摘要：The incorporation of functionalized graphene oxide (GO) in mixed matrix membrane (MMM) is expected to greatly increase the permeability and selectivity for O2/N2 separation. In the present study,GO functionalized with 3- (Trimethoxysilyl) propyl methacrylate (TMOPMA) was used as inorganic filler and incorporated in to a PVC/pAMPS based MMM to increase the separation efficiency. Membranes of different compositions were synthesized and the best morphology was achieved with 0.5 g of PVC,1.0 g of pAMPS and 0.015 g of filler. The synthesized membrane and inorganic filler were characterized using SEM,EDS,FTIR,Raman and XRD spectroscopy. Moreover,the gas permeation studies were performed to check the separation factor of synthesized membrane for O2/N2. The maximum permeability achieved for O2 and N2 was 4097 and 3373 barrers,respectively at 5 bar pressure. For the selectivity,a gradual increasing trend was observed with the increase in permeability. The maximum selectivity achieved was 1.215 at 5 bar pressure. The results revealed an increasing trend in selectivity with the increase in permeability of gases across the membrane with the increase in feed gas pressure..
