| description |
Ceramic membranes, also described as permselective barrier or fine sieve, consist of
several layers of one or more different ceramic materials. The support layer is first
prepared followed by the intermediate layers that act as a bridge due to the pore size
differences between the support layer and top layer, and lastly the top layer where the
separation process occur. The commonly used materials for the support and
intermediate layers is aluminium oxides, Al2O3 where the more specific term used to
describe each layer due to its pore size difference are α-alumina and ϒ-alumina,
respectively. While, the microporous silica layer is the top layer.
Based on the literature review, sol-gel modification method is preferable to prepare
the silica membranes because it provides good selectivity and permeability. To carry
out the sol-gel modification, dip-coating method is used. For this project,
tetraethoxysilane (TEOS) is used as the inorganic silica precursor. However it is
found that the silica membranes suffer from hydrothermally unstable that is due to its
hydrophilic nature. Hence, the objective of this project is to improve the silica
membranes using an organic template vinyltriethoxysilane (VTES or also known as
TVES) which is also used to control the pore size of the microporous silica
membrane.
The research methodology of this project consists of preparation of the standard and
modified silica membranes and followed by characterization of the membranes
prepared. The characterization is important to see the difference between the
standard and modified silica membranes which the modified silica membrane is
expected to have a higher pore volume and narrower pore size distribution. Thus,
with this result modification of the silica membrane is expected to give better
selectivity and permeability towards separating the hydrogen gas. |
