The transport phenomena of oxygen and nitrogen across a pure polycarbonate (PC) and a cobalt(III) acetylactonate (Co(acac)(3)) containing PC membrane was studied. Co(acac)(3) was added into a polycarbonate membrane to enhance its oxygen solubility. The oxygen sorption isotherms was measured. It was found that the oxygen solubility decreased sharply as pressure increased, especially at low pressure region. On the contrary, the oxygen permeability increased slightly with respect to pressure. Both the solution-diffusion model and traditional dual mobility model were unable to explain the inconsistent pressure dependency between solubility and permeability. Instead of adopting Langmuir-Henry sorption model, a modified dual mobility model which incorporates BET-type isotherm to describe oxygen sorption. The diffusivity of molecules moving at the first adsorbed layer was assumed to be different from those moving at higher layers. This modified dual mobility model satisfactorily described both the pressure dependency of oxygen solubility and permeability. It was also found that the increase of oxygen/nitrogen selectivity was not due to the elevation of oxygen to nitrogen solubility ratio but due to the mobility ratio of oxygen to nitrogen at the higher adsorption layers.
