ABSTRACTHigh performance polyimides have been widely investigated as materials with excellent thermal, mechanical, and electronic properties due to their highly rigid structures. Aspen has developed an approach to prepare polyimide aerogels which have applications as low dielectric constant materials, separation membranes, catalyst supports and insulation materials. In this paper, we will discuss the preparation of polyimide-silica hybrid aerogel materials with good mechanical strengths and low thermal conductivities. The polyimide-silica hybrid aerogels were made by a two-step process and the materials were characterized to determine thermal conductivity and compressive strength. Results show that compressive moduli of the polyimide-silica hybrid aerogels increase dramatically with density (power law relationship). Thermal conductivity of the aerogels is dependent on the aging conditions and density, with the lowest value achieved so far being ~12 mW/m-K at ambient conditions. The relationship between aerogel density and surface area, thermal stability, porosity and morphology of the nanostructure of the polyimide-silica hybrid aerogels are also described in this paper.

The systematic investigation of the aggregation behaviours of newly synthesised surface-active ionic liquids 1-alkyl-3-methylimidazolium bis(2-ethylhexyl)sulfosuccinate ([Cnmim][AOT], n = 2, 3, 5, 6, 7) by various techniques is reported. The critical aggregation concentrations (CACs) and the standard Gibbs free energies of aggregation () were determined from measurements on conductivity, fluorescence, and surface tension, which suggested a stronger self-assembly ability in the bulk solution for [Cnmim][AOT] surfactants with longer alkyl chain cations. An interesting structure transition driven by the penetration of the imidazolium cation into the aggregate when n > 4 was found by analysis of the variations of the values of CAC, , the degree of counter ion binding (β), and the micropolarity (I1/I3) immediately after the CAC with changing alkyl chain length of the imidazolium cation, which was further confirmed by 1H NMR measurements.

Abstract Cellular membranes provide ideal archetypes for molecule or ion separations with sub-angstrom scale precision, which are featured with both extremely high permeability and selectivity due to the well-defined membrane protein channels. However, the development of bioinspired membranes with artificial channels for sub-angstrom scale ethylene/ethane (0.416 nm / 0.443 nm) separation remains an uncharted territory and a significant challenge. Herein, a bioinspired nano-ordered liquid membrane is constructed by a facile ion/molecule self-assembly strategy for highly efficient ethylene/ethane separation, which mimics the structure of cellular membrane elegantly and possesses plenty of three-dimensional (3D) nanochannels. The elaborate regulation of non-covalent interactions by optimizing the ion/molecule compositions within membrane confers the nano-ordered liquid structure with interpenetrating and bi-continuous apolar domains and polar domains, which results in the formation of regular carrier wires and enormous 3D interconnected ethylene transport nanochannels. By virtue of these 3D nanochannels, the bioinspired nano-ordered liquid membrane manifests simultaneously super-high selectivity, excellent permeance and long-term stability, which exceeds previously reported ethylene/ethane separation membranes. This methodology in this work for construction of bioinspired membrane with tunable 3D nanochannels through ion/molecule self-assembly will enlighten the design and development of high-performance separation membranes for angstrom/sub-angstrom scale ion or molecule separations.
