Abstract:Epoxy nanofiltration membranes were synthesized using a diamine and a diepoxide in a one-pot step polymerization. These membranes were stable in organic solvents and used for chemical separations in dichloromethane. The epoxy membranes showed excellent selectivities in chemical separations of over 100:1. The selectivity of the membrane was optimized by adding in a triepoxide to the polymerization to increase the cross-link density. Optimization of the membranes increased the selectivity up to 250:1 for select … Show more
