Basis of Permeability/Selectivity Tradeoff Relations in Polymeric Gas Separation Membranes
Abstract
Gas separation properties of polymer membrane materials follow distinct tradeoff relations: more permeable polymers are generally less selective and vice versa. Robeson 1 identified the best combinations of permeability and selectivity for important binary gas pairs (O 2 /N 2, CO 2 /CH 4, H 2 /N 2, etc.) and represented these permeability/selectivity combinations empirically as α A/B = β A/B, where P A and P B are the permeability coefficients of the more permeable and less permeable gases, respectively, α A/B is selectivity (= P A / P B ), and λ A/B and β A/B are empirical parameters. This report provides a fundamental theory for this observation. In the theory, λ A/B depends only on gas size. β A/B depends on λ A/B, gas condensability, and one adjustable parameter.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
