In order to obtained high selective membrane for industrial applications (such as natural gas purification), mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) were developed based on polysulfone as matrix and MCM-41-type silica material (obtained from coal fly ash) as filler. As a consequence, various quantities of filler were used to determine the membranes efficiency on CO2/CH4 separation. The coal fly ash derived silica nanomaterial and the membranes were characterized in terms of thermal stability, homogeneity, and pore size distribution. There were observed similar properties of the obtained nanomaterial with a typical MCM-41 (obtained from commercial silicates), such as high surface area and pore size distribution. The permeability tests highlighted that the synthesized membranes can be applicable for CO2 removal from CH4, due to unnoticeable differences between real and ideal selectivity. Additionally, the membranes showed high resistance to CO2 plasticization, due to permeability decrease even at high feed pressure, up to 16 bar.

Physical properties of polymer foams depend on their macrostructure. In this paper, we study a range of polyuretane foams from the stereological point of view. Images of plane surfaces of studied samples were created by printing them on a sheet of paper and scanning these imprints. Consequent operations included reconstruction of pore section areas in the plane of printing and computation of pore volumes. The distribution of pore section was compared with data from computer tomography (CT) in order compare both methods.
