Insufficient mechanical properties are one of the major obstacles for commercialization ultrahigh permeability thermally rearranged (TR) membranes in large-scale gas separation applications. The incorporation preformed benzoxazole/benzimidazole units into o-hydroxy copolyimide precursors, which themselves subsequently rearrange to form additional benzoxazole units, were prepared first time. Using commercially available monomers, mechanically tough from random and block TR...
