opportunity” (WO) theory is suggested, dividing the total cost profile into two segments, followed up by a qualitative risk analysis to establish the potential cost components. The last stage builds on a total cost of ownership model, incorporating the two types of WO. The total cost of ownership (TCO) approach was selected to ascertain the costs and construct the cost profile of PIMs, according to laboratory experimental data. This model was applied to the synthesis and physicochemical characterization processes. The quantitative analysis revealed that the most influential parameters for synthesis are accidents and energy costs. This is in contrast with the physicochemical characterization process, where the most important determinant is the energy cost.

Abstract
To improve the rigidity of spirobisindane, it was intramolecularly locked by forming eight-membered rings via sulfur and phosphorus atoms to produce an interlocked polycyclic structure under mild conditions in good yields. By carefully analyzing the crystal structures, we noticed that the angle between the two benzene rings in the locked version is significantly smaller than that of the typical spirobisindane structure. Molecular modeling indicated that locking the spiro center can remarkably enhance the rigidity.

Abstract
In the present work, a set of anthracene maleimide monomers with different aliphatic side groups obtained by Diels Alder reactions were used as precursors for a series of polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) based homo- and copolymers that were successfully synthesized and characterized. Polymers with different sizes and shapes of aliphatic side groups were characterized by size-exclusion chromatography (SEC), (nuclear magnetic resonance) 1H-NMR, thermogravimetric (TG) analysis coupled with Fourier-Transform-Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy (TG-FTIR) and density measurements. The TG-FTIR measurement of the monomer-containing methyl side group revealed that the maleimide group decomposes prior to the anthracene backbone. Thermal treatment of homopolymer methyl-100 thick film was conducted to establish retro-Diels Alder rearrangement of the homopolymer. Gas and water vapor transport properties of homopolymers and copolymers were investigated by time-lag measurements. Homopolymers with bulky side groups (i-propyl-100 and t-butyl-100) experienced a strong impact of these side groups in fractional free volume (FFV) and penetrant permeability, compared to the homopolymers with linear alkyl side chains. The effect of anthracene maleimide derivatives with a variety of aliphatic side groups on water vapor transport is discussed. The maleimide moiety increased the water affinity of the homopolymers. Phenyl-100 exhibited a high water solubility, which is related to a higher amount of aromatic rings in the polymer. Copolymers (methyl-50 and t-butyl-50) showed higher CO2 and CH4 permeability compared to PIM-1. In summary, the introduction of bulky substituents increased free volume and permeability whilst the maleimide moiety enhanced the water vapor affinity of the polymers.

Abstract
Polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) are promising materials for gas adsorption because of their high surface area, processability, and tailorable backbone. Specifically, nitrile groups on the backbone of PIM-1, an archetypal PIM, can be converted to other functional groups to selectively capture targeted gas molecules. Despite these appealing features of PIMs, their potential has mainly only been realized for the separation of nontoxic gases. Here, we prepared PIM-1 materials modified with carboxylic acid and amidoxime functional groups and investigated their performance as adsorbents for the capture of ammonia (NH3) and sulfur dioxide (SO2) gases. After determining the Brønsted acidity or basicity of the PIMs from potentiometric acid-base titrations, which can be correlated with affinity for acidic or basic toxic gases, we explored the uptake capacity toward NH3 and SO2, respectively. Gas sorption studies revealed that the carboxylated PIM showed higher affinity toward NH3 through the incorporation of Brønsted acid sites, while the amidoxime functionalized PIM exhibited affinity toward SO2 through the installed of slightly basic functional groups. Overall, this study highlights new insight into PIMs as solid sorbent materials for capturing toxic gases, which can be transferred to their potential use in practical applications, such as personal protective equipment or air filtration.

