The efficient separation of gases has industrial, economic, and environmental importance. Here, we report the improvement in gas separation performance of a polyimide-based matrix (Matrimid®5218) filled with a Cu-based metal organic framework [MOF, Cu3(BTC)2] with two different ionic liquids (ILs) confined within the pores. The chosen ILs are commonly used in gas solubilization, 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate ([EMIM][BF4]) and 1-Ethyl-3-methylimidazolium trifluoromethanesulfonate ([EMIM][OTf]), and the incorporation of the [EMIM][BF4]@Cu-BTC and [EMIM][OTf]@Cu-BTC composites in Matrimid®5218 proved to be an efficient strategy to improve the permeability and selectivity toward CO2/N2 and CO2/CH4 mixtures.

A CuBTC (copper(ii) benzene-1,3,5-tricarboxylate) metal organic framework (MOF) and graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets were introduced into a semi-crystalline PVDF to produce mixed matrix membranes (MMMs) to promote gas separation performance.

[BMIM][PF6] and its methylated form, [BMMIM][PF6] were incorporated into CuBTC to examine the effect of methylation of ionic liquids (ILs) on the gas separation performance of the corresponding IL/metal–organic framework (MOF) composites.

<div><b>Abstract</b><br></div><div>In this paper, we report a simple approach to study the fundamental aspect of light-responsive metal organic framework (MOF) in UiO-66 topology through a mixed-ligand approach. Apart from change in the structural property, the loading of azobenzene linker inside the framework also affects the CO<sub>2</sub> light-responsive property and CO<sub>2</sub>/N<sub>2</sub> selectivity which could help to design future low-energy CO<sub>2</sub> adsorbents. Further study to incorporate the MOFs into mixed matrix membranes also indicates the benefit of higher azobenzene loading in the MOF to enhance the CO2/N2 separation performance since it can improve the separation performance which could not be obtained in non-functionalized fillers.</div><div><br></div><div><b>Data Repository</b></div><div>Research data and additional high-resolution images are available from the open repository: https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.2533852</div>

The SBU of soc-MOF was in situ modified with imidazole (IM) molecules to construct the soc-MOF-IM polycrystalline membrane, which can be an efficient strategy to regulate the gas separation performance of MOF membranes.
