Synthesis thin defect-free membranes

Synthesis of thin (<1 pm) defect-free and stable membranes... 

The approach for this program is the development of defect-free thin film zeolite membranes and new bulk microporous phases for the selective separation of light gases. The development of these membranes includes synthesis, modeling/ simulation, permeation studies and validation for separation and isolation of H2. The permeation of pure and mixed gases through membranes is studied at room temperature and 80°C. The modeling and... 

Zeolite membranes represent a new branch of inorganic membranes. Significant progress has been made so far in the synthesis of thin, high-flux, defect-free zeolite membranes with new techniques of preparation and modification. In fact, the hydrophilic LTA zeolite membranes have already been applied in industry for dehydration from organic solutions...