Abstract
The synthesis of polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) modified with azide groups, the cross linkage by nitrene reaction and their performance as gas separation membranes are reported. The azide modification of the spirobisindane units in the polymer backbone was done by post functionalization of methylated spirobisindane containing polymers. These polymers differ in distribution and concentration of the azide group containing spirobisindane units by applying perfectly alternating and randomly distributed copolymers along the polymer chains. To investigate the influence of concentration of the azide groups, additionally the homopolymer of methylated spirobisindane was synthesized and subjected to identical treatments and characterizations as both copolymers. Cross linkage by nitrene reaction was examined by different temperature treatments at 150, 200, 250 and 300 °C. Characterization of the new polymers was performed by NMR, SEC and FT-IR. Furthermore, the crosslinking process was investigated by means of solid state NMR, TGA-FTIR, DSC and isoconversional kinetic analysis performed with TGA. Gas permeability of CO2, N2, CH4, H2 and O2 was determined by time lag experiments and ideal selectivities for several gas pairs were calculated. The two azide groups per repeating unit degrade during thermal treatments by release of nitrogen and form mechanically stable PIM networks, leading to an increase in gas permeability while selectivity remained nearly constant. Measured diffusivity and solubility coefficients revealed differences in the formation of free volume elements depending on distribution and concentration of the azide groups. Aging studies over about five months were performed and physical aging rates (βP) were evaluated with regard to the concentration and distribution of curable azide functionalities. Subsequently, the enhanced sieving effect during aging resulted in membrane materials that surpassed the Robeson upper bound in selected gas pairs.

Characteristics of Gas Permeation Behaviour in Multilayer Thin Film Composite Membranes for CO₂ Separation. MEMBRANES 2019; 9:membranes9020022.

Abstract
Porous, porous/gutter layer and porous/gutter layer/selective layer types of membranes were investigated for their gas transport properties in order to derive an improved description of the transport performance of thin film composite membranes (TFCM). A model describing the individual contributions of the different layers’ mass transfer resistances was developed. The proposed method allows for the prediction of permeation behaviour with standard deviations (SD) up to 10%. The porous support structures were described using the Dusty Gas Model (based on the Maxwell–Stefan multicomponent mass transfer approach) whilst the permeation in the dense gutter and separation layers was described by applicable models such as the Free-Volume model, using parameters derived from single gas time lag measurements. The model also accounts for the thermal expansion of the dense layers at pressure differences below 100 kPa. Using the model, the thickness of a silicone-based gutter layer was calculated from permeation measurements. The resulting value differed by a maximum of 30 nm to the thickness determined by scanning electron microscopy.

Abstract
This work reports on the preparation and gas transport performance of mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) based on the polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM-1) and potassium dodecahydrododecaborate (K2B12H12) as inorganic particles (IPs). The effect of IP loading on the gas separation performance of these MMMs was investigated by varying the IP content (2.5, 5, 10 and 20 wt %) in a PIM-1 polymer matrix. The derived MMMs were characterized by scanning electron microscopy (SEM), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), single gas permeation tests and sorption measurement. The PIM1/K2B12H12 MMMs show good dispersion of the IPs (from 2.5 to 10 wt %) in the polymer matrix. The gas permeability of PIM1/K2B12H12 MMMs increases as the loading of IPs increases (up to 10 wt %) without sacrificing permselectivity. The sorption isotherm in PIM-1 and PIM1/K2B12H12 MMMs demonstrate typical dual-mode sorption behaviors for the gases CO2 and CH4.

Abstract
Membrane materials with excellent selectivity and high permeability are crucial to efficient membrane gas separation. Microporous organic materials have evolved as an alternative candidate for fabricating membranes due to their inherent attributes, such as permanent porosity, high surface area, and good processability. Herein, a unique pore-chemistry concept for the designed synthesis of microporous organic membranes, with an emphasis on the relationship between pore structures and membrane performances, is introduced. The latest advances in microporous organic materials for potential membrane application in gas separation of H2 , CO2 , O2 , and other industrially relevant gases are summarized. Representative examples of the recent progress in highly selective and permeable membranes are highlighted with some fundamental analyses from pore characteristics, followed by a brief perspective on future research directions.

Abstract
Until now, the leading polymer of intrinsic microporosity PIM-1 has become quite famous for its high membrane permeability for many gases in gas separation, linked, however, to a rather moderate selectivity. The combination with the hydrophilic and low permeable poly(ethylene glycol) (PEG) and poly(ethylene oxides) (PEO) should on the one hand reduce permeability, while on the other hand enhance selectivity, especially for the polar gas CO2 by improving the hydrophilicity of the membranes. Four different paths to combine PIM-1 with PEG or poly(ethylene oxide) and poly(propylene oxide) (PPO) were studied: physically blending, quenching of polycondensation, synthesis of multiblock copolymers and synthesis of copolymers with PEO/PPO side chain. Blends and new, chemically linked polymers were successfully formed into free standing dense membranes and measured in single gas permeation of N2, O2, CO2 and CH4 by time lag method. As expected, permeability was lowered by any substantial addition of PEG/PEO/PPO regardless the manufacturing process and proportionally to the added amount. About 6 to 7 wt % of PEG/PEO/PPO added to PIM-1 halved permeability compared to PIM-1 membrane prepared under similar conditions. Consequently, selectivity from single gas measurements increased up to values of about 30 for CO2/N2 gas pair, a maximum of 18 for CO2/CH4 and 3.5 for O2/N2.

