Membrane technology has gained recognition due to various advantages such as easy manufacture, low energy consumption, low operating costs, environmental safety, and facile application of functionalized nanomaterials. Extensive research has been conducted on polymers containing ether groups, such as poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), that undergo Lewis acid-base interactions, where the oxygen atoms of the ether group act as the Lewis base and CO2 acts as the Lewis acid. However, unmodified, neat PEO membranes have limited applicability as gas separation membranes due to the difficulty in controlling their high crystallinity. Our group synthesized various amphiphilic graft copolymers using a low-cost radical polymerization and applied to gas separation membranes. |
