The pervaporation separation of water-isopropanol mixtures was carried out using carboxymethylated poly(vinyl alcohol) (CMPVA) composite membranes. Carboxymethylated PVA (CMPVA) was synthesized by reacting PVA with various concentrations of monochloroacetic acid. Substitution efficiency of the CMPVA

✦ Synopsis
A series of poly(hexamethylene sebacate) (PHS), with molecular weight in a range of 890 -2200, based polyurethanes (PU), were synthesized by solution polymerization with different kinds of isocyanate and chain extender and two kinds of polymerization methods. All the PHS-based PU membranes exhibited selectivity towards styrene during the pervaporation of styrene-ethylbenzene mixtures, and the properties of sorption and pervaporation were related to the composition of the PU membranes. Membranes with a low hard-segment content and by two-stage polymerization method exhibited high permselectivity.
