▎ 摘　　要

This manuscript reports for the first-time the application of Laser-Induced Graphene (LIG) fabricated on polysulfone as a highly permselective asymmetric membrane for separation of hydrogen and carbon dioxide. Prior work has shown that LIG can be photothermally formed on the surface of a polymeric substrate; this method is rapid and scalable and has previously been applied for aqueous ultrafiltration membranes on polysulfone, polyethersulfone, and polyphenylsulfone substrates. LIG/polysulfone gas separation membranes combine the molecular sieving mechanism of LIG with the solution-diffusion mechanism of polysulfone while enhancing both H-2:CO2 selectivity and H-2 permeance. These membranes achieved an H-2:CO2 selectivity of 30.5 +/- 1.4 and H-2 permeance of 176.4 +/- 19.5 GPU (1 GPU = 3.35 x 10(-10 )mol m(-2) s(-1) Pa-1). This rapid surface modification of conventional polysulfone membranes with a LIG layer has a potential industrial application for high throughput hydrogen separation. (C) 2021 Elsevier Ltd.
