Abstract
Chitosan/Pebax composite membranes were prepared with 1 : 1, 1 : 2, 1 : 10, 1 : 30 mass ratio of pebax and chitosan. Gas permeation test were carried out under pressure $6kgf/cm^2$, 35, $45^{\circ}C$ and $65^{\circ}C$ at different temperatures. The gas permeability and selectivity ($CO_2/N_2$) of $N_2$ and $CO_2$ for the Chitosan/Pebax composite membranes were investigated. As the amount of Pebax added to chitosan was increased the gas permeability of both $N_2$ and $CO_2$ increased. The selectivity ($CO_2/N_2$) was 6.9~44.3 in the Chitosan/Pebax composite membranes. With the increase of contents of Pebax and the decrease of temperature, the selectivity ($CO_2/N_2$) increased.