Abstract
This Concept examines strategies to design advanced polymers with high CO2 permeability and high CO2 /N2 selectivity, which are the key to the success of membrane technology for CO2 capture from fossil fuel-fired power plants. Specifically, polymers with enhanced CO2 solubility and thus CO2 /N2 selectivity are designed by incorporating CO2 -philic groups in polymers such as poly(ethylene oxide)-containing polymers and poly(ionic liquids); polymers with enhanced CO2 diffusivity and thus CO2 permeability are designed with contorted rigid polymer chains to obtain high free volume, such as polymers with intrinsic microporosity and thermally rearranged polymers. The underlying rationales for materials design are discussed and polymers with promising CO2 /N2 separation properties for CO2 capture from flue gas are highlighted.

Abstract
Efficient reactions between fluorine-functionalised biphenyl and terphenyl derivatives with catechol-functionalised terminal groups provide a route to large, discrete organic molecules of intrinsic microporosity (OMIMs) that provide porous solids solely by their inefficient packing. By altering the size and substituent bulk of the terminal groups, a number of soluble compounds with apparent BET surface areas in excess of 600 m(2) g(-1) are produced. The efficiency of OMIM structural units for generating microporosity is in the order: propellane>triptycene>hexaphenylbenzene>spirobifluorene>naphthyl=phenyl. The introduction of bulky hydrocarbon substituents significantly enhances microporosity by further reducing packing efficiency. These results are consistent with findings from previously reported packing simulation studies. The introduction of methyl groups at the bridgehead position of triptycene units reduces intrinsic microporosity. This is presumably due to their internal position within the OMIM structure so that they occupy space, but unlike peripheral substituents they do not contribute to the generation of free volume by inefficient packing.

Abstract
A novel polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) was prepared from a diaminobenzotriptycene monomer using a polymerization reaction based on Tröger's base formation. The polymer (PIM-BTrip-TB) demonstrated an apparent Brunauer, Emmet, and Teller (BET) surface area of 870 m2 g-1, good solubility in chloroform, excellent molecular mass, high inherent viscosity and provided robust thin films for gas permeability measurements. The polymer is highly permeable (e.g., PH2 = 9980; PO2 = 3290 Barrer) with moderate selectivity (e.g., PH2/PN2 = 11.0; PO2/PN2 = 3.6) so that its data lie over the 2008 Robeson upper bounds for the H2/N2, O2/N2, and H2/CH4 gas pairs and on the upper bound for CO2/CH4. On aging, the polymer demonstrates a drop in permeability, which is typical for ultrapermeable polymers, but with a significant increase in gas selectivities (e.g., PO2 = 1170 Barrer; PO2/PN2 = 5.4).

Abstract
High free-volume copolymers were prepared via polycondensation with 2,3,5,6,-tetrafluoroterephthalonitrile (TFTPN) in which a portion of the 3,3,3',3'-tetramethyl-1,1'-spirobisindane (TTSBI) of PIM-1 was replaced with dibutyl anthracene maleimide (4bIII). An investigation of free volume using positron annihilation lifetime spectroscopy (PALS), and gas permeation measurements was carried out for the thin film composite copolymer membranes and compared to PIM-1. The average free volume hole size and the gas permeance of the copolymer membranes increased with decreasing TTSBI content in the copolymer.

Abstract
A novel generic method is reported for the synthesis of a spirobifluorene-based dianhydride (SBFDA). An intrinsically microporous polyimide was obtained by polycondensation reaction with 3,3'-dimethylnaphthidine (DMN). The corresponding polymer (SBFDA-DMN) exhibited good solubility, excellent thermal stability, as well as significant microporosity with high BET surface area of 686 m2/g. The O2 permeability of a methanol-treated and air-dried membrane was 1193 Barrer with a moderate O2/N2 selectivity of 3.2. The post-treatment history and aging conditions had great effects on the membrane performance. A significant drop in permeability coupled with an increase in selectivity was observed after long-term aging. After storage of 200 days, the gas separation properties of SBFDA-DMN were located slightly above the latest Robeson upper bounds for several gas pairs such as O2/N2 and H2/N2.
