Abstract:Novel composite membranes based on high-performance poly(ether imide sulfone) (XH-1015, EXTEM™ RESIN) were developed by incorporating 20–60 wt.% of hydrophobic protic ionic liquid, 2-butylaminoimidazolinium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide ([BAIm][TFSI]). Structure-properties relationships for the membrane were investigated by using EDS, FTIR, DSC, TGA, and sessile-drop water contact angle measurements. The interaction between the carbonyl group of the imide cycle and imidazolinium cations via hydrogen bondin… Show more
