Abstract

Abstract Amine-modified polyimide membranes were prepared by immersing methyl-brominated polyimide membranes into aqueous amine solutions. They displayed high performance for CO2/N2 separation especially in the presence of water vapor; for example, permeability to CO2 of 36 Barrer and separation factor of 81 at 2 atm, 298 K and relative humidity of 75%.
