Abstract
  • A multidisciplinary approach was used for delineating the mechanisms controlling water sorption into modified block co-poly-(ether/amide) (PEBAX) membranes. In particular, incorporation of aromatic sulfonamide (KET) into the polymer matrix led to a nonlinear increase of water sorption in the membrane. The modification in sorption was accompanied by a nonlinear behavior in membrane surface energies. Infrared analysis revealed a different availability and accessibility of free polar groups supporting the formation of hydrogen bonding as a function of modifier concentration. A combination of both experimental and theoretical procedures was used to analyze the molecular processes of water sorption on PEBAX membranes. Molecular dynamics (MD) and quantum chemical (QC) calculations demonstrated that the formation of KET-KET dimers in the polymeric matrix led to a decrease in the interaction energy between water and mod ifiers. In addition, no variations in the dipole moments of water-dimer structures were found in comparison to a single KET and water-KET molecule. The formation of water-dimer complexes at higher concentration of modifier decreases the number of the dipole moment, thus preventing the polarization of polymer chains. (literal)
