For the separation of methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) and methanol mixtures, we investigated the pervaporation performance of a blend membrane made from cellulose acetate and cellulose acetate hydrogen phthalate. At first the influence of the blend composition was studied with a certain feed mixture.
A new kind of membrane was prepared by blending poly(acrylic acid) with cellulose acetate propionate for the separation of ethyl tert-butyl ether and ethanol mixtures. The properties of the membranes were evaluated by the pervaporation separation of mixtures of ethyl tert-butyl ether/ethanol and the
Several copolymers of acrylonitrile (AN) were synthesized. Methanol selective membranes were prepared from these copolymers of AN. The other monomers in the copolymers were selected on the basis of their solubility parameter values relative to those of methanol. These were hydroxyethyl methacrylate,
## Abstract Binary blends and their blend membranes of cellulose acetate (CA) and poly(vinyl butyral) (PVB) are prepared by solution blending. The compatibility of the blends is studied by viscometry and Fourier transform IR. It is found that the incompatibility of the blends is markedly manifested
