Abstract
Metal-organic frameworks (MOFs) have drawn intensive attention as a class of highly porous, crystalline materials with significant potential in various applications due to their tunable porosity, large internal surface areas, and high crystallinity. This paper comprehensively reviews the fabrication methods of pure MOF membranes and films, including in situ solvothermal synthesis, secondary growth, electrochemical deposition, counter diffusion growth, liquid phase epitaxy and solvent-free synthesis in the category of different MOF families with specific metal species, including Zn-based, Cu-based, Zr-based, Al-based, Ni-based, and Ti-based MOFs.

MEMBRANES 2023; 13:membranes13030287. [PMID: 36984674 PMCID: PMC10053294 DOI: 10.3390/membranes13030287] [Citation(s) in RCA: 1] [Impact Index Per Article: 1.0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 01/30/2023] [Revised: 02/23/2023] [Accepted: 02/24/2023] [Indexed: 05/31/2023]
Abstract
Thin-film composite mixed-matrix membranes (TFC-MMMs) have potential applications in practical gas separation processes because of their high permeance (gas flux) and gas selectivity. In this study, we fabricated a high-performance TFC-MMM based on a rubbery comb copolymer, i.e., poly(2-[3-(2H-benzotriazol-2-yl)-4-hydroxyphenyl] ethyl methacrylate)-co-poly(oxyethylene methacrylate) (PBE), and metal-organic framework MOF-808 nanoparticles. The rubbery copolymer penetrates through the pores of MOF-808, thereby tuning the pore size. In addition, the rubbery copolymer forms a defect-free interfacial morphology with polymer-infiltrated MOF-808 nanoparticles. Consequently, TFC-MMMs (thickness = 350 nm) can be successfully prepared even with a high loading of MOF-808. As polymer-infiltrated MOF is incorporated into the polymer matrix, the PBE/MOF-808 membrane exhibits a significantly higher CO2 permeance (1069 GPU) and CO2/N2 selectivity (52.7) than that of the pristine PBE membrane (CO2 permeance = 431 GPU and CO2/N2 selectivity = 36.2). Therefore, the approach considered in this study is suitable for fabricating high-performance thin-film composite membranes via polymer infiltration into MOF pores.
