Solution‐processable amorphous glassy polymers of intrinsic microporosity (PIMs) are promising microporous organic materials for membrane‐based gas and liquid separations due to their high surface area internal free volume, thermal chemical stability, excellent separation performance. This review provides an overview the most recent developments in design transport properties novel ladder PIM materials, polyimides (PIM–PIs), functionalized PIMs PIM–PIs, PIM‐derived thermally rearranged (TR),...
Ultra-thin composite carbon molecular sieve (CMS) membranes were fabricated on well-defined inorganic alumina substrates using a polymer of intrinsic microporosity (PIM) as precursor. Details the pyrolysis-related structural development elucidated focused-beam, interference-enhanced spectroscopic ellipsometry (both in UV–vis and IR range), which allowed accurate determination film thickness, optical properties well following chemical transformations. The pyrolysis-induced collapse thin bulk...
Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity Recent progress on polymers microporosity and their thermally-treated analogs for membranebased fluid separations are highlighted by Yingge Wang, Yu Han, Ingo Pinnau, coworkers in article number 2100049. Challenges opportunities identified these materials energy-intensive such as CO2/CH4, C2H4/C2H6 C3H6/C3H8 separations, well thin-film composite membranes containing intrinsic (PIM) motifs liquid applications.
