In order to improve flux of PTMSP/PDMS dense membrane, PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane with PEI support was prepared by phase inversion process and dip coating. These membranes were evaluated in terms of the removal of volatile organic compounds such as PCE, TCE, chloroform, 1,1,1-trichloroethane from wastewater by pervaporation. The selectivity and flux of PTMSP/PDMS dense membranes was in the range of 216.2 to 2394.4 and 244.3 to 428.2g/m2h, respectively. And pervaporation property of PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane was in the range of 215.5 to 2404.2 and 390.4 to 728.6g/m2h, respectively. PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane has remarkably greater flux than dense membranes with similar selectivity. It was possible for polymeric membranes used in this study to remove PCE selectively which is dissolved small quantity in water among other separable solutes. PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane showed the best performances among the silicone polymeric membranes, and has better durability and mechanical strength than dense membranes. PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane should be a useful candidate for the removal of volatile organic compounds dissolved in wastewater.

1. 서론 : 본 연구는 시간이 경과함에 따라 free volume감소로 나타나는 PTMSP[Poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne)] memebrane의 pysical aging을 늦추거나 방지할 목적으로 PTMSP polymer를 합성하여 여기에 hydroxy-terminated PDMS를 graft시켜 PTMSP/PDMS graft copolymer를 제조하였다. 용매증발법에 의해 PTMSP memebrane 및 PTMSP/PDMS graft copolymer memebrane을 제막한 후 PTMSP막의 물리적 노화를 관찰하기 위한 시점에서 조업시간에 따른 이들 막의 transport property을 살펴 보았다. 또한 이들 polymer을 사용하여 0.5 wt%의 희박 dope solution을 제조한 후 여기에 상전환법에 의해 제조된 비대칭 PEI(polyetherimide)지지막을 dip-doping시켜 PTMSP-PEI, PTMSP/PDMS-PEI 복합막을 제조하여 상기의 두 막과 투과증발 특성을 상호 비교하여 보았다. 그리고 객관적 비교 자료를 얻을 목적으로 PDMS막과 PDMS-PEI 복합막을 각각 제막하여 동일조건에서 실험을 수행하였다. 따라서 본 연구는 수중에 미량 용해된 chloroform, trichloroethylene, perchlororthylene, 1,1,1-trichloroethane 등의 유기염소계화합물 제거 실험을 통해 PTMSP, PTMSP/PDMS 등의 dense membrane과 asymmetric composite membrane 사이의 상관관계 및 이들 막들의 투과특성을 서로 비교, 분석하는데 목적을 두었다.

Polymer membranes such as poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propyne)-polyetherimide (PTMSP-PEI) and poly(dimethylsiloxane)- polyetherimide (PDMS-PEI) composite membrane were prepared by solution casting method. To investigate the characteristics of these membranes, the analytical methods such as FT-IR, $^1H-NMR,$ DSC, TGA, GPC, and SEM have been utilized. The number-average (equation omitted) and weight-average (equation omitted) molecular weight of PTMSP were 477,920 and 673,329 respectively. The glass transition temperature ($T_g$) of PTMSP was $224^{\circ}C.$ The separation of the gas mixture ($H_2/N_2$) through the composite membranes were studied as a function of pressure. The separation factor (${\alpha}, {\beta},$ quation omitted) of the composite membranes used in this work increased as the pressure of permeation cell increased. The real separation factor (${\alpha}$), head separation factor (${\beta}$), and tail separation factor (equation omitted) of PTMSP-PEI composite membrane were 2.28, 1.17, and 1.96 respectively at ${\Delta}P$ 30psi and $25^{\circ}C.$ (${\alpha}, {\beta}$ and equation omitted of PDMS-PEI composite membrane were 3.70, 1.53, and 2.42 respectively at ${\Delta}P$ 30psi and $25^{\circ}C$.

In this study, PTMSP of high permeability and high molecular weight was synthesized, and PTMSP-PDMS graft copolymer was synthesized from poly [1-(trimethylsily)propyne] (PTMSP) and hydroxy-terminated poly(dimethylsiloxane) (PDMS). The PTMSP-PDMS-silica composites were prepared by the addition of 15, 30, or 50 wt% tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) to PTMSP-PDMS graft copolymer by sol-gel process. To investigate the physico-chemical characteristics of PTMSP-PDMS-silica/PEI composite membranes, the analytical methods such as $^1H$-NMR, FT-IR, TGA, XPS, GPC, and SEM have been utilized. The gas permeability and selectivity properties of $H_2,\;O_2,\;N_2,\;CO_2,\;CH_4,\;n-C_4H_{10}$, were evaluated. Permeability of the composite membranes increased as TEOS content and pressure increased. Selectivity of $H_2,\;O_2,\;N_2,\;CO_2,\;CH_4,\;and\;n-C_4H_{10}$, showed the maximum value at 30 wt% of TEOS content and decreased thereafter.

PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane was prepared by solution casting method. To investigate the characteristics of this membrane, the analytical methods such as FT-IR, $^1$H-NMR, DSC, TGA, GPC, and SEM have been utilized. The number-average((equation omitted)) and weight-average((equation omitted)) molecular weight of PTMSP/PDMS copolymer were 501,516 and 675,560 respectively. The separation of the gas mixture($H_2$/$N_2$) through the composite membrane was studied as a function of pressure. The separation factor($\alpha$, $\beta$, (equation omitted)) of the composite membrane used in this work increased as the pressure of permeation cell increased. The real separation factor($\alpha$), head separation factor($\beta$), and tail separation factor ((equation omitted)) of PTMSP/PDMS-PEI composite membrane were 21.50, 49.14 and 1.84 respectively at $\Delta$P 345.55 kPa and $25^{\circ}C$.

The development of the gas separation processes using polymeric membranes has attracted a great deal of interest during the last two decades. Membrane in this application has to offer an excellent thermal stability, chemical/solvent resistance, and mechanical strength under operating conditions.(omitted)
