Zeolitic imidazolate framework (ZIF-8) with a framework of 0.34 nm pore size which favours CO2 adsorption is used as filler in this work. Different loadings of ZIF-8 filler were incorporated into polysulfone (PSf) polymer matrix. From the EDX mapping, the morphology of the ZIF-8/PSf MMMs has shown compatibility between the polymer and filler phases. The MMMs demonstrated an increment of 8{\^A}oC in glass transition temperature, Tg compared to the pure PSf. Based on the permeation results, MMM loaded with 1 wt of ZIF-8 showed the highest performance with CO2 and CH4 permeability of 33.12 Barrer and 0.85 Barrer respectively, and CO2/CH4 ideal selectivity of 38.8. The development of this new type of MMM has great potential to be utilized in CO2/CH4 separation process. {\^A}{\copyright} Published under licence by IOP Publishing Ltd.}, url = {https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85081338797&doi=10.1088\%2f1757-899X\%2f736\%2f5\%2f052008&partnerID=40&md5=ed6a2e13d1175d0258089ab5c556a771} }
