Membrane materials for gas and vapor separation : synthesis and application of silicon-containing polymers

Si containing polymers have been instrumental in the development of membrane gas separation practices since the early 1970s. Their function is to provide a selective barrier for different molecular species, where selection takes place either on the basis of size or on the basis of physical interactions or both. Combines membrane science, organosilicon chemistry, polymer science, materials science, and physical chemistry Only book to consider polymerization chemistry and synthesis of Si-containing polymers (both glassy and rubbery), and their role as membrane materials Membrane operations present environmental benefits such as reduced waste, and recovered/recycled valuable raw materials that are currently lost to fuel or to flares Permeability Of Polymers / Yuri Yampolskii -- Organosiloxanes (silicones), Polyorganosiloxane Block Copolymers / Igor Raygorodsky, Victor Kopylov, Alexander Kovyazin -- Polysilalkylenes / Nikolay V Ushakov, Stepan Guselnikov, Eugene Finkelshtein -- Polyvinylorganosilanes / Nikolay V Ushakov -- Substituted Polyacetylenes / Toshikazu Sakaguchi, Yanming Hu, Toshio Masuda -- Polynorbornenes / Eugene Finkelshtein, Maria Gringolts, Maksim Bermeshev, Pavel Chapala, Yulia Rogan -- Polycondensation Materials Containing Bulky Side Groups / Susanta Banerjee, Debaditya Bera -- Gas And Vapor Transport Properties Of Si-containing And Related Polymers / Yuri Yampolskii -- Modeling Of Si-containing Polymers / Joel R Fried, Timothy Dubbs, Morteza Azizi -- Pervaporation And Evapomeation With Si-containing Polymers / Tadashi Uragami -- Si-containing Polymers In Membrane Gas Separation / Adele Brunetti, Leonardo Melone, Enrico Drioli, Giuseppe Barbieri.
