Abstract
The effect of particles of porous aromatic frameworks, synthesized by the Friedel–Crafts reaction (PAF-FC), introduced into matrix of glassy polymer poly(1-trimethylsilyl-1-propine) (PTMSP), on the stabilization of the transport characteristics of composite membranes with a thin selective layer (2.0–2.2 Μm) was studied. As a comparison, samples of composite membranes with a selective layer based on PTMSP and PTMSP filled with PAF-11 particles synthesized by the Suzuki reaction are considered. All samples of composite membranes showed a decrease in the absolute values of gas permeability for all gases over time due to relaxation of the nonequilibrium free volume of PTMSP, therewith the greatest decrease is observed during the first thousand hours since membrane creation. The stabilization of the transport characteristics of composite membranes with PTMSP/PAF-FC occurs after 5000 h since membrane creation, further the carbon dioxide performance remains at the level of 8–9 m
