The effect of ZIF-8 loading on the membrane performance of CO2 and CH4 separation was investigated. The excellent compatibility and good distribution of ZIF-8 nanofiller in 6FDA-durene polyimide phase even at higher ZIF-8 loading up to 20 wt has resulted in the increment of CO2 permeability and CO2/CH4 selectivity compared to pure membrane. In this work, 6FDA-durene loaded with 10 wt ZIF-8 demonstrated impressive CO2 permeability of 1426.75 Barrer with CO2/CH4 selectivity of 28.70, which successfully surpassed the Robeson 2008 upper bound. © 2016 The Authors. publisher: Elsevier Ltd date: 2016 type: Conference or Workshop Item type: PeerReviewed identifier: Jusoh, N. and Yeong, Y.F. and Lau, K.K. and Shariff, A.M.
